A single-story home on a quiet interior street in Maple Run, an established South Austin neighborhood off Davis Lane. Mature shade trees, a limestone and navy exterior, and a brand new cedar privacy fence set it up well from the street. A gabled portico with an arched transom over the front door covers the entry, and a low planting bed of drought-tolerant grasses and shrubs runs along the front of the house.

Inside, the living and dining rooms open to each other under a vaulted, beamed ceiling, with an arched transom window pulling light in above the fireplace wall. The wood-burning fireplace has a tile surround and a gas hookup. Tile flooring runs through the main living areas, so there is no carpet to replace. A breakfast bar connects the kitchen to the living space, and a door off the dining area opens to the back yard.

Ceiling fans, a dining chandelier, and solar screens on the front windows are already in place. Three bedrooms and two full baths sit on one level across 1,416 square feet, all on a 6,220 square foot lot. The primary bath has been redone with large-format marble-look tile, a stone mosaic accent band, a teak fold-down bench, and both fixed and handheld shower heads.

Out back, a crushed granite patio replaced the original wood deck and the yard is fully fenced with new cedar pickets. The garage is attached, two cars wide, with a deep driveway in front of it.

The roof was replaced in 2018. The home runs on gas heat, a gas water heater, gas cooking, and electric central air. There are no HOA dues and no mandatory association here.

The kitchen was updated with quartz countertops and new 2020 model stove and dishwashers.

The house is vacant, so a quick close is easy. Creative terms are on the table and worth a conversation.
