About this home

*PRICE DROP* Welcome to 5108 Emerald Forest, just minutes from downtown yet tucked into a home that feels calm and comfortable. This adorable 3 bed, 2 bath home is located in the established Old Manchaca neighborhood, where you’ll have all the big routes right at your fingertips. South 1st, South Congress, Ben White, I-35, Lamar and Menchaca all within 2 miles. Not to mention two large shopping districts, Sunset Valley and Westgate a mere 3.5 miles away. St. Elmo Elementary, and two preschools are within 1 mile, as well as Bedichek Middle and Crockett High Schools. Inside this cozy home you’ll find an easy, open layout that flows naturally from kitchen to dining to living. With rich cabinets, granite countertops and stainless steel appliances, including refrigerator, this compact kitchen delivers style without the fuss. Everything is close at hand, making cooking fast, easy and enjoyable. All three bedrooms feel comfortable and functional giving you room to relax, work or host guests. Both bathrooms have been updated, with the second featuring a full shower and tub combo, while the primary bedroom enjoys its own ensuite, with a modern standing shower. A handy hallway closet gives extra storage for all the little things that need a home. Step outside to discover a shaded backyard that’s built to be enjoyed. Mature trees, a fabulous pergola and a second covered patio with smoker included, set you up for weekend hangs, or that end of day exhale. Grill, smoke, or simply sip a cold drink, this yard is ready for it all. There’s also a storage shed out back to tuck away tools, bikes, or anything else you’d rather keep out of sight.
Whether you’re heading downtown, grabbing a morning coffee, groceries or a lite bite, hitting a trail, going shopping or walking the kiddos to school, life just runs smoother here. Location doesn’t get any better, and the home’s just as easy to love!

5108 Emerald Forest is ready to welcome you home.
