About this home

Open House scheduled on Saturday, April 11th from 12 noon to 2pm. Tucked into the heart of Austin’s historic Pemberton Heights, one of the most desirable neighborhoods in the City of Austin, this charming 3-bedroom, 2-bath home blends 1939 character with a prime location. Perfectly positioned on an 8200sf+ corner lot, this home welcomes you from the start, with a covered front porch and side entry 2-car garage that showcases a settled, stately appeal.

As you step inside, sunlight filters through oversized windows, casting a soft glow across light wood floors and terracotta tile. The current layout offers flexibility to host larger gatherings, with the dining room flowing into the kitchen and living room. The kitchen expands into a flexible bonus area perfectly positioned for a secondary living, dining, or kitchen expansion. Each of the three current bedrooms are generous in size and private.

If a gut renovation is what you have in mind, this home has the bones to start from scratch and make it yours! If a redevelopment opportunity is your plan, the large corner lot in the best possible location can’t be beat.

As you move outside, the backyard offers a shaded patio that opens to a grassy backyard with plenty of room to add custom details.

And then there’s the location, which is everything. Just beyond your doorstep, walking trails, parks, local restaurants/nightlife and shopping are within close reach. Within a stone’s throw is the University of Texas, Downtown Austin, South Congress corridor, Lady Bird Lake and easy access to Mopac for easy commute around the city.
