LOCATION is key to this property in one of Austin’s most desirable neighborhoods, Highland Park West/Balcones Park. Just 7 minutes from downtown Austin via surface streets, no need to get on a highway. Short walk to Mount Bonnell. Close to Blue Ribbon Highland Park Elementary School, coffee shops, retail, dining, banking, parks and grocery stores…everything you need just a short walk or drive away. In addition to the convenience of this neighborhood, there are multiple free community events throughout the year including a July 4th Picnic and Parade with games and prizes, Movies in Perry Park for family fun, a delightful Egg Hunt in the Spring with games and prizes, and an annual meeting of neighbors to get updates about issues in Austin that impact our neighborhood. Neighbors are also invited to the monthly Homeowner’s Association (note: no HOA dues) meetings to stay abreast of neighborhood news. The one-story ranch style home was built in the mid-50’s and has had various updates throughout the years (see attached). The garage was converted into a 5th bedroom and could easily be converted back into a 2-car garage. Lot is of exceptional value as it backs to heavily wooded Camp Mabry, providing a private sanctuary. Plenty of room for a pool. Home is ready for additional updates or can be scraped to build your dream home. Note: could be decent view of downtown if second story is added. Feeds into coveted schools of Austin ISD: Highland Park Elementary / Lamar Middle / McCallum High. Your search is over – here it is!
