7689 Delwau Ln, Austin, TX, 78725
About This Home
Discover a property unlike any other at 7689 Delwau Lane on 1.14 acres between Delwau Lane & Boggy Creek in east Austin. This hidden retreat offers rare privacy & natural beauty minutes from city amenities. The primary home sits high on the bluff w/commanding views of the lowlands, mature trees, and Boggy Creek, while a charming stone cottage rests at the foot of the bluff. Both have been substantially remodeled w/long-term reliability in mind. Key improvements include remodeled kitchen & shower, drainage work, foundation stabilization (transferable lifetime warranty on the cottage), roof/siding repairs, new gutters/drainage, HVAC maintenance, quarterly pest prevention, upgraded doors/windows, & water infiltration repairs. The grounds feature cleared overgrowth, retaining walls, & established fruit trees: fig, pear, plum, peach, pomegranate. Direct access to Boggy Creek banks—with the southern border in the creek—allows launching a kayak for a short paddle to the Colorado River southeast of Pleasant Valley. Wildlife roams grassy fields amid mature trees in this secluded setting. Nearby Walnut Creek Trail offers biking/walking; a future 68-acre park will add more recreation. Lowlands are partially in the 100-year flood plain; the stone cottage is not. The primary home is a successful Airbnb, sold fully furnished with appliances, window treatments, smoke/CO detectors, Starlink internet, & 240V EV charging at both homes—ready for immediate rental or personal use. The owner resides in the cottage. Enjoy an open floor plan, chef’s kitchen w/high-end appliances/quartz island, two en-suite bedrooms, floor-to-ceiling windows w/views, & large deck. Under 15 minutes to downtown, <10 minutes to the airport, near Highway 183, & 10 minutes to Holly District dining. Delwau Lane is a quiet street w/limited homes. Flexible for primary residence w/guest house, multigenerational living, income production, or peaceful nature escape. A true rural retreat in the heart of Austin.
