2905 Stratford Dr, Austin, TX, 78746
About This Home
Rarely do you find over an acre of perfectly flat, usable land this close to the heartbeat of Austin. Tucked away at 2905 Stratford Lane, this property represents a premier "blank canvas" opportunity in one of the city’s most coveted pockets. Whether you’re looking to take the existing 2,448 sq ft structure and embark on a high-end remodel, expand the footprint to create a sprawling estate, or start fresh with a ground-up custom masterpiece, the potential here is limited only by your imagination. The current home is a solid, well-maintained residence featuring four bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a mix of classic hardwood and tile flooring. With a large kitchen and a spacious main-floor primary suite, it’s entirely livable or rentable while you finalize your architectural plans. However, the true star of the show is the 1.1-acre lot itself. It is exceptionally rare to find this much level acreage just minutes from the iconic Zilker Park and the cool waters of Barton Springs. You’re a stone's throw from the vibrant energy of South Congress, yet tucked away in a setting that offers the kind of privacy and space usually reserved for the outskirts of town. This is more than just a home; it’s a generational opportunity to secure a massive piece of Austin’s landscape and build the lifestyle you’ve always envisioned.
