About This Home

Classic mid-century architecture meets modern comfort in this updated 2-bedroom, 2-bath residence at Cambridge Tower, one of Austin's most iconic and established high-rise communities. Offered as part of an estate, this home presents an exceptional opportunity to enjoy downtown living at an outstanding value. Thoughtfully updated, the residence features a remodeled kitchen, a primary bath with walk-in shower, and the warmth of original parquet flooring in the versatile second bedroom, which also makes an ideal home office. A standout feature is the installation of premium insulated windows and doors throughout the unit—an upgrade that would cost approximately $100,000 to install today—providing enhanced energy efficiency, exceptional sound insulation, and abundant natural light. One of Cambridge Tower's greatest advantages is its truly all-inclusive HOA. Monthly dues include all utilities, high-speed internet, and cable television, providing convenience, simplified budgeting, and meaningful long-term value in today's market. Residents enjoy a recently refreshed lobby, 24/7 security and concierge services, an on-site building manager, attended parking garage with one reserved parking space, a heated oak-shaded pool and spa, fitness center, multipurpose meeting room, and an expansive rooftop terrace offering breathtaking views of the Texas Capitol, the downtown skyline, and the Texas Hill Country. Perfectly positioned in Central Austin, Cambridge Tower is just steps from The University of Texas, Dell Medical Center, the Capitol Complex, museums, restaurants, entertainment, and the city's cultural attractions. Whether you're searching for a full-time residence, a lock-and-leave lifestyle, or a downtown home with timeless character and lasting value, this exceptional property delivers one of the best opportunities available in Austin's urban core.
