About This Home
Welcome home to 7402 Gaines Mill Ln, a beautifully updated 3-bedroom, 2-bath retreat in one of South Austin's most sought-after neighborhoods (78745). Set on a spacious 0.23-acre corner lot with no HOA, this home offers the space and freedom families want, plus a fully fenced backyard shaded by mature oaks — room to relax, entertain, garden, or add a pool. A 2-car garage and extended covered patio round out a home built for everyday life. Inside, enjoy brand-new wide-plank laminate flooring throughout (no carpet), fresh paint, and a welcoming living room with a gas fireplace, stone surround, and cedar mantel. The main-floor primary suite features a walk-in closet and a brand-new spa-like walk-in shower, with direct patio access. Upstairs, a second living area opens to a bright white kitchen with quartz counters, soft-close cabinets, stainless appliances, gas range, and a breakfast bar. French doors lead from the dining area to a private balcony overlooking the backyard. Two more spacious bedrooms with walk-in closets share a full bath with a soaking tub — plenty of room for kids, guests, or a home office. Smart home features throughout: Philips Hue color-changing smart bulbs, a Nest thermostat, Nest Protect smoke/CO alarm, Nest exterior cameras, and Yale smart door locks for everyday convenience and peace of mind. Major systems — roof, HVAC, and water heater — were all updated in 2019. Refrigerator, washer, dryer, all smart home features, and upstairs TV convey. Zoned to Cunningham Elementary (7/10) and Covington Middle (6/10), both strong Austin ISD schools. Minutes from the Menchaca corridor, Sunset Valley shopping, South Congress, St. Elmo, and downtown Austin — this is the rare combination of space, updates, and smart-home convenience families are searching for, with no HOA.
