About This Home

Modern architecture meets unmistakable East Austin style in this striking 3 bed, 2.5 bath home with a dedicated office, built in 2021 and enhanced by a recently installed roof in 2024. Soaring ceilings, expansive windows, and clean contemporary lines fill the home with natural light, creating an airy atmosphere for everyday living and entertaining. The open-concept living area flows into a chef’s kitchen with a waterfall quartz peninsula, custom cabinetry, designer tile backsplash, and premium stainless steel appliances. A dramatic wall of sliding glass doors opens to an oversized deck overlooking mature trees and peaceful green space, ideal for morning coffee, dinner with friends, or quiet evenings outside. Upstairs, three well-balanced bedrooms include a stunning primary suite with vaulted ceilings, a spa-inspired bath, and an oversized walk-in closet. The two secondary bedrooms each offer similar comfort and function, while the main-level office adds flexibility for working from home, creative pursuits, or guests. The backyard offers a rare sense of privacy with xeriscape landscaping, a fire pit, and a generous lawn backing to lush green space. Beneath the home, a substantial basement with its own private entrance, high ceilings, and a finished slab foundation offers exceptional storage. An expansive covered patio beneath the upper deck provides shaded outdoor living with room to entertain or explore the potential for a future screened porch. Enjoy quick access to neighborhood coffee shops, breweries, local restaurants, live music, and outdoor recreation, with Mueller, the Southwest Greenway, Downtown, UT, the MLK Jr. Light Rail Station, Highway 183, and Austin-Bergstrom International Airport all just minutes away. Ask about a possible 10% down, no-PMI financing option for qualified buyers.
