Fully renovated in 2018 and refreshed in 2025, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath home blends clean modern design with the space and privacy rarely found in South Austin. Every room and outdoor area has been thoughtfully reimagined for natural light, comfort, and connection.
Inside, Shoji White and Greek Villa paint from Sherwin-Williams’ Emerald line set a soft, refined backdrop. Nordic Oak LVP flooring runs throughout, complementing the open layout and large picture-frame windows that flood the home with light. The kitchen features fresh butcher block countertops, a modern tile backsplash, and all appliances included (refrigerator, dishwasher, washer, and dryer).
The primary suite offers a retreat-like experience with a double walk-in shower featuring a rainfall showerhead and full-length tile bench. Both bathrooms are fully updated with modern fixtures and clean finishes.
Outside, the professionally designed, one-of-a-kind backyard is fully xeriscaped and irrigated, featuring a mature grapevine, flowering jasmine, a floating deck, and a raised 10×10 turf lounge for yoga, sunbathing, or quiet evenings. Tall hedges, privacy fencing, and no rear neighbors make the space feel secluded and serene.
Additional highlights include a four-car driveway, full-size front yard, partially finished garage ready for conversion, and a 30-amp exterior plug for an EV or Airstream. Minutes from South Lamar, Central Market, and Michelin-rated BBQ, this home is move-in ready and designed for effortless Austin living.
