Original South Austin jewel in an unbeatable location, this home is nestled in a walkable neighborhood near the vibrant SoCo district and brimming with classic mid-century character. Inside, you'll find an open kitchen with white cabinetry, a tile backsplash, and a breakfast bar. There's also a deep pantry closet and a new stainless steel Bosch dishwasher. A skylight brightens the dining room, and the layout offers great flow with 2 living areas, allowing for easy indoor/outdoor entertaining. A dedicated laundry room provides plenty of storage space. Step outside to a large screened-in outdoor living area perfect for enjoying the backyard while keeping bugs away, with a mature tree and surrounding greenery providing privacy and a peaceful backdrop. The property is also recognized as a Certified Wildlife Backyard by the National Wildlife Federation, with native wildflower landscaping front and back that attracts hummingbirds to the patio. Recent updates include a replaced HVAC (2020), roof (2021), and water heater (2023). Adding to the neighborhood's one-of-a-kind charm, a resident peacock roams freely just streets away-an unmistakable reminder of why South Austin and 78704 are known for keeping it weird in the most delightful way. The location is truly special-just blocks from Blunn Creek Nature Preserve, St. Edward's University, and the new HEB flagship on South Congress and Oltorf, with easy access to iconic Austin destinations such as the Barton Creek Greenbelt, Zilker Park, Lady Bird Lake, Barton Springs, and downtown. You'll also be just minutes from South Congress and the newly announced location of the award-winning Austin's Hideout Theater, offering the perfect blend of Austin's lively energy and neighborhood charm.
