Property Description

Just one block from Brentwood Elementary, this single-family home carries the soul of classic Austin ? from the era when Allandale and Brentwood were first drawn onto the map. It sits on a generous 0.28-acre (12,253 sq. ft.) corner lot, shaded by mature oaks and pecans that simply can't be planted overnight.Today, this property stands at an exciting crossroads: a seasoned fixer-upper ready for a renovation that honors its mid-century bones, or a cleared slate for a custom-built dream home in one of Austin's most desirable in-town neighborhoods. Either way, what you're buying is irreplaceable ? the corner lot, the location, the legacy of a street where neighbors still know each other by name.Quiet, canopied streets surrounded by thoughtfully updated mid-century homes ? this is what neighborhood feel actually looks like. And the Burnet Road corridor just steps away keeps getting better: new sidewalks, bike paths, and streetscape upgrades are underway as part of the city's multi-year Burnet Road corridor project, making the area increasingly walkable.The neighborhood's commercial spine delivers it all ? Mama Betty's for Tex-Mex, District Kitchen for a date-night New American menu, Boulevard Social for craft cocktails, and Pocha Is Back for late-night Korean pocha vibes, plus Sugarwolf Bakery for coffee and pastries. It's one of Austin's most authentic and evolving local dining corridors.78757 sits close to the Domain's tech corridors, central Austin, and major thoroughfares like MoPac and US-183 ? a location that works for commuters, remote workers, and everyone in between.An incredible, level corner lot in Brentwood ? 12,253 sq. ft. / 0.2813 acres.
