Property Description

A hidden gem in the heart of Barton Hills is now available! Nestled on a peaceful, low-traffic street, this .278-acre property backs directly to the Barton Creek Greenbelt, offering stunning, unobstructed views of the limestone canyon. The backyard is thoughtfully landscaped and terraced, providing a private spot to enjoy breathtaking sunsets over the cliffs. The home also features a spacious 743 sq ft partially covered patio, perfect for outdoor gatherings. This well-maintained, single-owner home showcases pride of ownership throughout its 1,870 sq ft single-level ranch-style layout. Inside, you’ll find three generously sized bedrooms and two full bathrooms. The inviting living room with a fireplace, along with a formal den and dining area, has a rich history of hosting Texas’ political dignitaries for conversations and dinner parties! Recent updates include solar-powered 30-watt attic vents, a new dishwasher, garbage disposal, and garage doors. The home is zoned for top-rated schools: Barton Creek Elementary, O’ Henry Middle School, and Austin High School. While the location feels like a serene Hill Country oasis, it’s just minutes away from Barton Springs Pool, Zilker Park, downtown Austin, the vibrant South Lamar area, and SoHo. Nearby, multiple access points to Barton Creek Greenbelt, including Guy Fruh >.5 miles away providing easy access to outdoor adventures. (Kindly be aware that the existing stained glass front door, and kitchen/garage door DO NOT convey with the home. Seller is happy to negotiate replacements as a part of an offer.)
