Upstairs, three additional bedrooms include a private guest suite with full bath and two bedrooms connected by a Jack-and-Jill bath. A second living area with built-in wet bar opens to a balcony with sweeping downtown views, and a second laundry hookup adds exceptional convenience.
Above the detached two-car garage, the 541-square-foot guest apartment features its own private entrance from the side street, full kitchen, full bath, laundry closet, built-in storage, and screened balcony. Ideal for guests, multigenerational living, a private office, or rental income, the apartment has a proven history of successful rental use. The private courtyard-style backyard is designed for entertaining with an expansive deck, built-in fire pit, low-maintenance turf, and room to add a pool.
Additional features include solar panels, standing-seam metal roof, natural gas generator, and EV charger. Located near Zilker Park, Barton Springs, the Hike-and-Bike Trail, S. Lamar's acclaimed restaurants, and downtown Austin, and zoned to Zilker Elementary, O.
Henry Middle School, and Austin High, this is a rare opportunity to own a spacious, flexible home in one of Austin's most coveted neighborhoods!
