About this home
Prime redevelopment opportunity in one of Austin’s most sought-after locations. This .21-acre corner lot in Zilker offers exceptional potential for new construction or a complete reimagining of the existing structure. The current improvements include a 3-bedroom, 2-bath home with a carport, expansive deck, tool shed, and a 400 sq. ft. workshop. The property is enhanced with an EV charger and owned solar panels, adding value for those considering renovation.
