Opportunity, location, and potential come together on this quiet cul-de-sac in East Austin's established Johnston Terrace neighborhood. Whether you're a first-time homebuyer looking to build sweat equity, an investor searching for your next project, or someone ready to renovate and create a dream home, this is the kind of opportunity buyers are always asking for. Situated on a spacious, tree-filled lot, the property offers plenty of room for entertaining, gardening, or future expansion. Directly across the street from the highly regarded Liberal Arts and Science Academy (LASA), the location provides exceptional convenience while placing you just minutes from Downtown Austin, Mueller, Austin-Bergstrom International Airport, major employers, parks, hike-and-bike trails, local restaurants, coffee shops, and everything that makes East Austin one of the city's most dynamic areas. The home is located within the 500-year floodplain, meaning flood insurance is not required by most lenders.

Johnston Terrace, located between Airport Boulevard and Springdale Road, is a residential and industrial Austin neighborhood with mid-century ranch homes and warehouse-lined backstreets. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Airport Blvd & Springdale Rd corridor, where taquerias, auto shops, and small maker spaces share the same stretch of asphalt. Streets read as practical and low-slung, with deep lots, mature trees, and a mix of original brick facades and updated exteriors. The nearby Southern Walnut Creek Trail adds a long, linear greenway feel for walking and biking. For local pillars, the Austin Bouldering Project, Batch Craft Beer & Kolaches, and Sahara Lounge anchor nights and weekends with climbing, kolaches, and live music.
