1218 Inks Ave. is a 2/1.5 home with an open layout that makes this efficient floorpan live like a much larger home. As you enter you see immediately into the bright, open and spacious kitchen with views into the large living room with access to the back entertaining space with custom landscaping and a water feature. Off of the living room you have a half bath, perfect for guests. Two well-sized bedrooms share a large full bathroom, and are situated away from the living spaces. Other features include built in safe, custom table, whole-house water filtration, tankless hot water, and more. Dedicated parking in front of the home, as well as easy street parking. This quiet, tucked away street is the ideal combination of East Austin walkability and the downtown lifestyle but in a single-family home, with West Austin schools — as it is so close to downtown that it feeds to Matthews/O. Henry/Austin High. You truly can’t get closer to both downtown and the best East Austin has to offer.
*Taxable value of land and structures on it ("additions") is determined regularly by local assessors and does not affect market price.
