BEAUTIFUL DOWNTOWN VIEWS! Truly is a rare find! The Talisman is a small gated 63-unit condo community nestled amongst trees on a hilltop, just south of Lamar on Barton Springs Road. Very easily accessible, community pool, easy parking, and one car garage. INCREDIBLE LOCATION- two blocks from Barton Springs Pool, Zilker Park, and the hike and bike trails. Steps away from Juiceland, Thom's Market, Barton Springs Saloon, and dozens of other well-known restaurants and shops. This is a special floor plan with two french doors that open up to the front porch as well as a private balcony off of the main suite. There are 2 primary bedroom suites. Both bedrooms have a private full bath and 2 closets each. The multilevel floor plan creates a nice privacy buffer between the bedrooms. Schools- Zilker Elementary, O. Henry Middle School, and Austin High.
