Entertaining all reasonable offers. The bright kitchen includes granite countertops, gas range, vent hood, deep sink, and skylight. The spacious bedroom features a walk-in closet, ceiling fan, and peaceful tree views. Enjoy outdoor living on the large wood deck and private, tree-lined fenced backyard with fire pit. Walk to Cherrywood Coffeehouse, Patterson Park, and the Boggy Creek Greenbelt, with Mueller, UT, and Downtown Austin just minutes away.

A distinctive opportunity to own a private and versatile home in one of Central Austin’s most desirable neighborhoods.
Cherrywood, located between Airport Boulevard and IH-35, is a residential and artsy Austin neighborhood with mid-century ranch homes and leafy pocket parks. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Manor Rd and Cherrywood Rd corridor, where patios, coffee windows, and late-night bites keep the sidewalks active. Salty Sow and Haymaker serve as local pillars for food-and-drink culture, while the nearby Mueller Lake Park adds a polished outdoor counterpoint. Streets mix tidy bungalows with newer infill, giving blocks a layered, lived-in look. Bike lanes and short blocks connect to Manor Road’s dining strip and the Mueller district’s trails. The pace feels relaxed on side streets, then more kinetic along Manor Road after dark.

Terrific potential as an Airbnb! Close to UT, close to downtown! Very rare opportunity to own a unique duplex in a highly-desireable, central, old Austin neighborhood just a few blocks east of I-35. Jewelbox of a property has been completely remodeled/updated. Built-in bookcases help to make your space count. Newer kitchens gleam with granite countertops, newer cabinetry and newer appliances. Unit A offers a combination washer/dryer in the kitchen; unit B offers a stackable washer and dryer in the primary bedroom's walk-in closet. Unit A offers a loft sleeping space with two roomy closets. Unit B is all one level. Skylights in both units! All new double-paned windows in both units, and sliding glass door in unit B. Please see floorplan under "Tours" tab. Step outside to your huge, individual decks to sit surrounded by towering trees. Walk down a slope to the back yard's perfect firepit space. You'll feel like you're out in the woods. This popular, high-energy neighborhood thrives in hipness, intelligence and joy of life. Witness the patrons of the Cherrywood Coffeehouse -- that's the vibe. Too many eateries and coffee spots to count within a short walking distance! Public transportation closeby. Do not miss out!
