78704 lifestyle awaits you at this fully renovated townhome in the heart of South Central Austin. The gourmet kitchen is a true showpiece, featuring European overlay cabinets, Quartz counters, a custom large-format tile backsplash, a matte black undermount sink, and high-end stainless steel appliances. Luxury vinyl floors run throughout — ultra-durable, easy to clean, and with no carpet anywhere in the home. Step outside to a private, fully-fenced yard with fresh grass, perfect for entertaining and keeping your furry friends happy; the home faces west, so the backyard stays shaded through the evenings, ideal for after-work relaxing. This lock-and-leave townhome offers super-convenient access to both MoPac and I-35, and you're just a budget-friendly rideshare from the airport, making it a perfect fit for on-the-go travelers. Behind the walls, everything has been redone: all-new electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and a standing-seam metal roof, plus a full spray-foam envelope for exceptional energy efficiency, and new MI windows throughout — including large picture windows that flood the home with natural light. The location is unbeatable: walk to Radio Coffee & Beer for legendary caffeinated libations, cold craft beers, and live music, all while sitting right between the South Lamar District and SoCo. You're also a short, budget-friendly rideshare from iconic live music venues like Saxon Pub and C-Boys, plus downtown and Rainey Street, and an easy bike ride to the Sunset Valley Farmers Market, Central Market, and countless dining and entertainment destinations nearby. Looking ahead, this home sits just blocks from the planned Brodie Oaks development at the intersection of Lamar and Ben White — a 37-acre mixed-use project reported to rival The Domain and further elevate South Austin's appeal.
South Lamar, located between Lady Bird Lake and Ben White Boulevard, is a walkable and entertainment-forward Austin neighborhood with a strip-mall-meets-bungalow streetscape and a late-night dining scene. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around South Lamar Boulevard near Alamo Drafthouse Cinema, where marquees, patios, and food-truck lots keep the sidewalks in motion. Alamo Drafthouse Cinema, Uchi, and The Broken Spoke anchor the area’s cultural rhythm. Mid-century apartments and newer mixed-use buildings line the corridor, while side streets hold older cottages and small courtyards. Pocket parks and the nearby lake trail shape daily routines. The terrain rises toward Zilker, with skyline views appearing between live oaks.
