Extremely rare opportunity to purchase 2 lots spanning just over 2.7 ACRES less than 10 miles from downtown Austin! Just across William Cannon from Legend Oaks sits a quiet, coveted neighborhood where every homesite is at least 1 acre, and current zoning has protections from increased density. This is a prime location with the perfect amount of open space and beautiful trees. For almost 30 years, the sellers have loved not only the peaceful country atmosphere of their property, but also the convenience of being just a short drive from the heart of Austin. Even closer is all that South Austin and Sunset Valley have grown to offer. The home itself was built in 1948, and has been very well cared for throughout the years. There’s a large 70 ft. outbuilding in the back of the property with sewer line already in place, just not connected. The home is very charming and liveable as is. The greatest value is in the land, having 2 buildable lots, and the location. You won’t find another property this large that’s this close to downtown at this price. If you’re looking for a place to build your dream home, then why not live in your own house while it’s built right on your other lot in your own backyard? This location is zoned to some of the highest rated schools in the Austin area. You absolutely need to see it in person to truly appreciate everything this property has to offer!
*Taxable value of land and structures on it ("additions") is determined regularly by local assessors and does not affect market price.
