A Rare South Austin Gem on 2 Acres – Where Charm Meets Convenience Welcome to your own private slice of Hill Country paradise—just minutes from downtown Austin! Nestled on a quiet, tree-canopied 2-acre lot in one of South Austin’s most coveted, rarely available neighborhoods, this enchanting property is a true unicorn. From the moment you arrive, the property stuns with its majestic oak trees, sprawling front porches (yes, plural!), and picture-perfect curb appeal. Whether you're sipping coffee on a porch swing or watching the sunset twinkle through the branches, it's impossible not to feel at peace here. Step inside to a warm and spacious floor plan where the primary suite and dedicated office (hello, French doors!) are conveniently located on the first floor. An open-concept kitchen and dining space flow seamlessly into the living area—perfect for both entertaining and cozy nights in. Head outside and prepare to fall in love all over again. The backyard is truly a showstopper: a sparkling pool, twinkle lights strung above a built-in grill area, and multiple covered porches ideal for lazy afternoons or lively gatherings. It’s the kind of outdoor space that turns every weekend into a staycation. Oh, and did we mention the goats? Yes, you can have goats/chickens adding a whimsical touch to your daily routine and reminding you that you're living the good life close to nature and your South Austin roots. Whether it’s the towering oaks, the dreamy porches, the entertainer’s backyard, or the unbeatable location—you’ll be hard-pressed to pick a favorite feature. And you don’t have to. This one-of-a-kind home has it all. Don't miss your chance to own a slice of serenity just minutes from the heartbeat of Austin.
