    What's special

    Corner lotExpansive deckMature trees
    Prime redevelopment opportunity in one of Austin’s most sought-after locations. This .21-acre corner lot in Zilker offers exceptional potential for new construction or a complete reimagining of the existing structure. The current improvements include a 3-bedroom, 2-bath home with a carport, expansive deck, tool shed, and a 400 sq. ft. workshop. The property is enhanced with an EV charger and owned solar panels, adding value for those considering renovation. Mature trees provide shade and character, further increasing the desirability of the site. The location is unmatched. Zilker Park, Barton Springs Pool, and Lady Bird Lake are close at hand, along with Austin’s most notable cultural events, including the ACL Music Festival, the Trail of Lights, the Kite Festival, and the iconic Zilker Tree.

This offering is ideally positioned for a developer or investor seeking to create a signature project in one of Austin’s premier neighborhoods. Due diligence is required. A.D. Stenger was the architect, there are large trees on the property, and buyer to verify all information and requirements for new construction. Opportunities of this caliber are rare—secure your place in Zilker today.
