Central Austin has been my home for the last 40 years. It’s changed a bit over time but the constant that hasn’t changed is our cool, laid back, vibe. As you search for a place to call home, you’ll find each neighborhood has it’s own distinct personality.
Depending on price range, housing needs and what’s important to you, you might eventually want a guide to help you solve your personal housing equation. If you do (even if we are not working together) feel free to call or send me an e-mail. I’ll be happy to visit.
This home is neatly tucked away on some of Central Austin’s best very best real estate. Known as the Ridgela neighborhood, it’s situated between the Brykerwoods and Rosedale neighborhoods.
By car it’s about 8 minutes to downtown Austin and 15 minutes to just about anywhere else. By foot you can easily walk to local restaurants like Kerby Lane Cafe, Brick Oven on 35th and Russell’s Bistro and or local boutiques. (pictures below the homes slide show)
Inside, there are high-end finishing like bamboo floors, large windows, spacious bedrooms, over sized walk-in closets, tall ceilings with exposed wood beams in the living room, granite counter tops, top of the line cabinets, an open kitchen, a huge master, slate tiled shower, a large jacuzzi tub, plenty of storage, a generous yard and an automated sprinkler system. If you’ve been waiting for a high quality Central Austin home – this could be it.
The specifics
It’s a 3 bedrooms, 2 Baths 2169 Square Feet attached home built in 2005. It shares one wall with unit A. There are no other units on the lot.
