Two homes, one corner lot, in one of East Austin's most walkable pockets. 1,894 total square feet across a main house and a fully self-contained casita, which means this property does something most listings in this band cannot: it gives you a second address worth of function without a second mortgage. Both structures were taken to a major renovation in 2020, and the sellers have kept it current since, most recently with fresh interior paint and refreshed landscaping. The 1,444 SF main house lives the way people actually use a home. Light wood floors, blue cabinetry, and a wall of living room windows keep it bright from morning through afternoon, and the kitchen opens straight into the living and dining areas so the cook is never stuck alone in another room. A walk-in pantry just off the kitchen keeps the bulk hauls out of sight. Two additional bedrooms and a second full bath sit down the hall. The primary suite is the generous one, with an ensuite bath and an oversized walk-in closet the sellers joked could pass as an extra room. Step out the side entrance and the 450 SF casita is the piece that sets this property apart. Its own full bathroom, kitchen, and mini-split make it genuinely separate: a work-from-home office where the Zoom calls stay uninterrupted, a guest suite that lets friends and family visit without turning your house into a hotel, or long-term quarters for extended stays. The 9,000+ SF corner lot is fully fenced and shaded by mature trees, with room for a swing, a fire pit for cool nights, a large side patio, and a deck out back. Two remotely controlled gates open onto two separate driveways with secure parking for four full-size vehicles. Decks and fence were repaired and repainted in 2026. Downtown is 5 minutes, Google and Oracle are just as close, UT is 10, and ABIA is 15, with a playground within walking distance and the coffee shops, taco joints, and breweries East Austin is known for right around the corner. Google Fiber available.
