A large screened deck at the back provides an idyllic setting for outdoor entertainment or quiet contemplation. Large pecan trees offer ample shade, and the professionally landscaped backyard hosts an array of small fruit trees, including peaches, pears, plums, loquats, mandarins, figs, and persimmons, creating a personal edible garden for the culinary enthusiast. Additionally, a large sliding gate at the back of the yard allows for easy access from the alley, presenting a unique opportunity for the future owner to construct a garage if desired.
This home offers an invitation to be part of a vibrant community known for its picturesque streets, proximity to local amenities, and a sense of belonging, making it an unmatched offering in one of Austin’s most sought-after neighborhoods.
