Description
Tucked beneath a canopy of mature trees on an oversized, shaded lot in the heart of University Hills West, this charming Austin home feels like a private retreat with the spirit of a Hill Country hideaway. Step inside to find warm wood floors guiding you through two inviting living spaces—each with its own personality. The front living area welcomes cozy gatherings, while the back living room steals the show with a wood-lined ceiling and a striking stucco fireplace that radiates character and comfort. Upstairs, all four bedrooms offer peaceful privacy and soft natural light, but the primary suite is the true escape. A spacious layout, recessed lighting, ceiling fan, and your very own balcony create a personal sanctuary. The primary bath impresses with a large walk-in shower and thoughtful finishes throughout. Outside is where this home shines even brighter. Lounge in the cowboy pool, entertain on the expansive lot, or unwind as the sun dips below the treetops and the creek behind the home adds a soothing soundtrack. With its unique charm, versatile spaces, and a prime location in 78723, this is more than a home—it’s a lifestyle rooted in Austin’s easygoing, creative spirit. University Hills is known for its leafy streets, mid-century homes, and proximity to outdoor escapes like Bartholomew District Park, which features trails, a pool, disc golf, and sports courts. Food lovers can enjoy nearby favorites like Hank’s, a stylish café with breezy patios, and The Front Page, a local watering hole with great cocktails. For groceries and essentials, H-E-B is just minutes away, and Mueller—with its farmers’ market, lake, and Alamo Drafthouse Cinema—offers endless entertainment just a short drive down the road. Plus, with easy access to UT Austin, Downtown, and ABIA, 78723 blends the best of relaxed neighborhood living with the perks of urban Austin life.
