Description
A rare opportunity at the iconic corner of South Congress Avenue and West Live Oak Street. You truly can’t get closer to the shops and restaurants of South Congress. Set on nearly one-third of an acre, the 2006-built residence offers three bedrooms plus a dedicated office in the main house, two-and-a-half baths, dining and living areas and a spacious studio loft above the garage with its own private entrance. The home features an expansive covered porch spanning two sides, two fireplaces, and a three-car garage, creating both comfort and functionality. Live in the main house and use the studio loft as a private guest suite or short-term rental. The generous lot size offers incredible potential to truly make this property your own. Whether you envision expanding the existing residence, creating a custom outdoor retreat, or exploring future development possibilities, the opportunities are abundant. With its prime location and substantial lot, this property also presents strong potential for redevelopment or possible rezoning to commercial use (buyer to verify), making it an exceptional investment opportunity in one of Austin’s most desirable areas. Property is also available for lease.
