THE HOME, IN THE LISTING AGENT’S WORDS

A closer look.

Discover the charm of cottage-style living in this beautifully updated 2-bedroom, 1-bath condo nestled in the heart of East Riverside. Offering the rare combination of single-story living with no neighbors above or below, this inviting home features a private, gated front patio overlooking the community pool, creating a peaceful retreat just minutes from the city's growing East Riverside corridor. Inside, vaulted ceilings in the living room and primary bedroom create an airy, open feel, while wood-look flooring, a cozy fireplace, and a neutral color palette provide warmth and timeless appeal. The thoughtfully remodeled kitchen features quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, updated cabinetry, and a stylish tile backsplash. The renovated bathroom showcases a dual vanity and an oversized walk-in shower, blending comfort with modern design. Set within a lush, park-like community, residents enjoy a tranquil atmosphere with exceptional access to Downtown Austin, Lady Bird Lake, Austin-Bergstrom International Airport, Oracle Campus, and the South Shore District. Convenient access to Riverside Drive, Highway 71, US-183, IH-35, CapMetro, and UT shuttle routes makes commuting easy, while nearby restaurants, coffee shops, and hike-and-bike trails offer the best of Austin living just moments from home. One assigned parking space plus ample guest parking. HOA dues include water, sewer, and trash. Recent updates include laminate flooring throughout, fresh paint, new door knobs and updated ceiling fans.
