Investor & Rehab Opportunity in North Central Austin! Located in the St. John’s neighborhood with convenient access to both I-35 and 183, this 0.1701-acre property is ready for someone with the vision and experience to take on a substantial renovation. The property is being sold as-is and requires significant work throughout, making it an ideal opportunity for a seasoned investor, flipper, or rehabber looking for their next project. The front home offers 3 bedrooms and 1 bathroom, while a converted garage in the rear features open loft-style living, a full kitchen, and 1 bathroom—creating some interesting possibilities for the right buyer. This is not a cosmetic fixer. Bring your contractor, your ideas, and your imagination. With two existing structures and a central Austin location close to major thoroughfares, the potential is here for someone ready to roll up their sleeves and bring this property back to life. Buyer to independently verify zoning, permitted use, improvements, and property condition.
