Investor & Renovation 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 offers an opportunity for an investor, renovator, or buyer with a vision to make improvements and add value over time. The property is being sold as-is and offers flexibility in how the next owner approaches it—whether making updates in phases, taking on a more moderate renovation, or completing a larger rehab. The front home features 3 bedrooms and 1 bathroom, while the converted garage in the rear offers open loft-style living, a full kitchen, and 1 bathroom, creating additional possibilities for the right buyer. Bring your ideas and explore the potential. With two existing structures and a central Austin location close to major thoroughfares, there’s plenty of opportunity to reimagine the property at a pace and scope that makes sense for the next owner. Buyer to independently verify zoning, permitted use, improvements, and property condition.
