Located along one of East Austin’s most rapidly transforming corridors, this single-story, three-bedroom, two-bathroom single-family home just off of Springdale Rd presents a rare entry point into 78721. Whether you choose to renovate the existing layout and make it your own or redevelop the plot from the ground up, the real value lies in the dirt and the location. Sitting on a 0.15-acre lot, the property offers immediate potential on its own, but the true opportunity unlocks with the adjacent 0.16-acre lot also available for purchase. Combined, the two parcels yield a large 0.31-acre canvas in an area where contiguous land is virtually impossible to find. The location places you right in the mix of East Austin’s premier destination spots. You are minutes from the Springdale General complex, local coffee roasters, art studios, and dining along East 12th and Airport Boulevard. Downtown Austin is less than five miles away, while US-183 provides direct routing to the Austin-Bergstrom International Airport in under 10 minutes.
