Property Overview

This 1918-built East Austin residence on 10th Street captures the neighborhood's perfect blend of historic character and contemporary opportunity. Recently renovated throughout—from the kitchen and full bath to new flooring, mini-split systems, and structural foundation work—the two-bedroom home sits on an expansive 5,915-square-foot lot shaded by mature oak, pecan, and elm trees. The property's true versatility lies in its bonus: a vintage 1989 Airstream trailer in the backyard, currently generating income and offering flexible use as guest quarters or creative workspace.

Owner-occupants will appreciate the thoughtfully updated 824-square-foot main home paired with two utility sheds for laundry and storage, all accessed via convenient alley parking. Investors recognize the income potential: the front house and Airstream trailer currently command up to $3,200 monthly in rent. An architectural site plan is available, indicating expansion possibilities for those seeking development opportunities within East Austin's thriving cultural corridor.

The property's $480,000 price reflects its premium position among comparable East Austin sales, justified by the recent renovations, dual-income structure, and rare combination of walkable neighborhood access with genuine privacy. This location puts residents within minutes of the area's celebrated restaurants, breweries, and galleries while maintaining the quiet, tree-lined charm that defines Austin's historic eastside character.
