Property Overview

This end-unit condo at 1601 Miriam Ave in East Austin delivers urban convenience with a light-filled interior that punches above its 640-square-foot footprint. Vaulted ceilings and strategic south-facing windows eliminate western heat while flooding the space with natural light from sunrise to sunset, creating an airy feel that makes every square inch count. The townhome-style layout stacks living quarters on the second floor above a private attached garage with heated storage, while solid flooring throughout eliminates carpet entirely. Located just a three-minute walk from MLK Station, this property positions residents on Austin's Red Line corridor—reaching downtown, UT, and the Capitol without a car dependency.

Situated in the heart of East Austin's cultural renaissance, 1601 Miriam Ave sits steps from the neighborhood's thriving restaurant and brewery scene while maintaining proximity to the area's historic character and modern development. The HOA-managed Chestnut Commons community handles common area maintenance and grounds, keeping upkeep minimal. At $391 per square foot, this unit sits 22 percent below the area median, offering genuine value in one of Austin TX's most dynamic neighborhoods.

Agent Description

Welcome to your East Austin home! MLK Station is a three minute walk from the front door. From there, the Red Line runs downtown and north through Austin, and CapMetro Route 465 travels the same corridor directly to the University of Texas - only one ride to campus, the Capitol, and downtown. Owning here means a car is a convenience, not a requirement. Vaulted ceilings and a light filled southern exposure define the interior. Windows face south, north, and east, pulling daylight through the home from sunrise to sunset. There are no western windows, which means none of the punishing late-afternoon heat. The expanded ceiling height and light provide an airy spaciousness that makes the space live far larger than its footprint. The townhome-style layout places all living space on the second floor, above a private attached garage with first-floor entry. Solid flooring runs throughout the home. No carpet anywhere! The garage is attached and sizable, with a dedicated storage nook for bikes, luggage, and seasonal items. The neighborhood offers proximity and convenience. Sky Market is a short walk for daily essentials. Birdie's, Nixta Taqueria, King Bee, Nunya, The Wheel, and Sour Duck Market are all within the immediate East 12th and MLK corridor. Manor Road's coffee and restaurant row sits just north. H-E-B on East 7th and the Mueller district are minutes away by car. The HOA is professionally managed with reasonable dues. The refrigerator, washer, and dryer convey with an accepted offer, allowing you to move in on day one and start living. This property qualifies for an exclusive buyer incentive! Eligible buyers may receive lender credits toward closing costs and below-market financing options through a preferred lending partner, designed to enhance affordability and minimize buyer's costs.
