Property Overview

This detached rear residence at 7711 Watson Street in Crestview offers rare privacy and independence within one of Austin's most walkable neighborhoods. Originally part of a legally divided duplex, this 772-square-foot home stands completely separate with no shared walls, a fenced backyard, and the freedom of a low-maintenance lifestyle. The property has received thoughtful updates including fresh interior and exterior paint, new light fixtures throughout, stainless steel appliances, and recently replaced cast iron sewer plumbing—all essential for long-term peace of mind.

Crestview's appeal extends beyond this home's solid bones and smart upgrades. The neighborhood's proximity to MetroRail access and beloved spots like Little Deli & Pizzeria creates a walkable urban village feel while maintaining the mid-century charm that defines Central Austin. At $453 per square foot, this property sits right at the area median, delivering exceptional value for a detached home in such a desirable location.

The front residence (Unit A) is also available separately, creating an unusual opportunity for investors or buyers seeking flexibility. Whether you're drawn to Crestview's active community vibe, its transit accessibility, or the appeal of owning a standalone home with genuine privacy, 7711 Watson Street presents a practical entry point into one of Austin's most established neighborhoods.
