$1,285,000

Property Overview

This 1946 Oxford Avenue residence sits at the gateway to Barton Hills' most coveted natural amenities, offering direct access to Barton Creek Greenbelt and steps from both Barton Springs Pool and Zilker Park. The 2,052-square-foot home anchors a sprawling 6,250-square-foot lot that includes a detached guest studio and separate single-car garage—rare finds in this established Austin neighborhood. These additional structures create flexible income potential or simply provide the breathing room that defines South Lamar living, where lush Hill Country views meet urban convenience.

The three-bedroom, three-bath layout captures the essence of mid-century Austin living while the mature landscaping creates an instant retreat from the vibrant South Lamar corridor just beyond the property line. Neighbors enjoy walkable access to acclaimed restaurants and shops while remaining insulated from the neighborhood's energetic pace. At $1,285,000, the price positioning reflects the property's unique combination of outdoor access, detached structures, and location within one of Austin's most sought-after zip codes.

Vox Residential Insight

This property's standalone guest studio and detached garage configuration is genuinely rare in Barton Hills, which typically features smaller lots with limited accessory structures. The combination of natural amenities, South Lamar proximity, and architectural flexibility makes this Oxford Avenue offering a distinctive opportunity in an already premium market.

Agent Description

An Urban Oasis with fantastic walkability, tons of natural lighting, large backyard deck, and a detached studio apartment! Stop by the Open House, Saturday (7/18) from 11APM-1PM. We only have the honor to present this unique listing with income-producing potential & at this great price because the property owner has moved out-of-state. With a detached studio & detached single-car garage (rare for the Zilker neighborhood) that's perfect for storing your motorcycle, moped, or whatever fun toys you have; this is the only Zilker property on the market with this walkability, modern upgrades, price point, and opportunities. Being in the heart of Austin, you're a walk or bike ride away from Barton Springs Pool and Zilker Park, and a few steps from so much South Lamar has to offer (Loro, Proud Mary, Desnudo, Opa, San Ginés, Bouldin Acres, and more than we can list). Yet when you're home, find yourself in what feels like the grounds of your own little yoga retreat center. The moment you arrive you're greeted by a large white-flowering crepe myrtle that makes home feel like a fairytale, stonework that reminds us of times past, and landscaping that lets pollinators know you're a friend. From your upstairs balcony, accessible from both the primary bedroom and the upstairs flex space, look down on your bamboo forest and the oversized deck with plenty of room for outdoor living, dining, and recreation--all protected, shaded, and cooled by mature, native live oak and cedar elm trees that tower over your backyard oasis. Inside the main house, enjoy a thoughtfully designed place to call home: a sunlight dining area, intentionally placed in a corner of windows; a living room space separated not by walls but by a cathedral ceiling accented with large wood beams; a kitchen bar ready to accommodate additional seating & space for a quick meal; two additional living areas; and a large primary bedroom. This is the one!
