Property Overview

This nearly half-acre property on Menchaca Road in Austin's desirable 78704 zip code presents a rare combination of established residential living and significant development potential. The 1,276-square-foot, well-maintained 1946 home sits on an expansive 19,776-square-foot lot—an uncommon find in Central Austin where land this substantial rarely becomes available. The mature grounds feature a productive garden area, dedicated workshop and storage space, and peaceful creek frontage that adds natural character to the landscape.

The true appeal lies in the property's flexibility and strategic Lamar-Menchaca location. With zoning that accommodates both commercial and residential uses, this Austin gem offers genuine optionality: live in the charming existing home while renting out additional space, establish a home-based business, or explore the considerable development prospects the spacious lot affords. The property's position in this centrally-located neighborhood, combined with its substantial acreage and thoughtful improvements, makes it equally compelling for the homeowner seeking breathing room within city limits or the investor recognizing the long-term value of prime Central Austin real estate.
