Property Overview

This 1959 classic on Bluebonnet Lane in Zilker offers rare proximity to Barton Springs Pool, Lady Bird Lake, and the Hike & Bike Trail—all within walking distance. Situated on an oversized 8,189-square-foot lot anchored by mature trees and a sprawling screened porch, the home delivers the outdoor living that defines desirable South Austin. Recent updates to the roof and HVAC system meet practical concerns while the original bones and character remain intact.

Inside, wood floors flow through living spaces warmed by two fireplaces and flooded with natural light. The kitchen features granite countertops and maple cabinetry, while the primary suite includes a walk-in closet and full bath. A dedicated office with private backyard access appeals to remote workers, and two distinct living areas provide flexibility. The paver patio and driveway, combined with the two-car garage, round out the functional design of this 2,137-square-foot home.

Walking distance to South Lamar's dining scene, Zilker Park, and all the neighborhood's outdoor recreation makes this address highly sought after. Priced at $1,199,000—seven percent below the neighborhood median—the home offers strong value in one of Austin, TX's most coveted addresses.

Vox Residential Insight

The Vox Residential team sees this as a prime Zilker opportunity where location premium is offset by value pricing and the kind of outdoor-centric lifestyle that defines Austin living. For buyers serious about proximity to Barton Springs and the park, this lot size and walkability combination rarely hits the market.

Agent Description

Walk to Barton Springs, Zilker Park, and all the great restaurants and local spots along Barton Springs Road! Tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac, this lovingly cared-for home sits on a beautiful lot with mature trees, a huge screened-in porch, a paver patio, and a storage shed. It's been exceptionally well maintained and is move-in ready. Inside, you'll find wood floors throughout most of the home, maple kitchen cabinets with granite countertops and stainless appliancees, two fireplaces, two living areas, and tons of natural light from Anderson windows and high-quality sliding doors. Major updates include the HVAC system and roof. The primary suite features a walk-in closet and a full bath. Downstairs, there's a great office with its own private entrance from the backyard—perfect for working from home or meeting clients. A paver driveway leads to the attached two-car garage. This is one of those classic old Austin homes that's been loved for years. Some buyers may want to update or remodel over time, but the more time I spent here, the more I appreciated its character. I think many people will be excited to move right in and enjoy it as it is.
