Property Overview

This one-bedroom condo at 1818 Lakeshore Boulevard claims one of Austin's rarest commodities: direct waterfront access on Lady Bird Lake. Unit 25 at The Waterfront offers modern kitchen and bathroom upgrades paired with ground-level views of the lake and Downtown skyline, creating an immediate sense of escape without leaving the city. The 736-square-foot residence opens onto the community's private grounds, where residents enjoy a floating dock for kayaking, direct access to the Lady Bird Lake Hike & Bike Trail, and a resort-style pool—amenities that transform daily life into recreation.

Located in East Austin's thriving cultural district, this waterfront gem sits less than two miles from the restaurants, breweries, and arts venues that define the neighborhood's identity. The Waterfront's gated community of just 48 units preserves an intimate feel while the short-term rental designation adds flexibility for owners. At $542 per square foot, the price reflects the waterfront location and amenities rarely available in this market. Whether launching a kayak at sunrise or biking to nearby Rainey Street, residents find themselves positioned at the intersection of Austin's natural and urban attractions.
