Property Overview

This 1954 ranch home at 2811 Fresco Drive commands the kind of effortless charm that defines Allandale's most desirable addresses. Carefully modernized without losing its character, the four-bedroom residence pairs original architectural bones with thoughtful updates: a two-year-old roof, fresh plumbing infrastructure, new flooring throughout, and completely refreshed kitchen and bathroom spaces. Foundation repairs come with warranty, ensuring the home's structural integrity for years to come. The 2,109 square feet of living space flows naturally across the single-story layout, offering the comfortable proportions Austin homebuyers seek.

The nearly eighth-acre lot provides genuine outdoor space in an increasingly rare configuration, with room to garden, entertain, and even add a storage structure. Set on one of Allandale's tree-lined streets, this property sits within walking distance of beloved neighborhood institutions like Fonda San Miguel and newer arrivals like Tzintzuntzan, making it as much about community continuity as home quality. Wide, pedestrian-friendly streets and the neighborhood's proven staying power distinguish Allandale from transient Austin pockets.

At $1,075,000, this Fresco Drive home positions well within the market for a completely updated 1954 home on this scale in this established neighborhood.
