Property Overview

This charming mid-century residence at 7711 Watson St in Crestview offers rare privacy and separation in the heart of Central Austin. Originally a duplex, the property was legally divided into two independently owned detached homes, making this front unit a standalone single-family residence with no shared walls. Freshly updated with new light fixtures, stainless steel appliances, and new interior and exterior paint, the home maximizes its 768 square feet with an open floor plan and main-level primary bedroom perfect for single professionals or young couples.

The private fenced backyard provides a secluded retreat beneath mature shade trees, while recent plumbing upgrades including new cast iron sewer lines ensure long-term reliability. Just steps from Crestview Station and MetroRail access, this Watson Street property positions residents near Little Deli & Pizzeria and the neighborhood's active community. At $456 per square foot, the pricing aligns perfectly with area medians, making this updated home an intelligent entry point into one of Austin TX's most walkable, established neighborhoods. The opportunity to own neighboring Unit B separately adds unique investment potential for those seeking portfolio expansion.
