Situated on East 55th Street in the heart of Austin's most coveted walkable neighborhood, the four-bedroom residence spans 1,576 square feet and sits on nearly 1.8 acres of mature landscape, featuring towering live oaks, pecan trees, and a magnificent cottonwood that provides natural cooling and character.

The open floor plan centers on a granite kitchen with stainless steel appliances, breakfast bar, and ample storage that flows into a dining area flooded with natural light. Four generously proportioned bedrooms include a primary suite separated from the secondary bedrooms, offering privacy and direct access to the updated deck.
