Property Overview

This rare 1.1-acre offering on Stratford Drive in prestigious Tarrytown presents a once-in-a-generation development opportunity in one of Austin's most sought-after neighborhoods. The flat, highly usable land sits just minutes from downtown and Lake Austin, providing an exceptional blank canvas for envisioning a custom estate or significant expansion. Whether refining the existing four-bedroom residence, rebuilding on the expansive lot, or executing a complete architectural vision, the development potential here transcends typical urban properties in this central location.

The current 2,448 square foot home remains solid and livable, featuring hardwood and tile flooring, a spacious primary suite on the main level, and a functional kitchen. This structure can serve as either a comfortable residence or interim rental while plans take shape. The real distinction lies in the land itself—over an acre of level ground is extraordinarily rare this close to Zilker Park and the cultural epicenter of Austin, TX. Tree-lined streets, top-rated schools, and lake access define the Tarrytown neighborhood, and this property's positioning offers direct proximity to all of it.

Vox Residential Insight

The price per square foot reflects the land value and redevelopment potential rather than the existing structure, which is exactly what seasoned Tarrytown buyers understand. For clients seeking to build their signature home in Austin's most established neighborhood, this Stratford Drive lot represents the type of opportunity that surfaces only occasionally in this market.

Agent Description

Rarely do you find over an acre of perfectly flat, usable land this close to the heartbeat of Austin. Tucked away at 2905 Stratford Lane, this property represents a premier "blank canvas" opportunity in one of the city’s most coveted pockets. Whether you’re looking to take the existing 2,448 sq ft structure and embark on a high-end remodel, expand the footprint to create a sprawling estate, or start fresh with a ground-up custom masterpiece, the potential here is limited only by your imagination. The current home is a solid, well-maintained residence featuring four bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a mix of classic hardwood and tile flooring. With a large kitchen and a spacious main-floor primary suite, it’s entirely livable or rentable while you finalize your architectural plans. However, the true star of the show is the 1.1-acre lot itself. It is exceptionally rare to find this much level acreage just minutes from the iconic Zilker Park and the cool waters of Barton Springs. You’re a stone's throw from the vibrant energy of South Congress, yet tucked away in a setting that offers the kind of privacy and space usually reserved for the outskirts of town. This is more than just a home; it’s a generational opportunity to secure a massive piece of Austin’s landscape and build the lifestyle you’ve always envisioned.
