Property Overview

This corner residence at The Modern captures the essence of sophisticated downtown living with expansive floor-to-ceiling windows framing panoramic views of the Austin skyline and Lady Bird Lake. Unit 2408 offers 1,174 square feet of thoughtfully designed space with two bedrooms, two bathrooms, and the rare advantage of an end-unit position that delivers natural northwest light and a private covered balcony. The open kitchen and living areas flow seamlessly, anchored by quartzite countertops, full-height backsplash, and premium Wolf and Bosch appliances that elevate everyday functionality.

The layout balances generous public space with genuine privacy, a consideration often lost in high-rise design. Wide-plank wood flooring unifies the main living areas while the primary suite delivers spa-like refinement with a spacious walk-in shower and floating illuminated mirrors. Located in the heart of downtown Austin's walkable urban core, this 2024-built property sits steps from 6th Street's entertainment corridor, Congress Avenue's dining scene, and direct access to the vibrant neighborhoods that define modern Austin living.

Vox Real Estate Insight

This property commands a 47% premium over the downtown median price per square foot, a reflection of its recent construction quality and the scarcity of true corner units in The Modern Austin Residences. From Vox Real Estate's perspective, the northwest-facing orientation and panoramic views represent the kind of differentiator that appeals to buyers seeking distinction beyond square footage alone.

Agent Description

A refined corner residence at The Modern offers a quieter, more private perspective on downtown living with northwest exposures, expansive floor-to-ceiling glass and open views across the Austin skyline. With 1,174 square feet, two bedrooms and two full baths, the layout feels considered rather than compressed, balancing generous living space with separation between the private areas of the home. The open kitchen and living space are framed by natural light and extend to a covered private balcony, creating an easy connection to the city without sacrificing a sense of retreat. The kitchen is finished with light quartzite surfaces, full-height backsplash, Italkraft cabinetry and a streamlined suite of Wolf and Bosch appliances. Wide-plank wood flooring continues through the main living areas, while the primary suite features a spacious walk-in shower, floating illuminated mirrors and clean, understated finishes. Set within The Modern Austin Residences, one of the newest additions to the downtown skyline, residents have access to more than 19,000 square feet of thoughtfully designed amenities across three levels, including a 25-meter pool and spa, fitness center and yoga studio, indoor and outdoor lounges, business and conference spaces, dog park and wash station, sky lounge with catering kitchen, and 24-hour concierge service. Just moments from Lady Bird Lake and the hike-and-bike trail, The Modern places downtown, the Rainey Street District and some of Austin’s best dining within immediate reach, while Residence 2408 offers something increasingly valuable in the center of the city: a polished home with views, privacy and enough space to truly live in.
