About This Property
A rare investment opportunity in the heart of Travis Heights--one of Austin's most sought-after neighborhoods. Just steps from the Lady Bird Lake boardwalk and hike-and-bike trail, this classic 1939 triplex offers a perfect blend of vintage charm, income potential, and unbeatable walkability. The front two-story home features two spacious 2-bedroom, 1-bath apartments--one upstairs and one down--each showcasing original hardwood floors, separate living and dining rooms, full kitchens, and abundant natural light. Tucked behind the main house is a detached garage apartment: a cozy, elevated 1-bedroom unit that feels like a serene treehouse retreat. Set among tree-lined streets and surrounded by multi-million dollar homes, this property is walkable to vibrant South Congress Avenue, where residents enjoy top-rated dining (Home Slice Pizza, Jo's Coffee, Perla's), boutique shopping (Allen's Boots, Parts & Labour), and live music at the iconic Continental Club. Nearby outdoor attractions include Big Stacy Pool, Blunn Creek Greenbelt, and paddleboarding on Lady Bird Lake. Located minutes from downtown and served by Google Fiber and well-rated schools, this triplex offers incredible lifestyle and investment upside in one of Austin's most beloved neighborhoods.
