About This Property
Keep Austin Wild -- in the best way possible. This South Austin gem blends the convenience of city living with the serenity of nature. Located on 1/3 acre of lush native vegetation, the home is just minutes from downtown and a stone's throw away from Wheatsville Co-op, Radio Coffee, and a private entrance to the Barton Creek Greenbelt. At the heart of the property is a magnificent garden, thoughtfully designed as a peaceful retreat. Certified as a Wildlife Habitat and once featured on Austin PBS, it's a space that invites you to reconnect with the earth, your senses, and your primal roots. Birds sing, a gentle fountain flows, and every corner of the garden encourages you to breathe deeper and slow down. The landscape includes 20+ fruit-bearing trees--varieties of apple, pear, peach, plum, persimmon, fig, elderberry, mulberry, and pomegranate--adding beauty, biodiversity, and seasonal abundance to your backyard sanctuary. Inside, the home offers two distinct living areas filled with natural light--ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. Bright, airy bedrooms and modern finishes throughout create a fresh, welcoming atmosphere. Step onto the covered patio, where a wood-paneled ceiling and fan provide the perfect setting for morning coffee, outdoor meals, or quiet evenings under the trees. Just beyond, a detached studio offers endless possibilities--perfect for a home office, art space, or private guest retreat. The property also includes a paid-off solar panel system, delivering long-term energy efficiency and qualifying for a special solar exemption through the Travis County Appraisal District--lowering your property taxes while supporting a sustainable lifestyle. If you value biodiversity, sustainability, and a home that reflects those ideals, you'll feel the difference here.
