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.
