Charming South Austin cottage offering vintage character with thoughtfully updated major systems and flexible SF-3 zoning. Originally built in 1950 in Austin’s iconic 78704 neighborhood, this 2-bedroom, 2-bath home was relocated to its current South Austin setting in 1995, where it was placed on engineered piers and expanded with an addition constructed on slab.
The home blends classic Austin charm with substantial behind-the-walls improvements. Plumbing, electrical, drywall and windows were updated as part of the relocation and renovation. The property features no cast-iron wastewater lines and no PEX plumbing, and wastewater is gravity-fed to the City of Austin sewer system—important features for buyers looking at established Austin homes.
With two bedrooms and two full baths, the floor plan offers comfortable everyday living while retaining the character and personality of a true Austin cottage. SF-3 zoning adds another layer of versatility and potential for the property, subject to City of Austin development regulations and approvals. Home has been painted inside and out, bathrooms and kitchens have been updated with new fixtures and countertops.
A unique opportunity to own a piece of old Austin character without many of the infrastructure concerns commonly associated with homes of this era—all in a convenient South Austin location.
