Experience the pinnacle of South Austin Living at The Talisman, a gated, hilltop community on high point above the vibrant Barton Spring district. Known for its intimate setting, breathtaking downtown views, and unbeatable walkability, The Talisman offers the rare combination of serenity and centrality-without the hassle of elevators, long hallways, or massive parking garages. Unit #107 is a beautifully updated and meticulously maintained first-floor condo, offering a spacious layout and refined finishes throughout. Renovated in 2020, this residence showcases floor-to-ceiling windows in both the living room and bedroom-inviting natural light, framing skyline views, and creating a refreshing cross-breeze thanks to screened openings. A stylish electric fireplace, warm wood flooring, and modern touches make the living space feel inviting year-round. The generous, modified floor plan includes a large living area, designated dining space, and an oversized bedroom with plenty of room for a secondary sitting area or workspace. Storage is abundant, featuring two kitchen pantries, a walk-in bedroom closet plus a secondary closet, an epoxy-floored 1-car private garage with custom ceiling storage, and a dedicated locked exterior storage room. Step outside and enjoy The Talisman's tranquil community amenities: a sparkling pool with city views, lush landscaping shaded by mature oak trees, secure automatic and pedestrian gates, a dog park, and plenty of unassigned guest parking. From here, you're just a short walk to Zilker Park, Barton Springs Pool, Lady Bird Lake, the hike-and-bike trail, the pedestrian bridge into downtown, and renowned restaurants including Uchi, Juliet, Eberly, El Alma, and Chuy's. Whether watching fireworks from your living room, strolling to coffee and tacos, or enjoying the calm of a gated retreat above the city, Unit #107 offers the perfect blend of convenience, comfort, and quintessential Austin charm.
