RARE AFFORDABILITY ON SOUTH CONGRESS | CORNER UNIT | LAWSUIT RESOLVED, HOA FEES NORMALIZING SOON This bright and airy 2-bedroom, 2-bath corner condo offers a rare opportunity to own on iconic South Congress at a price well below market value. The reason? A temporary HOA assessment tied to a now-resolved developer lawsuit. The case has already been decided in the HOA's favor - final payments from the developer are pending, and HOA dues are projected to return to normal levels by spring. Owners may even be reimbursed for the overage they've paid during repairs. For primary residents who've been priced out of South Austin, this is your chance to get in before the values and fees in the building return to normal. Don't believe us? Check out other 2 bedroom units in buildings nearby. Inside, you'll find a spacious, open-concept layout filled with natural light, modern finishes, and thoughtful details throughout. The kitchen and living space flow seamlessly for entertaining or relaxed everyday living. Building amenities include a fitness center, yoga/party room, and a beautiful courtyard with gas grills and a fireplace - perfect for gathering with friends or neighbors. The condo comes with two conveniently located parking spaces right at the garage entry, and the elevator is just steps from your front door. Washer, dryer, and refrigerator convey, and the seller is offering a $5,000 lender credit toward buyer closing costs. Reach out for any additional details.
