Fantastic opportunity in 78704! This unit has been updated and well-maintained by the owner. Quartz countertops in the kitchen, fresh carpet in upstairs bedrooms, and both bathrooms have been updated, including a spa-like walk-in tiled shower upstairs that feels like a daily retreat. Condo IS warrantable so it offers excellent financing options (as low as 3% down for first-time buyers and 5% for repeat buyers on a primary residence). The HOA truly simplifies life, covering exterior pest control, sewer, trash, roof, exterior maintenance, patio gate, exterior insurance, and the motion-sensor light above the back carport. You'll enjoy the ease of two assigned covered parking spaces and a private back patio, perfect for morning coffee, grilling, or unwinding at the end of a long day! The community is tight-knit and primarily owner-occupied, creating a welcoming, neighborly atmosphere that truly feels like home. Major systems are already taken care of with an HVAC replacement in 2020 and a water heater replaced in 2017 which makes this unit truly move-in ready. The location is unbeatable! Walk to South 1st and all things along historic South Congress! Walk over and grab coffee at Summer Moon or fantastic Cosmic Coffee + Beer Garden for tacos and cocktails, or head out for a quick 10-minute drive to Downtown Austin or Lady Bird Lake for paddle boarding or walking the trails. St. Edward's University is within walking distance here and H-E-B on South Congress makes grocery runs a breeze. Easy living. Prime location. Classic 78704 lifestyle.
