This home sits on the corner lot and is a 2-minute walk from the community pond. Previously a rental — leased at $2,250/month — making it an equally strong fit for homeowners and investors looking for immediate cash flow potential. Please note that the home is now vacant and the pictures were taken when it was occupied by the last tenant. The main living area has high ceilings and wood-tile flooring. The kitchen is complete with granite countertops, a center island, stainless steel appliances, and ample cabinet storage. All appliances — including the refrigerator, washer, and dryer — convey with the property, making this a true move-in-ready (or rent-ready) opportunity. Thoughtful upgrades set this home apart: a sound barrier between adjoining units for added privacy, and generator-ready wiring already in place for peace of mind. Upstairs, the primary suite includes a private balcony, two spacious closets, and an ensuite bathroom with dual vanities and a walk-in shower. The fenced backyard offers a low-maintenance outdoor escape, and the detached two-car garage delivers extra storage with convenient access just steps from the back door. Location is a major highlight—situated near some of Austin ISD’s top-rated schools, Onion Creek Park (one of the city’s largest metro parks), and just 8 miles from downtown Austin. McKinney Falls State Park is also nearby, offering hiking, biking, and camping. Award-Winning Community! Goodnight Ranch spans 700+ acres with parks, trails, pools, ponds, and green space throughout — recognized by the Austin Business Journal and Austin Stays Weird as one of Austin's top master-planned communities. Whether you're searching for your next home or your next income property, this one checks every box.
