Artfully reimagined 1950s ranchette turned high-performing dual-unit property in the heart of Austin’s urban core. Renovated and expanded by a husband-and-wife architect/design team, this Highland offering combines timeless design with strong, documented cash flow and multiple leasing strategies. The detached casita is an established, highly active Airbnb with 300+ five-star reviews and an average monthly income of approximately $2,500, offering immediate, turnkey short-term rental revenue. The front residence presents additional upside, with projected Airbnb income of ~$4,200/month or long-term rental potential of ~$3,800/month, allowing investors to pursue STR, LTR, or hybrid strategies. The light-filled main home offers 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, a ground-floor primary suite, open kitchen/living/dining, two guest bedrooms plus a flex space upstairs. Design-forward kitchen includes stainless steel appliances, Caesarstone countertops, marble tile backsplash, eat-in island, and walk-in pantry. Vaulted living room with exposed beams and Velux skylights opens seamlessly to private outdoor living. Solid white oak floors throughout the main level; baths feature Heath Ceramics tile and Kohler fixtures. The detached casita, built in 2020, functions equally well as a guest suite, STR, or private office. Most furnishings are negotiable and may convey. A rare opportunity to acquire a design-driven Central Austin compound with proven income, flexible use, and strong long-term upside.
