A classic 1940's Austin bungalow, thoughtfully reimagined for modern living. 5717 Avenue F blends the warmth and character of its original architecture with a remarkable 2015 renovation designed by Murray Legge Architecture and featured in Dwell magazine. The renovation transformed the heart of the home into an open, light-filled kitchen, dining and living space while preserving the intimate scale and character that make Central Austin bungalows so appealing. Exposed Douglas fir, clerestory windows, custom built-ins and expansive glass doors add warmth and architectural interest while drawing natural light deep into the home. The kitchen is anchored by rich soapstone countertops and a generous island, creating a natural gathering place at the center of the home. The thoughtfully designed 3-bedroom, 2-bath floor plan makes exceptional use of its space. The connection to the outdoors is equally special.

West Campus opportunity with the renovation already done. This 2-bedroom, 1-bath condo at 2408 Longview St #109 sits inside a gated community just blocks from the University of Texas campus, in one of Austin's most consistently in-demand rental and resale corridors. The current owner has put roughly $40,000 into recent updates, anchored by a full kitchen remodel and refreshed bathroom finishes, giving the next owner updated interiors without the cost or timeline of doing the work themselves. Inside, the layout is clean and functional, with the living and dining areas flowing together for an easy day-to-day footprint. The remodeled kitchen and updated bathroom give the unit a fresher, more contemporary feel than much of the surrounding inventory. Outside, residents have access to a shaded courtyard area, a nice everyday retreat for morning coffee or unwinding after class or work, along with the added privacy of gated grounds. Two designated parking spaces come with the unit, a real convenience this close to campus where parking is often the biggest constraint. Tenants are currently in place, which makes this a turnkey hold for an investor looking for immediate rental income, or a strong option for a future owner-occupant who wants to plan a purchase around the existing lease. Location is the core value here: walking distance to UT, with nearby access to the restaurants, shops, and everyday conveniences that keep West Campus consistently in demand for both renters and buyers. Whether the plan is to hold as a long-term rental, use it as an income property near campus, or transition to owner-occupant once the lease allows, this unit combines updated finishes, secured parking, and a location that's difficult to replicate elsewhere in Austin.

A protected cove in Edwards Mountain, Hill Country and skyline views to the north, east and south, and a Muskin-built traditional that has been cared for from day one: this is the kind of house to hold onto for a long time. The cove is the first thing you notice. A level front yard and a long driveway are rare in the hills and give you room to spread out, and the neighbors on this quiet cul-de-sac look out for one another. The .308-acre lot sits among mature live oaks with morning light in front and afternoon shade in back, and the backyard can go either way: cleared and leveled for more lawn and play space, or kept as it is for privacy, shade and low upkeep. Inside, a two-story entry sets the scale and high ceilings and natural light carry through. Solid hardwood floors were just refinished, and the finishes are the kind that hold up: wool carpet upstairs, cork floors in the dining room, a custom built-in buffet with wine storage, crown molding, plantation shutters and upgraded lighting throughout. The kitchen is anchored by a commercial-grade Wolf gas range and opens to the living areas and the covered porches beyond. The main level flexes. A dedicated office with pocket doors, plus a second space that works as a playroom, music room, library, second living area or a lounge for entertaining. All bedrooms are upstairs. The oversized primary suite has a sitting area, a huge walk-in closet, a bath with an oversized tub facing the hills, and its own private deck with north, east and south views over the hills and the Austin skyline. A recently replaced composite deck and covered porches on both levels handle grilling, dining and quiet evenings. Xeriscaped gardens front and back keep the yard low maintenance. An oversized two-car garage, a laundry room with sink and cabinetry, a main-level powder bath and storage everywhere. Minutes to MoPac, Loop 360, H-E-B, The Domain, The Arboretum and downtown, on a street where homes rarely change hands.

Strong architectural clarity defines the interiors at 5408 Montview St, where crisp lines, balanced proportions, and a composed two-story layout give the home a distinctly polished presence.

Four bedrooms and four full bathrooms allow residents and guests to settle in comfortably, while the powder bathroom offers added convenience during social occasions. The arrangement is generous yet disciplined, maximizing usability without sacrificing design impact. Outdoors, the pool extends the experience into a private setting for swimming, dining, or unwinding beneath the Austin sky. Now offered for sale, this new listing unites striking interior style, substantial space, and poolside living in one compelling address.

Created by joining three separate residences into one, this 14th-floor unit at Cambridge Tower has a footprint no standard condo plan could reproduce. From one end to the other, views are part of the architecture. Floor to ceiling windows and multiple balconies look across the Capitol, downtown, UT and miles of horizon, giving each room its own outlook and turning sunset into a nightly event. Inside, the aesthetic is tailored and traditional, set against the building’s unmistakable midcentury bones. Hardwood and stone floors, layered crown molding, coffered and tray ceilings, paneled walls, extensive built-ins give the home a collected feel. Instead of forcing the entire residence into one oversized open room, the floor plan moves through multiple living and dining areas, creating distinct places to host, read, watch the city or settle in privately. A dedicated office keeps work separate, while the gallery-like passages connecting the rooms provide even more space for art and display. The former muti-unit footprint also solves one of high-rise living’s usual weak spots: storage. Cabinetry, bookcases, and display shelving are worked into the home at nearly every turn. The long kitchen takes that practicality even further with extensive prep space and enough cabinetry to make downsizing optional. Beyond the residence, Cambridge Tower places UT, the Capitol Complex, Dell Seton Medical Center, the Moody Center, Bass Concert Hall, museums, parks and downtown within easy reach. The HOA covers utilities, high-speed internet and cable, while residents enjoy 24-hour security and concierge service, an attended parking garage, a heated pool and spa, fitness center, meeting space and rooftop terrace. Adjacent Unit F is also available for separate purchase, offering the unusual opportunity to own an additional residence next door. Altogether, this is a property shaped by three original addresses, a landmark building and views that never let you forget where you are.

Rare opportunity on a private 8,500+ sq ft corner lot in the heart of East Austin. Two houses, endless flexibility. The primary house is 1,496 sq ft, a 2-story built in 2011 with the soul of something much older: cedar shake siding, tall ceilings, big windows, and a fireplace wrapped in terracotta tile. Concrete floors run through the downstairs. An open kitchen with Carrara marble counters, custom cabinetry, and a large eat-in island. Perfectly proportioned dining space, powder room, pantry, and dedicated laundry on the ground floor. Upstairs, the owner's suite gets gorgeous natural light plus a private bath and walk-in closet, alongside two guest bedrooms sharing a hall bath. The attic is massive, with potential to finish out (buyer to confirm feasibility). Next door, an original 1930s white bungalow with a front porch built for sitting. Currently one bed, one bath at 736 sq ft, easily set up to add a kitchen or kitchenette. Current owners use it as a TV lounge, guest suite, and office. Outside: fully fenced yard, expansive decking, low-maintenance lush gardens and ornamental trees, automatic irrigation, a cedar soaking tub, and a custom chicken coop, all tucked into a lot that feels private despite being minutes from East Austin's best spots (steps from Veracruz tacos and Desnudo Coffee), Springdale General, downtown, and UT. Recent August 2026 updates include all new HVAC and ducting, new water heater, interior paint, new roof, and refinished concrete floors. Two homes. One lot. Incredible East Austin location. A rare setup that doesn't come around often.
