Updated home on a tree-shaded, large lot in highly desired Brentwood. The home features a wide front porch & metal roof reminiscent of a Hill Country farmhouse.

Two sunny rooms off the kitchen offer plenty of possibilities: home office, playroom, guestroom & more.

Brentwood is a welcoming, family-friendly neighborhood w/ proximity to all things Austin. You'll find impromptu porch gatherings, morning walks to school, sounds of kids playing & front yard concert series. The neighborhood was even depicted in a popular children’s book, Domino’s Dots, which was inspired by Brentwood & created by neighbors who love this community. Take an afternoon stroll to the Crestview Shopping Center & enjoy a slice of pizza from Little Deli & sit in the shade at Violet Crown for a glass of wine. 3 grocery stores are w/in a mile and a half, as are an elementary, middle & high school. In the evenings you’ll find neighbors on the walk & bike path that goes from Koenig to Anderson Lane, or the central park w/ playscapes, tennis courts & community pool. Just 5 miles to the downtown, experience the exciting happenings in the city, even taking the Red Line train for a car-free adventure. This is the perfect home for those who want a close-knit neighborhood while enjoying the city of Austin.
