About this House

1166 Ridgeway Drive – 3 BR, 2 Bath with office and large fenced yard on hilltop backing to greenbelt. Primary home, rental, or redevelopment opportunity in East Austin, TX 78702 Rare opportunity to own an elevated homesite in one of East Austin's most sought-after and rapidly transforming neighborhoods. This hilltop lot backs directly to a City of Austin greenbelt, offering privacy, a mature oak tree canopy, and the potential for downtown skyline views from a future second-story build. The existing home is a well-maintained 1950s bungalow of approximately 1,250 square feet. Recent updates include a new roof, updated HVAC system, and plumbing main line, making the property fully livable as a primary residence or rental. The elevated homesite is the true highlight. Positioned above surrounding properties, the lot may offer second-story views toward downtown, East Austin's urban landscape, and distant airport vistas, while the elevation captures prevailing breezes, a setting that's increasingly rare within Austin's urban core. Large oaks on back property line. Zoned as SF-3-NP, with a lot size of approximately 7,448.76 sq ft per survey/TCAD, larger than the area average, the property offers real flexibility for expansion or new construction. Under the City of Austin's HOME Initiative, qualifying single-family lots in this zoning category can support up to three residential units by right, opening the door for subdivision or a condominium-regime build-out (subject to buyer verification of current zoning and City of Austin approval). Ideally located minutes from downtown Austin, The University of Texas, Mueller, major employers, restaurants, coffee shops, parks, and cultural attractions. Whether you're seeking a future homesite, an income-producing rental, or a ground-up redevelopment, 1166 Ridgeway offers a rare combination of elevation, lot size, HOME-eligible density potential, and East Austin location.

    "There’s not many side walks in the more residential streets. But traffic is typically light in the evening. Many houses have dogs in fenced yards, so there is lots barking when I take my dog for a stroll."

    "When I found my eastside home in 2000, everyone I knew said I was crazy to buy here (east of Chestnut, next to an abandoned airport) & advised against it. Boy, were they wrong. My neighbors are fantastic, my child grew up here playing safely in our yard and up and down the street since he was under two years old. I was a single mom when I moved in... have never had any issues with crime [I've been known to leave my convertible top down for days :) ]. A healthy, short walk to Patterson Park/Pool, restaurants and shops on Manor; the Mueller development (shops, etc) is famously now just across the road. We have the MLK transit stop almost next door to us and Austin just keeps growing... like it or not. But our little neighborhood is just as quaint and cool as ever!! "

    "As an agent specializing in East Austin, I find the area to be so dynamic and diverse. There is so much to do, great places to eat, convenience to downtown, my pick for a great place to call home. Opportunities range from buying a new and modern "green home", to taking on a fixxer upper with a great chance to build equity, to building from scratch on one of the many great view lots available. The secret is out - the East Side is the right side. Let's talk. Scott"
