Room Description

Master Bedroom with Private Bath in Shared East Austin Home

Enjoy the comfort and privacy of a spacious master bedroom with an attached private bathroom in a beautifully maintained shared single-family home, ideally located in one of East Austin's most convenient and vibrant neighborhoods.

The private master suite offers a generous bedroom, an en-suite full bathroom, and plenty of closet space. Shared living areas include a fully equipped kitchen, living and dining spaces, laundry area with washer and dryer, and an expansive backyard designed for relaxing or entertaining.

The home features modern appliances throughout, including a brand-new gas range and oven, a modern microwave, dishwasher, refrigerator, washer, and dryer, all less than two years old. A Ring video doorbell provides additional peace of mind, and the landlord is open to discussing reasonable security enhancements if requested.

One of the highlights of the property is the large, tree-shaded backyard. Mature trees provide a peaceful outdoor setting with a spacious deck and gazebo, making it a great place to unwind after work or enjoy time with friends. A storage shed is also available for bicycles and outdoor equipment.

The location is exceptional. The home is just one block from a popular food truck park, within a half mile of many of East Austin's acclaimed restaurants, coffee shops, and local businesses, and approximately one mile (about a 5 7 minute drive) from Downtown Austin and the Texas Capitol. Major employers, entertainment, nightlife, parks, and public transportation are all easily accessible.

This room is ideal for a working professional, graduate student, traveling professional, or anyone looking for a comfortable home with easy access to downtown while enjoying the space and privacy of a single-family residence.

    "The neighborhood is diverse as far as age goes, so there is a mix of families and a younger generation. But even the younger professional generation is pretty subdued in my neighborhood. It's definitely not a college student area with parties or anything."

    "Though Austin schools have been criticized, the Blackshear Elementary school is in the top 10 in AISD. We have 4th Fridays on 11th Street where restaurants and retailers join with residents to celebrate our neighborhood. Quick jaunt to the airport, too, without the noise - airlines usually fly away from our neighborhood - incoming/outgoing. And there is Metrorail nearby. Truly a changing community with inclusion for old and new."
