About this House

STEEL-FRAME MODERN + 2-BED GUEST HOUSE | ST. ELMO DISTRICT | WALLS OF GLASS | 3 MILES TO DOWNTOWN | One property, two fully independent homes in the heart of South Austin's St. Elmo district. The main residence is a steel-framed modern unlike anything else in 78704, with an inverted layout that puts everyday living where the light is: the second story is wrapped in floor-to-ceiling glass, so the open living, dining, and kitchen level floats in the tree canopy with sunlight pouring across hardwood floors, a marble mosaic accent wall, and a gas cooktop kitchen. Downstairs, a glass slider opens to a covered patio sheltered beneath the cantilever, built for year-round entertaining beside the shaded lawn. Out back, the separate 2-bedroom guest house lives like its own address with a full kitchen, gas range, and a private deck built around a mature shade tree, ideal for extended family, a work-from-home setup with real separation, or income potential (buyer to verify permitted use). The location delivers on the lifestyle the architecture promises: steps to Cosmic Coffee and Beer Garden, minutes to the breweries and distilleries of The Yard, duckpin bowling at Pins Mechanical, and South Congress dining, with downtown Austin just 3 miles up the road.
We estimate this home will sell faster than 94% nearby.

    "Cosmic Coffee is a 5 minute walk for happy hour, by way of the pond. We also walk to Crux to workout and co-work. The neighbors are friendly and the oak trees offer wonderful shade in the summer. Our little neighborhood also features many little groves of orange trees. Extra wide bike lanes lead to the grocery store and all the fun shops and eateries on South Congress/South 1st. "
