Description

Introducing the Penick Urban Homestead, a rare opportunity to own a piece of Austin history—this 3-bedroom, 2-bath single-family home is set on one of the largest residential lots in the 78741 - over half an acre! While many homes are just an address, this street is named after the legendary Harvey Penick, known for his work at the Riverside Golf Course. The two-story layout includes 2 bedrooms on the main level and a dedicated primary suite occupying the entire second floor, providing a sense of scale and privacy that is nearly impossible to find this close to the city center. On the main floor, a spacious living room centers around the fireplace with large windows that frame the massive backyard like a living painting. Hardwood floors run throughout the home, leading into a remodeled kitchen finished with wood cabinetry and granite countertops. A full-length foyer creates a seamless flow from the front of the house to the back. This home has been rebuilt from the outside in with high-end updates throughout, including major systems, roof and windows. For those needing extra room, a door on the second floor opens to a large walk-in attic that offers massive storage or potential for future finished space. The fully fenced backyard contains over 20 fruit trees, including apple, pear, and peach varieties, alongside a 12 x 28-foot deck and a fire pit area with decomposed granite paths. The location is a major draw, placing you adjacent to the Riverside Golf Course, 2 miles from Downtown Austin and 15 minutes from the airport. Enjoy easy access Secret Beach at Roy G. Guerrero Park or hop on the MetroRapid 800 bus just a block away on Pleasant Valley Road. With the $4 billion River Park development nearby and the planned Grove Station on the Blue Line light rail coming soon, this Penick Place home connects you to the best of Austin’s future growth while remaining tucked away on a quiet, private street.

    "I do no know . People walk their dogs no problem. The dogs are friendly. Totally normal and safe. People also pick up after their dogs"
  • Trulia User
    "There’s parks and trails nearby which is nice for your dog. The River is about 1-2 miles walk down the road as well. "
  • Trulia User
    "A lot of traffic in the typical hours and traffic got worse when they removed a regular lane and added a bus only lane."
  • Haley S.
    "Lived here for 3 years. It’s affordable and as long as you find a spot that isn’t right off of Riverside, the crime and unsightly homeless camps will mostly be avoidable. Wouldn’t recommend for families but 20 somethings can make this area work for sure."
  • Trulia User
    "Very close to downtown and the community h ere is great. its close to work,gym and heb. I love this area. "
  • Alissa D.
    "Flooded with tons of homeless living in tents along Pleasant Valley and Riverside. They have taken over the once decent looking grassy knolls in front of the HEB- think trailer park but only with tents. "
  • Nicole C.
    "Lots of dog parks. Pet friendly neighborhoods. Not much to not like about. Plenty of walking spaces."
  • Samantha C. S.
    "It’s not safe to walk your dog around here. Also the sidewalks aren’t well maintained so your dog could potentially eat or step in something unsafe"
  • Jmuniz1193
    "The homeless population is high in this area, and the roads are poorly maintained. But for the price in the area it’s not bad considering the close attractions."
  • Brandy J.
    "there are many families in our area, lots of parks, hiking trails and entertainment near by. Scooters readily available "
  • Enanaguerrero
    "Its all drama lots of bad things happend crimes all the time maybe i really need to move from this neighborhood "
  • Lonnasbeck
    " I've lived here for 6 years and its been a pretty good experience. Close to grocery stores, music events, restaurants, and my work. So we have been blessed. We also live in the nicest apartment complex in this area. All a testament to Gods faithfulness to us."
  • THIS_IS_TRENT225
    "This place was good the first year was here in August 2010-August 2011 however over the past few months i have noticed it has gone down hill in a very bad way i have had stuff stolen off my balcony (i live on the second floor) and i heard a gunshot in the courtyard last week....LIVE HERE AT YOUR OWN RISK"
