About this home
Create something extraordinary in the heart of East Austin. Located in the sought-after Holly neighborhood, this flat, cleared, buildable lot offers a rare opportunity for a custom home, new construction project or investment property in one of Austin’s most vibrant urban communities. Surveys are available, and potential downtown Austin views may be enjoyed from a future second or third story—see photos. Imagine mornings fueled by coffee at Flat Track, afternoons along the Lady Bird Lake Hike-and-Bike Trail and evenings exploring the acclaimed restaurants, cocktail bars and creative spaces that define the East Side. Whole Foods Market, Chalmers, Mr. Natural, JuiceLand, Heywood Hotel, Casa Bianca and Suerte are all nearby, while Downtown Austin, the Rainey Street District and Waller Creek Greenbelt are easily accessible. Set on a quieter stretch of the street, the property offers a welcome sense of separation without giving up the energy and convenience of central Austin living. Whether you envision a modern architectural statement, a warm contemporary retreat or your quintessential Austin home, this vacant residential lot provides a compelling canvas in an established, highly desirable location. Opportunities to purchase a cleared lot this close to downtown are increasingly rare. Bring your architect, builder and vision—and create a home that puts the best of East Austin just beyond your doorstep. Buyer to independently verify zoning, development requirements, utilities, building plans and view potential with the City of Austin and appropriate professionals.
