About this home
Charming South Austin cottage tucked beneath a canopy of mature trees in Buckingham Estates. This 2-bedroom, 1-bath home packs an incredible amount of personality into its thoughtfully laid-out 892 square feet, with vaulted ceilings, a stone fireplace, warm wood accents, and an easy flow between the living, dining, and kitchen spaces. The kitchen features granite countertops, stainless appliances, and a cozy dining nook filled with natural light. Both bedrooms feel spacious, including a vaulted primary, while the second bedroom works beautifully as a nursery, office, or guest room. For buyers who want something easy to maintain without giving up the things that make a house feel like home, this property offers a rare combination of a manageable footprint, attached garage, private yard, and plenty of room to host. The covered front porch adds to the curb appeal, while the large fenced backyard and patio create an easy extension of the living space for dinners outside, weekend grilling, or time with friends. All of this in a well-established South Austin neighborhood with quick access to Southpark Meadows, Slaughter Lane, Menchaca favorites, parks, coffee shops, and everyday essentials.
