Additional highlights include an attached one-car garage, an additional covered parking space next to the garage for a car, scooter, or bike, and a dog park conveniently located just down the street. This South Austin gem offers the perfect combination of urban convenience and peaceful charm—everything you’ve been looking for and more.
