While we certainly have plenty of love for the north side of town, there’s just something special about living in South Austin. Spacious, contemporary and close to downtown, this three bedroom home will make living in South Austin even more interesting. It has a pretty modern design on the outside (notice there’s no lawn in the front yard), while the interior has a contemporary feel while still having a classical use of space. If there was ever a house that could stand as a metaphor for Austin itself, it would be this one.

There’s no virtual tour for this property but the folks at Spyglass Realty would be more than happy to take you on a personal tour.

Beds/baths: 4/3.5
Size: 4,103 sq. ft.

Moving away from homes that are a little less… rectangular, we present this beautifully landscaped property on Roy Butler Dr. While built in 2002, this four bedroom home has been updated with brand new appliances and fixtures. The open front yard pavilion is elegant and inviting and the paradise backyard is the perfect area to have friends over for a cookout. Connected to a golf course, this home is also very close to community swimming pools, tennis courts and playgrounds, giving the kids plenty to do once you’ve gotten them out of the second floor game room.

Take a tour of this home from the comfort of your own or reach out to Jeff Gifford of Keller Williams and make him show you around.

Just another four example of the kind of gorgeous, interesting real estate that’s available on the Austin housing market. We’ll be back next week with more great listings for you to enjoy and envy.
