Description
Welcome to this classic East Austin bungalow on a coveted corner lot in popular Cherrywood. The main house spans 1,080 square feet with three bedrooms, one updated full bath, and original hardwood floors. A detached 392-square-foot, income-producing guest house offers a full bedroom and bathroom—ideal for steady rental income or guest accommodations. Out back, a large deck and treehouse create a private retreat for entertaining or relaxing under the trees. Both dwellings share a storage shed and laundry area. The location is an Austinite’s dream: stroll to Cherrywood Coffeehouse and the restaurants along Manor Road, or bike to Hyde Park, Mueller’s shops and green spaces, and the University of Texas. Zoned to popular schools, including Maplewood Elementary. Move-in ready as-is, this bungalow also presents opportunities for a thoughtful renovation, an investment purchase, or even a complete rebuild—taking advantage of Austin’s evolving development regulations.
