709 W St Elmo Rd # 1

Set on a prominent corner lot in the rapidly evolving St. Elmo district, this thoughtfully designed two-story residence blends clean contemporary architecture with the flexibility today’s buyers demand—just minutes from downtown Austin and Austin-Bergstrom Airport. Inside, 10-foot ceilings, expansive windows, and wide-plank wood floors create a light-filled, open atmosphere. Eight-foot solid-core doors and crisp modern finishes speak to a level of craftsmanship rarely found in newer construction at this price point. The kitchen anchors the home, featuring a generous entertaining island, KitchenAid appliances, and abundant prep space—seamlessly connecting to the living and dining areas for effortless everyday living and hosting alike. Upstairs, a spacious loft offers valuable flex space—ideal as a second living area, office, media room, or creative studio. With four bedrooms and a versatile layout, the home easily adapts to remote work, guests, or evolving needs, with potential for multi-generational living or future income flexibility. Beyond its modern design, the home was built with notable structural integrity. During the seller’s purchase inspection, a civil engineer and master inspector noted that the foundation design and execution stood out as among the best he had evaluated in years—a meaningful distinction in Austin. Outdoor living is equally inviting, with a private fenced yard, covered patio for al fresco dining, and a detached storage shed for bikes and gear. Just 200 feet from the planned Bergstrom Spur Trail—an exciting future greenway connecting South Austin to miles of outdoor recreation—the home is perfectly positioned for both lifestyle and long-term value. As a site condominium with no HOA fees or shared expenses, it offers the privacy and independence of a single-family home, with exceptional access to downtown, ABIA, I-35, and Ben White.
