1 bed, 1 bath, 761 sqft on 0.03 acres in Barton Hills. Austin, TX 78704. $270,000. Austin ISD.
Live where Austin comes alive. Tucked into Barton Hills, this charming one-bedroom, one-bath condo puts some of the city’s most iconic outdoor spaces, restaurants, entertainment, and local favorites right at your fingertips. Barton Springs Pool, Zilker Park, the Barton Creek Greenbelt, and the energy of South Lamar are all nearby, creating an ideal home base for enjoying the laid-back, active lifestyle that makes this part of Austin so special.
Located on the ground level, the condo pairs easy everyday living with thoughtful updates and an impressive amount of storage. Vinyl plank flooring has replaced the original carpet, fresh interior paint creates a bright and welcoming backdrop, and the kitchen has been refreshed with stainless steel appliances, solid-surface countertops, and an undermount stainless steel sink. Updated tilework brings a fresh touch to the bathroom as well.
But it’s the clever details that give this home its personality. Three built-in laundry drop compartments make sorting laundry surprisingly satisfying. Simply open the small hatches, drop in whites, colors, or darks, and they collect in the cabinet below with room for a laundry basket. Along with abundant storage throughout the unit, it’s a smart use of space that makes compact living feel remarkably functional.
Whether you’re looking for a full-time Austin home, a low-maintenance lock-and-leave retreat, or an investment property in one of the city’s most recognizable lifestyle locations, this Barton Terrace condo offers an opportunity to spend less time getting to the places you love, and more time enjoying them.

Neighborhood guide and local insights
Barton Hills is South Austin's Greenbelt neighborhood in 78704, where the Gus Fruh trailhead sits on a residential street and Barton Springs Pool is a five-minute bike ride. Median home price $1.49M. Austin ISD schools, 10 minutes to downtown, direct access to the Barton Creek Greenbelt and Zilker Park. The housing stock is mostly 1950s-70s ranch homes on generous lots (8,000-12,000 sq ft) with mature live oak and pecan canopy. The terrain is hilly and the streets wind without sidewalks — everyone walks in the road and waves. Some original homes have been updated; others are teardown candidates for new builds. Active listings typically number 5-10 at any given time. South Lamar corridor runs along the eastern edge — Uchi, Odd Duck, Loro, Matt's El Rancho, and the Alamo Drafthouse at Lamar Union are all within a mile. Zilker Park (351 acres) is the front yard. The Barton Hills Neighborhood Association actively protects the environmental features that make this location work — the springs, the Greenbelt, and the creek. What defines Barton Hills: trail access from your front door, spring-fed swimming, James Beard Award-winning food a mile away, and a 10-minute downtown commute. The tradeoff is hilly terrain, no HOA-maintained common areas, and older housing stock that may need significant updating.
