162 Cistern Way, Austin, TX 78737

Come see this farmhouse inspired 6 bedroom 4.5 bath with mother in law suite and master down! Beautiful old oaks and creekside trails wind through this subdivision in Parten Ranch just 20 minutes south of downtown Austin. Owners put in over $100k+ in options including some you can't see - extra insulation in the extended garage to keep it cool in the summer and warm in the winter, running electrical lines to the oversized backyard for a pool, and natural gas hookups for a back porch kitchen grill. No need for well or septic here, which offers a step up from neighboring, older subdivisions and the fixed price means less of an unknown with new builder costs and upgrades. Brand new, modern Cypress Springs Elementary 5 minutes away and on the bus line. New HEB opened July 5th on Nutty Brown Rd only 8 minutes from the subdivision. Amazing HOA pool and playground complex within a 2 minute walk of the house. Tight knit neighbors and great community - greenbelt behind the house between 1826 and Parten means no neighbors to the back of you and plenty of privacy for pool parties or watching TV from the patio. Owners favorite things about the house: The huge live oak in the back that you see from the enormous, light-filled windows the minute you enter the home (rare in Austin), roasting marshmallows in the back fireplace in the winter, watching the amazing sunsets over the hills across the street every summer, nature walks to the creek, raising monarchs in the back (the yard is a certified monarch waystation habitat and many of them come back year to year) and friendly neighbors. This was all set to be their forever home but the needs of extended family required an unplanned change. It's one that's built with longevity in mind!
