1703 Madison, Austin, TX 78757

Welcome to 1703 Madison Ave. Another quality build from Mark Roberts of Co-Sci Construction and Jack Harter of JH Architecture. This is one amazing home that you don't want to miss. Incredible layout features the primary bedroom on the main level along with a secondary bedroom and bath, bar area, gourmet kitchen with huge island, mud room, powder room, and one car garage. Upstairs you will find 3 additional bedrooms along with an enormous game room and office area. Two sets of washer/dryer connections, one upstairs and one down, add to the conveniences of this thoughtfully planned, energy efficient home. Step through the sliding glass doors to the expansive rear covered patio overlooking your private pool. Located in the heart of Crestview, one of Austin's best neighborhoods known for its vibrant community and convenient amenities, this home is sure to please even the pickiest of buyers! Seller is willing to offer a 2-1 Buydown which will reduce your interest rate for the first two years. This equates to about 35k in savings on your loan!

Crestview was Austin's post-war boom neighborhood - built in the early 1950s when GIs came home and needed houses fast. The result is one of the most cohesive mid-century neighborhoods in the city: 1,000-1,500 sqft ranch homes on 6,500-8,500 sqft lots, broad streets, and a layout that predates the cul-de-sac era.

The 78757 zip and the MetroRail station are what set Crestview apart from neighboring Brentwood and Allandale. The Crestview MetroRail stop runs to downtown in 12 minutes and to Leander in 30. Combined with the Lamar/Burnet bus corridor and the bike lanes on Justin Lane, you can live in Crestview without driving most days. That's rare for North Austin.

Original ranches start around $675K. Updated homes with kitchens, baths, and HVAC modernized run $950K-$1.3M. New builds and major renovations push $1.6M-$2.2M. The teardown rate has accelerated since 2020 but the neighborhood association has been active in protecting the streetscape.

Burnet Road is the food and shopping spine: Little Deli & Pizzeria, Texas French Bread, Phoebe's Diner, Yard Bar (with the dog park), and the long-standing Top Notch Hamburgers all sit within a mile. Lamar runs north to the Domain and south to downtown.

Schools serve Austin ISD: Brentwood Elementary, Lamar Middle, and McCallum High School with its Fine Arts Academy program. The Brentwood Park pool and tennis courts are shared with neighboring Brentwood. Wooldridge Square sits at the southern edge.

Best for buyers who want walkable urbanism, transit access, McCallum zoning, and an original 1950s house they can renovate or rebuild.
