About This Home
MOTIVATED SELLER – Will Consider All Offers! Welcome to Greenwood Towers, where convenience meets modern living in this beautifully remodeled 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom residence—a rare find in the building. One of only a handful of units offering two full bathrooms and an in-unit washer/dryer, this home is designed for comfortable everyday living and an easy lock-and-leave lifestyle. While the HOA dues are higher than some communities, they provide exceptional value by covering ALL utilities—including electricity, water, gas, sewer, and trash—as well as exterior and common area maintenance. Even better, these costs are fixed year-round, meaning you won't have to worry about fluctuating utility bills during Austin's hot summers or colder months. With utilities and maintenance bundled into one predictable monthly payment, budgeting and ownership become simple and stress-free. Fully renovated in 2022, the home features a thoughtful top-to-bottom transformation, including a new HVAC system, updated plumbing and electrical, luxury vinyl flooring, and fresh paint throughout. The stylish kitchen showcases custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, a glass tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, a countertop dishwasher, and an all-in-one washer/dryer installed in 2025—another rare feature for Greenwood Towers. Both bathrooms continue the cohesive design with custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, updated fixtures, and beautifully resurfaced tubs and surrounds. The unit also includes one assigned garage parking space. Located just one block from The University of Texas at Austin and approximately five blocks from the Texas Capitol, this home places you in one of Austin's most walkable and connected neighborhoods. Walk or bike to Dell Medical School, museums, restaurants, shopping, and downtown, all while enjoying the city's newly enhanced pedestrian-friendly spaces.

Downtown Austin runs from the Colorado River north to the Capitol, bounded by I-35 to the east and Lamar to the west. It is the densest residential market in Central Texas with high-rise condos, historic lofts, and luxury towers concentrated in distinct sub-districts.
The Seaholm District anchors the west end with the Seaholm Residences and the new Google tower reshaping the skyline. Rainey Street sits along the lake's north shore - what was a street of bungalow bars is now flanked by 40-story residential towers including 70 Rainey and The Lakeshore. The Warehouse District between 3rd and 6th Streets draws buyers who want walkable nightlife and restaurant access. Congress Avenue bisects downtown and remains the civic spine connecting the Capitol to the lake.
The Austonian (56 floors), The Independent (58 floors), and 360 Condominiums are the marquee towers. Newer projects like Sixth & Guadalupe and The Republic continue adding inventory. Price points range from $400K studio condos to $5M+ penthouses with lake and Hill Country views.
Walk Score averages 95+. The MetroRail Red Line stops at downtown station. Major employers including the State of Texas, UT Austin, and a growing tech presence (Google, Meta, Apple satellite offices) generate consistent housing demand. Nightlife, dining, live music, and Lady Bird Lake hike-and-bike trail are all within walking distance.
Buyers here are typically professionals, empty nesters downsizing from suburban estates, investors, and out-of-state relocations drawn to Austin's urban core. HOA fees range from $400/month in older buildings to $2,000+ in full-service towers. Most buildings include concierge, pool, fitness center, and secure parking.
