1812 West Ave Unit #307, Austin, TX 78701

Priced well below market rate, this beautiful fully-furnished, move-in ready, residence located in the highly desirable historic area of Judges Hill in Downtown Austin is an opportunity you don’t want to miss. Within walking distance to the University of Texas this residence is secured within a gated, controlled access building at the corner of MLK & West Avenue. This fabulous condo is a delightful retreat; the calm and quiet atmosphere of the building, along with lots of natural light and an open floor plan, make it feel simultaneously spacious yet cozy. The two bedrooms are ideally situated for privacy, sitting at opposite ends of the unit. The convenient flex space can be used for additional sleeping, or as a home office, meditation space, or a reading room. The warm tones of the slate floors and granite counters strike a rustic note, and play beautifully with the more modern stainless steel appliances and light fixtures. This common area features a delightful courtyard behind secure access and the unit is provided two parking spaces behind a gated garage. Stackable washer & dryer, refrigerator and all furniture convey.

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.
