2400 Rockingham Cir, Austin, TX 78704

Tucked at the top of a quiet cul-de-sac in Barton Hills—one of Austin’s most beloved neighborhoods—this beautifully updated 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers the perfect mix of privacy, charm, and unbeatable location. Just minutes from Umlauf Sculpture Garden, Barton Springs Pool, Zilker Park, and South Lamar hot spots like Odd Duck, Loro, and Alamo Drafthouse, you'll never be far from the heart of the action. Barton Hills Elementary is just a few blocks away, and the Barton Creek Greenbelt trailhead is right around the corner for hiking, biking, and creek dips.

Step inside to a spacious living room with a gorgeous fireplace as the centerpiece—warm and welcoming for gatherings or quiet nights at home. The home also features two dining areas, including a sunny breakfast nook and a formal dining room, plus a bright bonus room perfect for a guest room, office, or creative studio. The fully remodeled kitchen features quartz countertops and stainless appliances, while the spacious primary suite includes its own private entrance and space just outside for a future hot tub.

A woodworking shed over the driveway, fresh landscaping, a chicken coop, and extensive interior and exterior updates—including new flooring, lighting, paint, and concrete steps—make this home move-in ready.

This location gives you the best of both worlds—nature at your doorstep and Austin's culture and cuisine just minutes away, all with low taxes and no HOA.

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.
