Stunning 4-Bedroom Home with Office, 3.5 Baths, and a 2nd Living Room That Could Be Converted into a 5th Bedroom This thoughtfully designed two-story residence in the heart of Mueller offers the perfect blend of comfort, flexibility, and modern style. Featuring both the primary suite and laundry room on the main level—a rare and highly sought-after layout—this home is as functional as it is beautiful.

Step into the open-concept living space, where soaring ceilings create an airy and inviting atmosphere. The chef’s kitchen boasts an impressive 8.5-foot island, abundant counter space, and ample cabinet storage. Outfitted with stainless steel GE appliances, it blends style and functionality seamlessly.

The main-level primary bedroom offers a quiet retreat complete with a built-in custom closet. Just down the hall, the main-level laundry room adjoins a spacious storage area, making day-to-day tasks a breeze. An office and powder room round out the versatile and efficient first floor.

Upstairs, you’ll find three additional bedrooms, two full baths, and a generous secondary living area (that could be converted into a fifth bedroom if needed) — offering flexibility for guests, a playroom, or a media space.

Enjoy outdoor living across three distinct spaces: a private backyard with a deck perfect for entertaining, a welcoming front porch ideal for neighborly chats, and an upper balcony offering a peaceful escape.

This home combines modern design with thoughtful functionality in one of Austin’s most vibrant communities. Walk to H-E-B, the farmers market, two community pools, restaurants, parks, and more—Mueller truly has it all.

Mueller is what happens when a city tears down its old airport and rebuilds the neighborhood from scratch with everything it learned. 700 acres of mixed-use design, 140+ acres of parks and green space, and one of the largest LEED-certified communities in Texas. The street grid is walkable, the houses face each other instead of garages, and the Lake Park splash pad is the unofficial summer gathering point.

Housing runs from 1,200 sqft row homes around $550K to 4,000+ sqft single-family homes near $1.4M. Yard homes, garden homes, condos, and townhomes are mixed on the same block by design. Most builds went up between 2007 and 2022, so HVAC, roofs, and energy systems are modern. Expect $380-$450/sqft on resales depending on type and location within the neighborhood.

The 78723 zip is what surprises buyers most. Mueller sits 10 minutes from downtown via Manor Road, 7 minutes from Dell Children's Medical Center, and 15 minutes from the airport. The Thursday Farmers' Market at Mueller Lake Park runs year-round. Aldrich Street has the H-E-B, restaurants, and the Alamo Drafthouse anchor. Branch Park hosts free outdoor movies in summer.

Schools serve Austin ISD: Maplewood Elementary, Lamar Middle, and McCallum High - which has Austin's longest-running Fine Arts Academy. Families also pull from Magellan International School and Austin Achieve Public Schools nearby.

What you get in Mueller that you can't replicate elsewhere in Austin: a master-planned neighborhood with a real urban density model, parks within a 5-minute walk of every door, and a mixed-income housing program that keeps the demographic diverse. What you give up: large lots. Most yards are intentionally small to keep density high and parks plentiful.

Best for buyers who want walkability, sustainable design, and a real neighborhood feel without leaving the urban core.
