4008 Briones St, Austin, TX 78723

Welcome to this stunning standalone single-family home in the heart of Mueller. A rarity in the area, this home comes with an attached two-car garage, and extended full-length driveway, that's accessible from the alley. 4008 Briones St is a bright, thoughtfully designed three-bedroom inverted floor plan that effortlessly balances daily living, remote work, and guest stays. The first floor features two bedrooms and a full bath, which can be used as a pair of home offices, or one dedicated home office and a comfortable guest room. This provides a separate, productive environment throughout the day. When evening arrives, head upstairs to your second-floor living space- complete with an open-concept living area, a modern kitchen with an island, a balcony overlooking the shared courtyard, and a serene primary suite. The sellers have cherished this unique layout for its seamless transition between daytime work on the main level and relaxing downtime upstairs. Outside, the home opens to a charming shared courtyard garden that fosters a warm, close-knit community feel among neighbors.

Beyond the front door, the vibrant Mueller neighborhood delivers an exceptional Austin lifestyle rich in amenities and convenience. Residents enjoy easy access to local shopping, dining, a popular weekly farmers market, extensive walking and biking trails, a nearby golf course, and two picturesque lakes. Furthermore, Mueller POA membership unlocks access to 140 acres of lush parks, a community garden, and two refreshing pools. Combining a versatile layout with an unbeatable location, this property offers the ultimate blend of comfort, flexibility, and community living.

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.
