This highly desirable 3-bedroom, 3 FULL bath condo is perfectly situated in the sought-after Brentwood neighborhood of Austin, offering a rare combination of comfort, walkable convenience, and low-maintenance living. With 1,496 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space, the home features a smart layout that balances open main living areas + a flexible bedroom (perfect for a home office!) downstairs with 2 private upstairs bedrooms set back from the street, ensuring both functionality and privacy. A recent roof installed just two years ago, along with added attic insulation, provides peace of mind and energy efficiency for years to come. Plus, you will love having TWO dedicated parking spots (one covered carport and one additional uncovered parking spot) so that you never have to worry about street parking.

The main living spaces are bright and inviting, with an open-concept design that flows effortlessly from the living room to the dining area and kitchen, ideal for entertaining or daily life. Large windows and classic french doors allow sunlight to fill the home, and the versatile layout gives homeowners the flexibility to arrange spaces according to their needs. Outside, a private backyard offers a quiet retreat for relaxation or gatherings, while the HOA covers exterior maintenance and lawn care for stress-free living. A true lock-and-leave style condo, but without sacrificing private a yard!

Brentwood’s central location offers convenient access to neighborhood favorites like Hat Creek, Monkey Nest Coffee, The Peached Tortilla, East Side Pies, Phil’s Icehouse, and Amy’s Ice Creams, all while maintaining the welcoming and diverse community feel the area is known for. Thoughtful design, a functional layout, and low-maintenance features make this home a great fit for first-time buyers, families, or anyone looking for a move-in-ready property in one of Austin’s most desirable neighborhoods.

Brentwood is one of Austin's original mid-century neighborhoods - built mostly between 1948 and 1955 when the city was expanding north of campus. The bones are good: 1,200-1,800 sqft brick and stone ranch homes on 7,500-10,000 sqft lots, mature pecan and oak trees, and a street grid that connects to everywhere without a single cul-de-sac.

The 78757 zip puts you 10 minutes from downtown via Lamar, 8 minutes from the Domain, and walking distance to Burnet Road - which has become one of Austin's best food corridors. Foreign & Domestic, Lala's Little Nugget, Top Notch Hamburgers, Tacodeli, and Soup Peddler are all within a mile. The Crown & Anchor on Burnet still serves the same burgers it did in 1980.

Original ranch homes start around $700K. Renovated and expanded properties run $1.1M-$1.6M. Tear-down and rebuild has accelerated over the past five years - new construction in the $1.8M-$2.5M range now mixes with the originals. The Brentwood Park area near Justin Lane holds value especially well.

Schools are Austin ISD: Brentwood Elementary, Lamar Middle, and McCallum High School - which feeds the Fine Arts Academy. Brentwood Park itself has tennis courts, a swimming pool, and the historic Brentwood Park Pool that families have used since the 1950s.

What makes Brentwood different from the bigger-name North Austin neighborhoods: it's still mostly its original housing stock. You can buy a real 1950s house with the post-war floor plan intact, then decide what to do with it. The neighborhood association is active, the streets are quiet, and the trees are tall enough to actually shade the sidewalks.

Best for buyers who want a true urban neighborhood with mid-century character, walkable food and coffee, and the McCallum Fine Arts Academy zoning.
