1014 Hillside Oaks Dr

Austin, TX 78745
$450,000
4 Bed 2 Bath 1,217 sqft $370/sqft Built 1975 0.16 acres 2-Car Garage Pool Hillside Oaks

Modern upgrades, a hot South Austin location, and a price tag that doesn’t make you choke on your coffee. Tucked into established Hillside Oaks in 78745, this 1975 single-story has been thoughtfully refreshed without erasing the character that makes older homes worth loving. The roof is just two years old, and inside, crisp modern finishes meet vaulted, beamed ceilings and a brick wood-burning fireplace that give the home plenty of personality.

The living room feels relaxed and inviting, with beamed and vaulted ceilings, updated luxury vinyl plank flooring, recessed lighting, a modern fan, and soft white walls that let your own style take over. The kitchen gets the biggest refresh, with quartz counters, subway tile, Shaker cabinetry with pull-out drawers, and stainless appliances. The adjacent laundry room adds extra pantry storage, while the dining area’s built-in bench seating brings a little personality - and useful storage - to the space.

The primary suite feels especially pulled together, with an accent wall, updated flooring, and a modern ensuite featuring a dual vanity, frameless glass walk-in shower, contemporary tile, and a custom walk-in closet with an organization system.

The backyard is where this home punches above its square footage. There’s a covered patio set up made for hanging cafe lights, garden beds, and a spacious lawn for pets, play, and more. No HOA, plus Google Fiber is already wired to the house.

And the location? Six miles from Downtown and Lady Bird Lake, with South Menchaca hang out spots, restaurants, groceries, retail, and greenbelt trails all close by. Add sidewalks, well established neighborhood vibes, and a front yard with pretty shade trees, and you’ve got a pretty sweet South Austin setup.

Come see why this one feels like the kind of find that doesn’t stay under the radar for long.

At $370/sqft, this home is 6% below the Austin active market average of $392/sqft, potentially representing value relative to comparable properties currently on the market. View Austin market report →
