Built in 2024 by Pacesetter Homes, this cottage-style home offers the advantages of newer construction without the wait. The welcoming front porch, attractive exterior, and meticulous care give it outstanding curb appeal. Inside, the efficient floor plan makes excellent use of the space. The main level includes the living, dining, and kitchen areas, along with a half bath and laundry closet. The kitchen features quartz countertops, a gas range, and a generous pantry. Upstairs, the primary suite includes a walk-in shower, while the secondary bath offers a tub/shower combination.

The detached garage provides valuable parking, storage, and includes a Tesla charger. An added 10' x 14' patio expands the backyard with space for outdoor dining, relaxing, or adding a future pergola.

Located in Blanco Vista, residents enjoy a community pool, parks, walking and biking trails, the Blanco River, an on-site elementary school, and convenient access to IH-35. Texas State University, shopping, dining, and major employers in both Austin and San Antonio are all within easy reach.

Whether you're looking for your first home, a low-maintenance primary residence, or an investment opportunity, this property checks all the boxes. Buying can be a smart alternative to renting for Texas State families, and this home offers an excellent opportunity for parents or investors seeking housing for students while building equity instead of paying rent. With three bedrooms, newer construction, and one of the lowest price points in Blanco Vista, it's an affordable entry into one of San Marcos' most established and desirable communities.

Recent FEMA rezoning (April 2026) places the property in Zone X (shaded), and flood insurance is not required.

At $190/sqft, this home is 17% below the San Marcos active market average of $229/sqft, potentially representing value relative to comparable properties currently on the market. View Austin market report →
