South Austin has a vibe all its own, and 405 Battle Bend puts you right in the middle of it. Tucked into an established, tree-filled neighborhood just minutes from The Yard at St. Elmo, this 3 bed, 2 bath home offers approximately 1,394 square feet, a huge private backyard, and a lifestyle that makes it easy to spend more time outside and less time in the car. A 38-inch Super Heritage Oak makes a statement in the front yard, while mature trees throughout the property create shade and a peaceful, private setting. Inside, the home offers a comfortable, easy-to-live-in layout with a fireplace that can be enjoyed with gas or electric operation. The kitchen is filled with natural light from oversized picture windows, including one that opens to the screened porch with a serving bar that makes passing drinks, dinner, or snacks to guests easy. Out back, the screened porch is made for morning coffee, happy hour, or lingering over dinner while the trees rustle overhead. Beyond the fully private backyard, the fence opens directly to the Williamson Creek Greenbelt, putting hiking and mountain biking trails practically at your doorstep. An extended driveway behind the fence provides additional parking for a car, trailer, boat, or other recreational gear. The gently sloping backyard also helps keep the home itself out of the flood plain. And when you're ready to head out, there's plenty to do nearby. Walk or bike to The Yard for food trucks, breweries, Padel Club, Wooly's Beach, and Pins Mechanical, then come home to your own quiet corner of South Austin. I-35 and Downtown are both easily accessible, making it just as easy to head into the city as it is to stay close to home. This is the kind of place that makes South Austin so easy to love: mature trees, outdoor adventure, local hangouts, and that unmistakable Austin spirit.

At $358/sqft, this home is 9% below the Austin active market average of $393/sqft, potentially representing value relative to comparable properties currently on the market. View Austin market report →
