3 Bed 3 Bath 1,494 sqft $435/sqft Built 1961 0.15 acres 1-Car Garage Pool Allandale North Sec 01

This move-in-ready mid-century home preserves its original charm while offering extensive, thoughtful updates for today’s lifestyle. The home features a smart, efficient layout that lives comfortably and flows beautifully. The light-filled space is anchored by large front windows in the living room and primary bedroom, with luxury vinyl plank flooring downstairs and restored original pine hardwood floors upstairs, uncovered and refinished after the current owners’ purchase in 2021. A fully permitted primary bathroom addition was also completed after the current owners' purchase in 2021 and creates a true retreat featuring dual vanities and a large walk-in shower with dual shower-heads.

Smart custom storage is integrated throughout, including a redesigned under-stair area with a pantry, deep coat and storage closet, and custom pull-out shoe racks, as well as custom Elfa closet systems and custom built-in bookshelves in the upstairs bedrooms.

Major system updates provide peace of mind, including replacement of the original cast iron plumbing with PVC and replacement of the windows by the prior owners, replacement of the roof by the current owners, and a newer HVAC system installed around 2020/2021 that has been serviced and maintained. Energy-efficient upgrades include mini-split A/C units upstairs, added insulation, radiant barrier, and an attic fan. The home has also been pre-inspected, offering buyers added confidence in its condition.

Outside, the private backyard offers a covered patio, newer fencing, and thoughtful landscaping, along with a rare sense of space with only one direct neighbor. The neighborhood itself is a standout - friendly, active, and community-oriented, with neighbors often out walking their dogs or kids and a strong sense of connection fostered through regular neighborhood events. All of this is set in a friendly, community-oriented neighborhood just minutes from downtown Austin, UT, Q2 Stadium, parks, restaurants, and coffee shops.

At $435/sqft, this home is priced 11% above the Austin active market average of $392/sqft, reflecting premium positioning, typically tied to finishes, lot, location, or view. View Austin market report →

Neighborhood Context

About Allandale

Allandale is North Central Austin's original family neighborhood - platted in the 1950s and shaped by decades of homeowners who chose it for its tree-lined streets, strong schools, and community identity. Bounded roughly by 45th Street to the south, Koenig Lane to the north, MoPac to the west, and Burnet Road to the east, it occupies one of Austin's most convenient locations.

The housing stock is predominantly 1950s to 60s brick ranch homes - modest footprints on generous lots, many with mature live oaks that took 60 years to grow. Renovated Allandale homes command significant premiums, while original-condition homes represent some of the last attainable entry points in North Central Austin. New custom construction is an increasing presence as teardown economics make sense at these lot values.

🍽️
Burnet Road Corridor

Allandale's eastern edge is lined with some of Austin's best independent restaurants, coffee shops, and bars. Uchi, Violet Crown Cinema, Foreign & Domestic, Epoch Coffee - all within walking distance of many Allandale addresses.

🌳
Mature Tree Canopy

Sixty years of live oak growth creates a canopy that makes Allandale feel noticeably cooler and quieter than newer Austin neighborhoods. The trees are a defining asset - and an Austin Heritage Tree protection means they're here to stay.

🏫
McCallum High School

McCallum is one of Austin ISD's most respected high schools - known for its Fine Arts Academy (one of the top performing arts magnet programs in Texas) and strong academics. It's a major draw for families with high school-age children.

🚶
Walkable Errands

Allandale residents walk to coffee, restaurants, a hardware store, and neighborhood shops on a regular basis. It's not a walk-everywhere neighborhood, but the Burnet Road corridor makes daily errands genuinely walkable from the eastern half of the neighborhood.
