5401 Joe Sayers Ave, Austin, TX 78756

Modern condo with big backyard in prime Central Austin location! Welcome to this beautifully updated home, ideally situated just steps from the vibrant Burnet Road shopping and dining district! Over the past few years, the home has seen major improvements including fresh interior and exterior paint, a new roof, energy-efficient dual-zone Carrier Greenspeed HVAC, a new water heater, and a 7kW solar panel system that helps save approximately $1,000 annually on electricity. Inside, the open living, dining, and kitchen area is filled with natural light, thanks to a wall of windows that overlook the large backyard. The same level includes one bedroom and a full bath, while the lower level features three additional bedrooms. The downstairs primary suite includes a spa-like bathroom with a travertine tile walk-in shower, soaking tub, and a large walk-in closet that’s nearly the size of a bedroom. Outdoor areas are designed for relaxing and entertaining, with two ground-level patios - one shaded by awnings - and a large second-story terrace connected to the living room, complete with a spiral staircase leading down to the backyard. Mature fig and flowering trees offer a peaceful, garden-like retreat. The exterior is clad in durable HardiPlank siding, and the home offers abundant storage including a 2-car tandem garage with a custom workbench and a generously sized storage room with built-in shelving. Located just 3 miles from UT and 4 miles from downtown Austin, this home offers unbeatable walkability to local hotspots like Torchy’s Tacos, Phil’s Icehouse, Monkey Nest, Amy’s Ice Cream, Fonda San Miguel, Epicerie, Peached Tortilla, East Side Pies, and the 5000 Burnet Food Truck Court - not to mention five coffee shops and the highly anticipated H Mart. You’re also under a mile from H-E-B and a future light rail station, bringing even more accessibility to this already connected neighborhood.
