A Standout Duplex Opportunity in South Austin’s 78745! Here’s the kind of investment that gets interesting fast: a duplex in the heart of 78745, in an established neighborhood where location does a lot of the heavy lifting. Both 2-bed/1.5-bath units are currently leased month-to-month, making this a ready-to-go rental play - or a chance to live in one side while the other helps knock down your mortgage. Each two-story unit offers two bedrooms and a full bath upstairs, with living and dining areas, kitchen, laundry, and a half bath downstairs. Both have a private fenced yard with patio, one garage space, driveway parking, and outdoor storage. No fancy bells and whistles here, just the kind of layout renters actually want, in a location that keeps people anchored. The duplex was refreshed in 2021 with Hardi-plank siding and interior and exterior paint. Unit B received the bigger makeover, including quartz counters in the kitchen and baths, subway tile backsplash, updated fixtures, hardware and toilets, making it move-in ready with little fuss. Unit A got some updates, too, while leaving room for a future cosmetic refresh. Even better - easy-care wood-look laminate runs through the main living spaces. And then there’s the location. Set along a bend in the street directly across from a community center with expansive green space, gardens and a neighborhood park, this is 78745 living without the South Austin price tag. William Cannon and Menchaca are right around the corner, with Sprouts, restaurants and everyday essentials close at hand. Downtown Austin is just 7 miles away, with retail galore in all directions. South Austin’s restaurants, bars, shops and entertainment scattered in every direction. Buy it as an investment. Live in one side. Rent both. However you play it, this is the kind of property worth a closer look.
