The area is poised home appreciation with Austin’s new UT Dell Medical Center (integrating MD Anderson Cancer Center) just south of Balcones Woods. Top-rated schools complete the picture, especially Anderson High School with its acclaimed IB program. Balcones Woods was founded in 1976, and this is the first time this property has been on the market – a true generational opportunity. A creek borders the backyard, creating a privacy & buffer with green space & oversized trees. Note this portion of the neighborhood is in the FEMA 500-year floodplain mapping. Covered back patio & oversized backyard. Currently a 3-bedroom home, the generous square footage & oversized rooms provide excellent potential to convert it into a 4+ bedroom residence. Much of the home remains in original condition and will be sold as-is. The seller will need a 60-day leaseback after closing. Exciting renovation possibilities include expanding the vaulted ceilings into a modern open-concept kitchen & living area. The oversized garage could turn into a bedroom/bathroom suite or office. Be sure to explore the Matterport virtual tour for a detailed walkthrough of the layout/floorplan and plan for your make-ready or full remodel. This is a rare chance to be in a desired part of BW w/ tremendous upside in one of Austin’s most beloved family neighborhoods. Read Less
