Welcome to southeast Austin’s most honest listing. This 2-bedroom, 1.5-bath, two-story townhouse is the perfect blend of “used to be nice” and “could be nice again if you’re brave and handy.” You’ll be greeted by genuine granite countertops—because someone did remodel, and then tenants happened. The rest of the house? Let’s call it “DIY-friendly.” The open floor plan comes with a strong hint of dog (a true Austin scent profile) and carpet that tells a story only bleach and therapy (& clearly the dogs) could unravel. Step onto your screened-in porch, thoughtfully pre-opened by said dogs who believed in freedom. The washer and dryer are included—think of them less as appliances and more as conversation pieces (condition unknown). A refrigerator and range, however, are not. You’ll love the green space and proximity to McKinney Falls State Park and ABIA—perfect for a quick escape when your renovation optimism wears off. If you’ve ever said “I just want something with potential” while sipping cold brew and wearing Tevas, congratulations—this is your moment. Lovely Lane has never lived up to its name quite like this.
