Property Overview
This Highland Park West condominium at 5326 Balcones Drive commands one of the community's most exceptional settings, where mature oak trees frame three sides of windows and flood the 992-square-foot interior with natural light. The second-floor, two-bedroom, two-bath unit sits elevated above the manicure-ready pool and overlooks the property's lush green spaces, creating a home-like retreat rarely found in condo living. Fresh paint, light wood plank flooring, and vintage-charming tile work throughout give the space both character and brightness, while the location ensures absolute privacy with no units stacked above.
The Austin, TX address on Balcones Drive positions residents steps from everyday conveniences: Randall's grocery sits directly across the street, quality restaurants and coffee shops line the nearby blocks, and the fire station anchors the neighborhood just diagonal from the entrance. The HOA structure is notably efficient, with hot water and gas included in reasonable monthly dues, plus two reserved parking spaces plus abundant guest parking for visitors. Walkability defines this corner of Highland Park West, situated near the MoPac and 2222 intersection while maintaining the community's quieter, residential character.
