Property Overview

This Barton Hills residence on Oltorf Street presents a compelling opportunity that extends well beyond its beautifully remodeled interiors. The 1957-built home showcases custom contemporary finishes, rich wood flooring, and an open floor plan anchored by a kitchen featuring a generous island and stainless steel appliances. A flexible bonus room accommodates a home office, guest quarters, or additional living space, while the move-in-ready condition eliminates typical renovation headaches. Priced at $529 per square foot—six percent below the Barton Hills area median—this 3-bedroom, 1-bath home offers solid value in one of Austin's most desirable neighborhoods.

Beyond the residence itself, the 7,618-square-foot lot unlocks exceptional development potential. The property's zoning allows for multifamily, duplex, or townhouse development, a rare prospect in this proximity to Zilker Park and Barton Creek Greenbelt. Owner-occupants enjoy direct access to nature trails and swimming holes, while investors recognize the land value and adaptive use possibilities that few properties in this pocket offer. The private front courtyard sets the stage for outdoor living, all within walking distance of the Hill Country views and recreational amenities that define the Bouldin Creek area.
