Property Overview

This meticulously renovated four-bedroom in Allandale showcases the rare combination of mid-century charm and modern systems, sitting on a generous 8,494-square-foot lot with potential for accessory dwelling. The current owners invested heavily in the infrastructure that buyers typically worry about: new roof, HVAC, water heater, electrical panel, windows throughout, and enhanced insulation. The interior reflects thoughtful design with an open-concept living and dining area flowing seamlessly into a chef's kitchen featuring quartz countertops, high-end appliances, and peninsula seating, all complemented by updated flooring, bathrooms, and cabinetry.

What truly sets 3105 Borden Road apart is the exceptional parking and privacy rarely found in central Austin. Six off-street spaces accommodate multiple vehicles, while a gated driveway provides direct access to the rear portion of the lot, positioning this property ideally for those considering future expansion. The location places buyers at the heart of Allandale's strong community, with proximity to Shoal Creek, excellent schools, and convenient access to downtown without the premium price point.

Vox Real Estate Insight

At $421 per square foot, this property aligns perfectly with Allandale's median while offering systems and infrastructure upgrades that eliminate the typical renovation burden of mid-century homes. The Vox Real Estate team recognizes that the real value here lies not just in what's been completed, but in the rare opportunity to develop the rear lot space—a future-proofing advantage that separates this Borden Road home from comparable inventory across the neighborhood.

Agent Description

This is a rare opportunity in Allandale: a four-bedroom where the expensive, invisible work is already done, on a private gated lot with room at the back for a second dwelling. Every window in the house has been replaced. Newer roof, new HVAC and water heater, a new air duct system, and added insulation in the walls. The electrical breaker box has been replaced as well. Almost nothing in this house is original. The original floor-plan has been opened up: two distinct living areas and a dedicated dining room now flow into a center kitchen with quartz countertops and peninsula seating, with all-new high-end appliances. Floors, bathrooms, and cabinetry were redone throughout, with quality finishes. Parking is rare in this neighborhood: two cars in the open driveway, two more behind the private gate, and two in the detached garage, that makes a total of six off-street spaces. That gated drive runs past the house to the rear of the lot, so a future guest house or garage apartment would have its own separate entrance, independent of the main house. No HOA, no association dues, no approvals to work through. Allandale offers what buyers look for and rarely find this close in: quiet streets and mature trees, with Northwest District Park nearby for trails, tennis and basketball courts, playgrounds, and a public pool. Gullett Elementary is a short walk away, and attendance continues to Lamar Middle and McCallum High, both home to Austin ISD's Fine Arts Academy programs. The Domain, Q2 Stadium, the Burnet Road and Anderson Lane restaurant corridors, major tech campuses, and downtown Austin are all 5 to 15 minutes out.
