Description

Offset your mortgage. Build equity faster. Live smarter. Updated former 3 bedroom/2 bath model home in Franklin Park featuring a private 1+ bedroom garage apartment with its own entrance, kitchenette, and separate AC system — previously operated as a fully licensed, high-demand short-term rental generating $24,000+ per year over the past five years (with post-pandemic increases).

Google Fiber modem installed. Bonus: the property shares a grid with the local fire station — electricity has remained connected during recent winter weather events The yard is shaded by a professionally maintained century-old live oak in front and a vibrant red oak in back. Shed, playset, refrigerator, washer, and dryer can convey with acceptable offer. Located in Southeast Austin’s Franklin Park neighborhood where you can walk to the park, pool, library, restaurants, bus stop, and daily essentials.
