Property Description

Set on the corner of Avenue C and West 42nd, this 0.13 acre lot is nestled beneath a canopy of mature oak trees, offering something increasingly hard to find in central Austin: land and location as the primary value. The existing facade holds its place along the historic streetscape, offering a rare opportunity to build new construction while retaining an established architectural presence on the street — a distinction few lots in the district can offer. Positioned on a tree-lined street in the heart of Hyde Park, the setting captures everything that makes this pocket of Austin so sought-after: mature landscaping, historic character, and walkable charm just minutes from the University of Texas and downtown. Neighborhood favorites like First Light Books, All Day Pizza, Quack's Bakery, and the shops along Duval Street are all close at hand, along with the green space of Shipe Park. This isn't just a lot. It's a foundation for something exceptional, in a neighborhood defined by its history, its trees, and its enduring appeal.
