1500 Summit ST # 5

A rare offering in one of Austin's most established enclaves, this meticulously renovated 3-story residence spans just over 2,500 square feet, with 3 bedrooms and a level of finish that speaks to quiet, considered craftsmanship throughout. The private rooftop terrace is the home's defining feature--an unobstructed view of the downtown skyline, framed by the kind of Central Texas sunsets that make this city worth staying in for.

The terrace is plumbed with a gas line, ready for a grill or fireplace, extending the living space outdoors in a way that suits Austin's climate and its culture of easy, open-air gathering.
Set within the Travis Heights school boundaries, the gated community offers 24-hour surveillance, a private one-car garage, and two additional covered spaces--an uncommon convenience this close to the urban core. At the center of the grounds stands a protected heritage oak, its canopy anchoring the property with the kind of shade and stillness rarely found this near downtown.

From here, South Congress, Lady Bird Lake, and the Hike-and-Bike Trail are minutes away, along with the city's better restaurants, coffee shops, and live music rooms. It is, in short, a well-placed foothold in a city that rewards exactly that.
