Property Description

Opportunities like this are becoming increasingly rare in Central Austin. Whether you're looking for a home that helps pay for itself, a place for extended family, or a property with long-term redevelopment potential, this North Loop duplex offers exceptional flexibility. Each unit is approximately 600-square-foot residence features 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, vinyl plank flooring, covered patio space, private entrances, and washer/dryer hookups. Unit A is currently leased, providing immediate rental income, while Unit B is vacant and ready for an owner-occupant or new tenant. For owner-occupiers, this is the ideal house-hacking opportunity—live in one home while rental income from the other helps offset your mortgage. Multi-generational families can enjoy the privacy of separate homes on one property, allowing parents, adult children, or grandparents to live close while maintaining independence. Investors will appreciate the ability to generate income from day one, while developers will recognize the long-term upside in one of Austin's most sought-after urban neighborhoods. Surrounded by higher-value homes ($1M+), this property offers both immediate cash flow and future potential. Inside, the kitchens and bathrooms blend colorful vintage tile with character, creating homes that feel warm and authentic rather than cookie-cutter. Outside, a fully fenced backyard for unit B provides valuable outdoor living space that's increasingly difficult to find in Central Austin, while the covered patios extend each home's usable living area. Nestled in the heart of North Loop, you're just a short walk from neighborhood favorites like Lazarus Brewing, Home Slice Pizza, Golden Horn, Rocco's, Flourish Wine Bar, and local coffee shops, while Mueller is only minutes away with its parks, trails, shopping, and entertainment. This North Loop duplex delivers location, income potential, lifestyle, and future upside in one compelling package.
