Single Family Residence for sale in Malone
Overview
Property Description
**POTENTIAL 2.5% VA LOAN ASSUMPTION + CERTIFIED SOLAR HOME!** Discover contemporary living in this 2020-built Lennar Bassella in the Malone community of South Austin. Offering 4 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms and approximately 2,127 square feet, this thoughtfully designed two-story home combines flexible living spaces, modern finishes and energy-efficient features. An open-concept living, dining and kitchen area creates a welcoming setting for everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen features 36-inch upper cabinets and generous storage. Enjoy a covered rear patio, landscaped yard and irrigation system. The spacious primary suite is upstairs, while a downstairs guest bedroom with an adjacent full bathroom provides flexibility for visitors, a home office or multigenerational living. **Professionally evaluated solar system:** The property received a Sprk Certified Solar Home Grade A evaluation, with reported A grades for production, remaining life, and safety/quality. The evaluation estimates approximately $1,261 in annual electricity savings ($105/month). Actual savings depend on energy usage, utility rates and other factors. See the solar information graphic and supporting report for details. **Potential financing advantage:** An existing VA mortgage with an approximately $316,000 balance at 2.5% may be assumable by a qualified buyer, subject to servicer and applicable VA approval. Secondary purchase financing may be available through Certified Funding, potentially allowing a buyer to purchase with approximately 5% down, subject to qualification and lender terms. At a $444,900 purchase price, an illustrative combination of the assumed mortgage and a second mortgage at 7.1% produces estimated principal-and-interest payments of approximately $2,134/month, compared with $2,840/month for a conventional 30-year loan at 7.1% with the same down payment.
