Single Family Residence for sale in Post Road
Overview
Property Description
STEEL-FRAME MODERN + 2-BED GUEST HOUSE | ST. ELMO DISTRICT | WALLS OF GLASS | 3 MILES TO DOWNTOWN | One property, two fully independent homes in the heart of South Austin's St. Elmo district. The main residence is a steel-framed modern unlike anything else in 78704, with an inverted layout that puts everyday living where the light is: the second story is wrapped in floor-to-ceiling glass, so the open living, dining, and kitchen level floats in the tree canopy with sunlight pouring across hardwood floors, a marble mosaic accent wall, and a gas cooktop kitchen. Downstairs, a glass slider opens to a covered patio sheltered beneath the cantilever, built for year-round entertaining beside the shaded lawn. Out back, the separate 2-bedroom guest house lives like its own address with a full kitchen, gas range, and a private deck built around a mature shade tree, ideal for extended family, a work-from-home setup with real separation, or income potential (buyer to verify permitted use). The location delivers on the lifestyle the architecture promises: steps to Cosmic Coffee and Beer Garden, minutes to the breweries and distilleries of The Yard, duckpin bowling at Pins Mechanical, and South Congress dining, with downtown Austin just 3 miles up the road.
