Welcome to 4408 Barrow Avenue, a rare opportunity in the heart of Austin's highly sought-after Hyde Park neighborhood. This beautifully updated 1930s home offers timeless character, modern comfort, and exceptional flexibility with two additional dwelling units (ADUs) zoned for commercial use, making it ideal for multigenerational living, guest accommodations, a home office, or potential income-producing opportunities.
Privately tucked away just off E. 45th Street and backing to the peaceful Waller Creek, the property is surrounded by mature trees and offers a tranquil setting in the middle of the city. Inside, you'll find beautiful hardwood floors, abundant natural light, neutral finishes, and charming built-in features that showcase the home's original character. The main home features two spacious bedrooms, one full bathroom, a formal dining room with built-in shelving, and a kitchen complete with a breakfast nook, generous pantry, and adjacent laundry room.
The two additional living spaces each have private exterior entrances and full bathrooms. The larger unit is already plumbed for a kitchen, offering excellent potential for a private guest suite, multigenerational living, or future rental opportunities. Buyers are encouraged to verify any intended use and applicable city regulations.
Step outside to the expansive rear deck overlooking Waller Creek, creating the perfect space to relax, entertain, and enjoy the surrounding nature and wildlife.
Located just minutes from The University of Texas, Downtown Austin, Mueller, Dell Medical School, and St. David's Medical Center, this home offers unbeatable access to some of Austin's best restaurants, coffee shops, parks, shopping, and entertainment. With quick access to I-35, US-290, and Airport Boulevard, 4408 Barrow combines the charm of historic Hyde Park with the convenience of Central Austin living.
