Property description

Welcome to 2606 Friar Tuck Lane where storybook charm meets one of South Austin's most coveted zip codes, 78704! Located in the Sherwood Oaks neighborhood, this 1,612-square-foot, single-story home boasts 3 bedrooms + office, 2 bathrooms, primary suite with walk-in closet and fireplace, garage, and detached workshop on a nearly quarter-acre lot. The house underwent a full renovation and expansion in 2007 and more recent upgrades include a new HVAC, insulation, gutters and appliances. An adorable stone walkway welcomes you to 2606 Friar Tuck, recently enhanced with fresh landscaping. Inside, a newly painted spacious open interior is accented by a skylight and large bay window, and beautifully maintained hardwood floors (no carpet anywhere!). As the center hub of the home, the updated white kitchen blends original charm with stainless-steel appliances, stone countertops, and an adorable built-in banquette. Just beyond the kitchen is a flexible office/study and a spacious primary suite that is a private, light-filled retreat with a cozy gas fireplace, dual-sink bath, and generous walk-in closet. Two additional bedrooms and a full bath are positioned on the opposite side of the home, ideal for kids, guests, or additional offices. Outdoors is an expansive flagstone patio to enjoy your sprawling private backyard. Also, there is a separate building with power and A/C – currently an at-home gym – has potential for many uses. Just blocks to iconic South Congress – dining, popular local shops, boutiques, and live music venues are right at your doorstep. Also just eight houses from St. Edward’s University and around the corner to Curra’s (best avocado margarita!), Greek Bar (a local gem) and the new H-E-B. A neighborhood nature preserve boasts great trails and Stacy Pool – free pool access year round! Bonus, downtown and airport are less than a 10-minute drive. Don’t miss this jewel that offers a quiet neighborhood in the heart of the city – a fairytale Austin life!
