Property Description
FOR LEASE in South Austin - 78745 - This timeless mid-century rancher in Mimosa Manor captures everything people love about Old Austin, from its limestone exterior to the sprawling .3-acre lot shaded by mature trees and the rare three car garage. Inside, it's all about space and substance. Vaulted wood-beamed ceilings stretch across a living room big enough for real gatherings. The stone fireplace has seen its share of laughter and late nights, while the open layout offers an easy flow between the kitchen, dining, and living. The kitchen, although updated with modern finishes, keeps its charm with butcher block counters, stainless appliances, and a breakfast bar where coffee and conversation meet every morning. Original hardwoods and brick-accented floors carry the story from room to room. The primary suite is huge with built-in drawers and a door that opens straight to the backyard. The ensuite bath keeps the character but adds a punch of modern edge; tile-wrapped walk-in shower, a long vanity, and plenty of light. The backyard feels like its own little pocket of Austin; quiet, shaded, and full of potential. The trees cast just the right amount of afternoon shade across the lawn. There's space for a long picnic table, a hammock, maybe even a garden or a chicken coop. There's even a storage shed for your gear and yard essentials. You're also only 7 miles from downtown and minutes from Mopac, but you'd never know it. Homes like this don't show up often, so come see it today and experience the rare mix of space, soul, and authenticity that defines this incredible home!
