Property Description
719 Springdale Rd is a reminder that opportunity is not measured in square feet. Tucked behind a gated entrance in Austin’s Govalle neighborhood, this 1947 2-bed, 1-bath home measures approximately 684 square feet and sits on a substantial 7,035-square-foot lot with approximately 50 feet of frontage and 145 feet of depth. The home is full of old Austin character. A long gated drive runs alongside the home and opens into an expansive rear portion of the lot, creating an unusual amount of usable outdoor space for a property this close to the heart of the city. There is room to garden, entertain, create, park, work, and simply breathe. For buyers looking beyond the existing footprint, the lot dimensions and current home placement may create compelling possibilities for expansion, an accessory dwelling unit, a live work setup, income producing use, or a broader redevelopment vision. And then there is Govalle, an East Austin neighborhood where original homes coexist with modern construction, studios, galleries, and creative spaces. Canopy, the Govalle Cultural District, Govalle Neighborhood Pool, hike and bike trails, Boggy Creek Farm, local restaurants, and neighborhood businesses are nearby, with convenient access to Downtown, Airport Blvd., US 183, and I-35. Previously used as an office, the existing home offers added flexibility for an owner-occupant, investor, or buyer seeking a hybrid home, workspace, and future value strategy. The opportunity here extends well beyond the home’s footprint.
