Description

Tucked beneath mature shade trees in one of South Austin's most connected neighborhoods, 5206 Emerald Forest Dr delivers the kind of move-in ready, fully updated home that's genuinely hard to find at this price. Four bedrooms, two renovated baths, and 1,250+ sqft of thoughtfully upgraded living space — all on a generous, fenced .155-acre lot. The renovated kitchen anchors the home with ample counter space, a built in gas range, stainless appliances, and a sliding glass door that floods the dining area with natural light and opens to a large, tree-shaded backyard. The primary suite features an en suite bath, dressing area, and walk-in closet. The flexible 4th bedroom — a fully finished, climate-controlled garage conversion — works equally well as a guest room, home office, or gym. Built-in storage throughout, dedicated laundry/mudroom, and luxury vinyl plank floors (no carpet) round out a home that's as functional as it is comfortable. Major systems updated 2022: roof, low-e double-paned windows. Washer, dryer, and refrigerator all convey. Minutes to St. Elmo, Radio Coffee, El Chilito, St. David's South, and Downtown Austin.
