Property details
About 1502 Alta Vista Ave
Location, location, location! Perched high on one of the most coveted streets in Travis Heights, 1502 Alta Vista Avenue is a golden opportunity for renovators, developers, or investors. Whether you envision a top-to-bottom renovation to restore the original 1930's charm of the home, or a bold redevelopment into a striking contemporary residence with the potential for downtown views, this unique site offers endless possibilities. The property has most recently functioned as a triplex providing multi-unit income, and can be easily converted back to such with the closure of one doorway. In addition, the approximately 565 square foot artist studio provides a flex space with a half bathroom, or the potential for a stand alone fourth unit with the expansion of existing plumbing and electrical to include a full bathroom and kitchen. Perfectly positioned just moments from the lively South Congress scene and local favorites such as Town Lake Trail, Little Stacy Park, Big Stacy Pool, and more. Alternatively, opt for a peaceful and quiet night in and enjoy the Texas Hill Country sunsets beneath the heritage oaks in your west-facing backyard. Don’t let this incredible opportunity pass you by!
