About Downtown Homes For Sale

Over the last two decades downtown Austin has transformed itself from a small sleepy town to an energetic, creative and lively city with government, business, restaurants, multiple entertainment districts and retail shops that bring residents to downtown.  Unlike many big cities, downtown Austin is where Austinites go to have fun and relax.  The addition of 1.2 million square feet of brand new office, retail, and residential space has made downtown Austin economically viable and socially attractive to singles, young professionals and young families who want to be where the action is. Downtown Austin is one of the most popular residential markets in Texas. You will find over 3,200 unique residential units in downtown.  Home and condo prices in downtown Austin start at $300,000, but most homes sell for between $500,000 and $1,000,000.

Development plans for rapidly expanding Downtown Austin continue to serge. One the greatest assets of downtown Austin is the recreation and beauty offered by Lady Bird Lake. The lake runs through downtown Austin and includes hike and bike trails around the lake shoreline as well as canoeing, rowing, paddle boarding, swimming and fishing.

Welcome to Unit 5F in the historic Brown Building Lofts. Originally built in 1938 and added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1997, this Austin icon was converted to lofts in the early 2000s. The historic designation means property taxes are dramatically lower than similarly valued downtown properties. A homestead exemption further lowers taxes, making the Brown Building one of Austin’s most affordable downtown addresses. While short-term rentals are prohibited, leases of at least six months are allowed, and the building is popular with traveling tenants. The $588 monthly HOA fee includes a reserved parking space in the attached garage and all utilities except electricity and cable/internet. Gigabit internet service is available. Unit 5F includes dramatic east-facing downtown views and has dual window shades. The solar shade filters direct sun and the powered blackout shade affords total privacy. The unit includes appliances, including refrigerator, newer Bosch dishwasher, microwave, electric range, and washer/dryer located in a laundry closet. A chilled water system provides cooling, and a building boiler provides heat & hot water. This unit features the original terrazzo floors and steel casement windows with 10.5’ exposed concrete ceilings. Located right off the secure elevators, in/out access is quick. The elegant deco lobby is accessible to building occupants only. The building includes a fitness room and rooftop sundeck for enjoying sunsets & twilight breezes. The Brown Building is very pet-friendly! Located close to Austin nightlife destinations but in a quiet part of downtown.
