About 1308 E 12th St
Incredible East Austin location just steps from the cultural corridor that Time Out named one of the “Coolest Streets in the World.†This recently updated home blends modern style with historic neighborhood charm—offering a rare combination of flexibility, income potential, and walkability in one of Austin’s most desirable areas. Although technically a 3 bedroom / 2 bath, the layout also works beautifully as a 2 bed / 1 bath main residence with a separate 1 bed / 1 bath suite. The owner is amenable to short-term rental use of that suite, which is an unusually open arrangement for the area—perfect for house hacking, long-term guests, or an Airbnb setup (tenants to verify STR permitting). Step inside to find modern finishes throughout, with new interior and exterior paint, updated flooring, refreshed kitchen and baths, upgraded plumbing fixtures, and stylish lighting. Natural light floods every space, and the thoughtful updates preserve the character of East Austin while providing today’s comfort and convenience. Outside, enjoy a location that puts you within minutes of everything Austin loves most—Franklin Barbecue, Paperboy, Hillside Farmacy, Nickel City, Vintage Bookstore & Wine Bar, the Texas Music Museum, UT Campus, and downtown Austin. The surrounding Swede Hill / Central East Austin area is known for its tree-lined streets, walkable charm, and community spirit. Homes here rarely offer this level of versatility, condition, and location together. Whether you’re seeking an income-producing property, a flexible multi-use layout, or a move-in-ready home near downtown, this is a truly special find. Schedule your showing today and see why this pocket of East Austin continues to earn national attention as one of the city’s most dynamic and livable neighborhoods.
1308 E 12th St is located in the East Downtown Neighborhood and 78702 Zip code of Austin, TX.
