4912 Dorchester Heights LN Austin, TX 78754

An affordable GEM less than 10 miles from the Texas Capitol building in downtown Austin! Colonial Place, a small gated community of single family homes off Springdale Road, has a charming park and picnic area to greet residents and guests as they come through the front gate. This home sits at the very top end of the neighborhood near a secondary exit gate that is rarely used and no houses across the street. Just outside the gates of the community feels open and almost rural. Up the road is the Barr Mansion Ballroom, a lovely wedding venue with an elegant country setting, and the Walnut Creek meanders nearby helping to keep the area green and lush. Big Walnut Creek Nature Preserve is a good spot for dogs and walking/hiking. 5 miles away is the Mueller development with a wonderful weekend farmer's market. This 3 bedroom/2 bath home has an open floor plan, high ceilings, a good size living area with fireplace, walk-in closets, and a private fenced backyard. This is a terrific opportunity for someone looking to own versus rent!
