You’ll enjoy living outside Austin’s city limits in this spacious home on a large almost half acre lot. So many upgrades have been done: the wiring including electrical panels and all of the plumbing including sewer lines to the street has been replaced, both AC units and the 2 commercial grade water heaters are less than 5 years old, whole house water softener and reverse osmosis water filters, new gutters and more. Walking in the foyer, you will see the oversized family room with beautiful hardwood floors and a fireplace. This room is open to the dining room that overlooks the beautiful backyard. The kitchen has plenty of counter cabinet and pantry space and the 2 bar areas allow friends and family to stay close to the action. There are 4 bedrooms with 3.5 baths total. You’ll love the family/music room in the back of the house which has great light filtering through the windows and an attached coffee or adult beverage bar. A good sized workshop with plenty of room for all of your projects and hobbies connects the large 2 car garage to the house and there is a 2 car covered carport as well. The house is on city water, but also has a well and 2 rain barrels, making watering your garden and yard easy. The sellers have previously had chickens and geese on site, so you can truly have your homestead all in one spot. You’ll love enjoying evenings in the Cowboy pool watching the stars or a movie on the back porch’s retractable projection screen. This home has everything you need to spread out and enjoy life.

What is an assumable mortgage?
An assumable mortgage is a type of home loan that allows a homebuyer to take over the existing mortgage terms from the seller, with no cost to the seller. Many government-backed loans, such as FHA and VA loans, are eligible for assumption, and millions of these mortgages are available.
Why is an assumable mortgage valuable?
When interest rates on mortgages are high, assuming a mortgage with a rate as low as 2% allows buyers to save up to thousands monthly compared to buying a home with a traditional mortgage at today’s average rates of 7%. A low-rate assumable mortgage could be the key to finding your dream home at an affordable price.
