The Home That Has It All
Tucked into Austin’s beloved University Hills neighborhood, 2401 Lehigh Drive stands out immediately. Sitting on a rare half-acre greenbelt lot, this home delivers the kind of peace and privacy that’s almost impossible to find just minutes from Downtown Austin.
From the curb, you’ll notice the difference: mature shade trees, wide spacing between homes, and a calm, welcoming energy that feels worlds away from the city’s bustle. Inside, the home unfolds in layers – a multi-level layout that makes every space feel intentional and inviting.
The living room anchors the home with built-in bookshelves, a cozy fireplace, and a wall of windows framing lush greenbelt views. The renovated kitchen features quartz countertops, soft-close cabinetry, and stainless steel appliances – the kind of timeless updates that blend beauty and function. Just beyond, the breakfast nook floats above the trees, a peaceful retreat for coffee, reading, or quiet conversation.
Upstairs, all four bedrooms are thoughtfully grouped together for comfort and ease. The primary suite takes things a step further, opening to a private balcony overlooking the greenbelt – a perfect perch for morning coffee or watching the sunset. The ensuite bathroom adds modern functionality with dual vanities and a walk-in shower designed for daily comfort.
Out back, the magic continues. A sprawling deck and shaded yard invite long evenings outdoors, while a protected conservation easement ensures your greenbelt view will stay that way – untouched and undisturbed.
