Gated lock-and-leave living awaits in Gabardine Gardens at Shady Hollow, a South Austin enclave of fewer than 100 homes. Part of an elevated condo community with no shared walls, this two-story home lives like a single-family residence while offering the convenience of HOA-maintained exterior and common areas. Approximately 2,100 sq. ft., 4 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, and a 2-car attached garage with nearby guest parking. Inside, the open-concept layout is filled with natural light and features high ceilings, engineered wood flooring, and plush bedroom carpet. The kitchen offers quartz countertops, abundant cabinetry, a step-in pantry, dedicated workspace, stainless steel appliances, and a freestanding gas range with double ovens. Refrigerator, washer, and dryer convey. A spacious utility room provides additional storage space. The oversized, fully fenced backyard sets this home apart, offering room to garden, entertain, relax, or enjoy time outdoors. This home's entry-level pricing for this neighborhood means more of your budget can go toward personalizing paint, flooring, and other finishes to match your style. Beyond the home itself, Gabardine Gardens offers a genuine sense of community and everyday quality of life that's hard to match. Mature trees shade the streets throughout the neighborhood, and neighbors gather for organized community events and an occasional game of pickleball in the parking lot — creating the kind of camaraderie that makes this feel like home. Community amenities include gated entry, a pool, walking trails, landscaped green spaces, and HOA-maintained exterior and common areas, all of which add up to exceptional value for the low-maintenance lifestyle it delivers. Convenient South Austin location near South Menchaca dining, coffee shops, breweries, and everyday services, with access to Brodie Lane, MoPac, and SH 45. Zoned to Baranoff Elementary, Bailey Middle School, and Bowie High School; buyer to verify school assignment and eligibility.
