Welcome to 8623 Putnam Dr #A, a thoughtfully updated first-floor condo tucked within a small, close-knit community in the heart of North Central Austin. The complex features just 20 units, creating a peaceful, mostly owner-occupied environment where neighbors take pride in the community. Inside, this true 2-bedroom, 2-bath has spacious living areas and a fantastic huge covered patio! The kitchen has been beautifully updated with custom cabinetry and unique handcrafted MUCHA wood knobs, backsplash, countertops and more. Major systems have also been updated, including a recently replaced HVAC system and roof within the past couple of years, providing peace of mind to buyers. One of the home’s standout features is the private fenced patio, designed as an extension of the living space. It’s the perfect spot to relax with a morning coffee or unwind in the evening while overlooking the courtyard. Just off the patio, you’ll also find a large private storage room, offering valuable extra space rarely found in condo living! The HOA is fully owner-run, with no management company and it covers roof maintenance, landscaping, pest control (interior and exterior), insurance, and includes two reserved parking spaces (#2311 & 2312). To be in 78757 under $225k is unheard of! You’ll be so close to Burnet Road and Anderson Lane. Think mornings at Genuine Joe’s Coffeehouse, groceries from HEB or Fresh Plus, or movie night at Alamo! This condo is a wonderful opportunity to enjoy one of Austin’s most beloved neighborhoods. Minutes away from everything you love about central Austin!
