Situated harmoniously among original turn-of-the-century, mid-century modern & contemporary structures, 203 Leland speaks to the eccentric & evolved history of Travis Heights. Originally platted in the 1870’s, Travis Heights is Austin’s premier & most exclusive urban community offering unbeatable access & views of Downtown Austin. Tucked behind heritage oaks & towering pecan trees, 203 Leland was developed out of J.M. Swishers Addition in 1877. At the time called ‘The Village of South Austin'. Located in 78704, one block from South Congress Avenue, you’ll be able to walk or bike to the SoCo scene where you can shop along Music Lane, gather at Soho House, dine at famed Guero’s taco bar, dance at The Continental Club and stroll the many vintage shops celebrating South Austin’s art & cultural scene every First Thursday of the month. Each year, South by Southwest ignites the Avenue in culture, live music & art. Leland features an opportunity to work within in the essence of historical significance, all the while benefiting from the modern-day benefits of a multi-structure office. The folk Victorian main house, built in 1900, provides plenty of room for several to live comfortably, and the detached secondary home, built in 1947, expands the option for a growing firm or complimentary business tenant. The third-acre lot features privacy fencing, shade trees, a pool with an indoor cabana, a motor court from one driveway, and a double carport from a second driveway. A short walk out the front door drops you at one of Austin’s few remaining moon towers, which provided electric light to Big Stacy Park and Pool, built in 1930. Meander along Blunn Creek and Stacy Greenbelt to the many remaining historic structures and residences of Travis Heights and Fairview Park.
