1840 Burton Dr

A mid-1980s low-rise condominium complex in southeast Austin composed primarily of one-bedroom apartments. The project’s scale is garden-style rather than towered, with multiple small buildings arranged around surface parking, exterior walkways, and pockets of shared landscaping. Units typically feature vaulted or high ceilings, open floorplans with eat-in kitchens or breakfast bars, sliding glass doors to private balconies or patios, and stacked washer/dryer connections often located in a balcony closet or external storage. Interior finishes across the community vary from original 1984-era materials to recently remodeled surfaces such as laminate or waterproof vinyl plank flooring, granite or quartz counters, stainless appliances, and modern tile backsplashes. Bathrooms range from original tubs to updated surrounds. Outdoor common elements include a pool, dog run and designated pet areas, outdoor grills, and lighting; the HOA covers water, trash and cable in many listings and maintains periodic community upgrades. Parking is surface-level; building entries may involve exterior steps or grade access depending on the unit. Pet policies are restricted but permissive (typically one pet per owner). The complex’s location is a defining asset: short drives or bike rides to Lady Bird Lake, South Congress, Riverside retail and Austin’s core, with transit options and shuttle access to the University of Texas nearby. Overall the property delivers compact, affordable urban-oriented one-bedroom homes with a mix of turn-key renovated units and value-add opportunities for investors or owner-occupants seeking proximity to downtown amenities.
