Welcome to 2218 Palmera Cove, a fully rebuilt and energy-efficient modern retreat tucked into a quiet cul-de-sac in vibrant Southeast Austin. Reimagined from the studs up, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath home is designed for those who value sustainability, style, and the unbeatable convenience of living minutes from Downtown.
Every detail has been thoughtfully curated for comfort, efficiency, and peace of mind. A Tesla solar system dramatically cuts utility bills, while double-pane Low-E windows, green insulation, and an upgraded HVAC system work together to keep the home cool and costs low. Major investments—including a new roof, foundation, ductwork, and water heater—all come with transferable warranties, offering worry-free ownership for years to come.
Inside, the open-concept layout flows effortlessly across beautiful wood-look luxury laminate floors, accented by clean, modern finishes and warm natural light. The stylish kitchen invites creativity with an island, gas cooking, modern vent hood, and eye-catching herringbone backsplash. Both bathrooms are showstoppers—especially the primary suite’s spa-inspired retreat, featuring dual vanities, dual closets, and soothing, contemporary design. A second bath with a stunning walk-in subway-tiled shower adds even more polish.
Out back, a large covered patio with a serving window creates a perfect setting for entertaining or quiet evenings, while the huge backyard offers endless potential for gardening, play, or simply soaking up the Austin sunshine. Native landscaping and xeriscaping out front add curb appeal with low-maintenance ease.
With no HOA, a warm neighborhood vibe, and easy access to McKinney Falls State Park, Roy Kizer Golf Course, Onion Creek trails, ABIA, and Downtown, 2218 Palmera Cove offers the rare combination of energy-smart living, modern upgrades, and true Austin soul.
