About 5516 Link Ave
Welcome to 5516 Link Ave, a meticulously maintained residence in the highly walkable North Loop neighborhood. Set on a corner lot with a private fenced yard, fresh interior paint, and hardwood floors throughout, this property offers a clean, functional layout with standout outdoor space. Connected to the neighboring unit only by the garages, this property lives more like a separate single-family home than a traditional attached unit. The first floor includes an open living and dining area with high ceilings, large windows, a ceiling fan, and a switch-activated fireplace. The kitchen features granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, gas cooking, generous cabinet space, a large pantry, and a breakfast bar. All bedrooms have their own full bathrooms. The primary suite includes a dual vanity, granite counters, a walk-in shower, and an oversized walk-in closet with an adjustable storage system, hanging space, shelving, and pull-out drawers. Washer and dryer are included in the first-floor laundry room. Additional features include a 240V outlet for EV charging, Google Fiber, a Nest thermostat, security wiring, and outdoor storage. Lawn care is included. The fenced yard offers gated access from both Link Avenue and 56th Street, with front access to the garage and side access for additional parking. Zoned to highly regarded Lamar Middle School and McCallum High School. Walk to North Loop's restaurants, coffee shops, and boutiques, with quick access to The Triangle, Central Market North, Blue Genie Art Bazaar, The Linc, I-35, and 290. Downtown Austin is approximately five miles away.
