Modern Austin Townhome in Award-Winning Goodnight Ranch! Welcome to this modern two-story townhome offering an open-concept floor plan designed for comfortable everyday living. Situated on a corner lot, this home is just a two-minute walk from the community pond and provides easy access to the neighborhood’s amenities. Please note: The home is currently vacant. The photos were taken when the property was occupied by the previous tenant. The main living area has high ceilings and wood-tile flooring. The kitchen is complete with granite countertops, a center island, stainless steel appliances, and ample cabinet storage. All appliances — including the refrigerator, washer, and dryer — come with the property, making this a true move-in-ready home. Upstairs, the primary suite includes a private balcony, two closets, and an ensuite bathroom with dual vanities and a walk-in shower. The fenced backyard offers a low-maintenance outdoor escape, and the detached two-car garage delivers extra storage with convenient access just steps from the back door. The owner takes care of all the yard work! Location is a major highlight—situated near some of Austin ISD’s top-rated schools, Onion Creek Park (one of the city’s largest metro parks), and just 8 miles from downtown Austin. McKinney Falls State Park is also nearby, offering hiking, biking, and camping. Award-Winning Community! Goodnight Ranch spans 700+ acres with parks, trails, pools, ponds, and green space throughout — recognized by the Austin Business Journal and Austin Stays Weird as one of Austin's top master-planned communities. Whether you're searching for your next home or your next income property, this one checks every box.

5801 Charles Merle Dr. is a townhome located in Travis County and the 78747 ZIP Code.
