Price just dropped 25k! Nestled in the heart of midtown Austin’s beloved Violet Crown Heights, 1204 Ruth Avenue is the kind of place that makes you fall in love with your neighborhood and your home. This charming 2-bedroom, 1-bath bungalow sits on an oversized 1/3-acre lot that feels more like your own private park.
