1601 E Cesar Chavez St, Unit 104 — Live/Work Retail Condo
A two-level live/work retail condo on the East Cesar Chavez corridor — street-front visibility, true dual-use flexibility, and downtown at your doorstep.
Own Your Storefront and the Floor Above It
Unit 104 at 1601 E Cesar Chavez is a rare acquisition format for East Austin: a two-level live/work retail condo with a full kitchen and bathroom on each level, dual entry — street-front retail below, private upper access above — and true flexibility across retail, office, studio, or service use.
The corridor does the marketing: 15,000+ vehicles per day on East Cesar Chavez, dense residential growth on every side (17.5 percent population growth within a mile, 2020–2025), premium household incomes, and a walkable position minutes from downtown, Lady Bird Lake, and Rainey Street. For an owner-user, the math is a storefront that builds equity instead of a landlord’s; for an investor, it’s a corridor asset in the smallest, most liquid ticket size East Austin offers.
