When a Mueller property combines thoughtful design, high-end finishes, sustainable upgrades, and a prime location - all in one address - it tends to move quickly. 4512 Ruiz Street is exactly that kind of listing.

This 3-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom single-family home offers 2,296 square feet of well-planned living space on one of Mueller's most desirable streets, just steps from Girard Kinney Lake Park (formerly Mueller Lake Park) and the vibrant dining and entertainment corridor along Aldrich Street.

Take the virtual tour:

First Impressions: Flexible Space and Open Living

The home opens with a versatile flex area at the front - easily configured as a dedicated home office, formal dining room, or sitting room depending on your lifestyle. It's a detail that signals the thoughtful approach carried throughout the property.

Moving into the main living area, hardwood floors and a wall of windows frame a generous living room that looks out toward the private rear yard. The combination of light, space, and view creates the kind of environment that makes a home feel genuinely livable from day one.

A Kitchen That Commands Attention

The kitchen is positioned as the gathering center of the first floor - and rightfully so. A 9-foot granite center island anchors the space, flanked by stainless steel appliances and a walk-in pantry. The open layout allows the kitchen to transition seamlessly into the dining and living areas, creating an easy, connected flow ideal for both daily routines and entertaining.

Second Floor: Bedrooms Designed for Function and Comfort

All three bedrooms are located on the second floor, providing a clear separation between living and sleeping spaces. Two guest bedrooms are connected by a Jack and Jill bathroom off the main hallway - a smart, efficient layout for families or households with multiple occupants.

The primary suite offers the comfort and privacy buyers expect at this price point, featuring a double vanity, soaking tub, and walk-in shower. A second-floor balcony extends the suite's living space outdoors, delivering elevated views of the Mueller streetscape and the mature tree canopy - a genuine point of distinction for this home.

Outdoor Living: Designed for Year-Round Enjoyment

The rear of the property reflects the same intentionality found throughout the interior. Professionally maintained landscaping sets the stage for a rear patio with misting fans - keeping outdoor time comfortable even during Austin summers - and a pergola with a custom built-in grill that elevates al fresco dining and entertaining.

The home is also equipped with solar panels and an EV charger in the garage, two increasingly standard features for Austin buyers who prioritize both sustainability and long-term cost efficiency.

Location in Context: Mueller's Most Walkable Features

Location in Mueller is everything, and 4512 Ruiz is positioned perfectly. You're a 5-minute walk from the Mueller Sunday Farmers' Market, the Thinkery, and the Alamo Drafthouse. Girard Kinney Lake Park (formerly Mueller Lake Park) - all 30 acres of it - is right there with its hike and bike trails, playgrounds, and community events.

For commuters, you're less than 5 miles from Downtown Austin and about 8 miles from Austin-Bergstrom International Airport. That's the kind of access that's hard to find at any price point in Austin.
