Property Description

Backed by a tree-lined creek and set on nearly half an acre, this 5,000 sq ft residence has been transformed with over $800K in renovations. The result is a one-of-a-kind home that blends timeless craftsmanship in a setting that feels connected to nature while still close to everything Austin has to offer. Step through custom steel entry doors into a light-filled interior where walls of windows frame the landscape and create a treehouse-like atmosphere. At the heart of the home, soaring ceilings and a striking atrium anchor the living spaces. Just off the atrium, a massive private office makes an ideal executive workspace. The chef’s kitchen features white oak cabinetry, Dacor appliances, and a 36-inch range, designed for both entertaining and everyday living. The main-level primary suite is designed as a sanctuary, featuring his-and-hers bathrooms/closets plus a private outdoor shower framed in Brazilian hardwood. Upstairs are four additional bedrooms, each with its own dedicated bathroom. One serves as a spacious playroom/home gym, while another - set above the garage with its own staircase, wet bar, and sitting area - functions beautifully as a private mother-in-law suite, offering ideal accommodations for long-term guests or family. Every upgrade has been considered - from handmade tilework, plaster fireplace, and European lighting to level-5 smooth drywall, new windows, smart-home EcoBee HVAC with zoned climate control, and laundry on BOTH levels. Outdoor living has been completely reimagined. The pool was freshly plastered and expanded with a large baja ledge, the expansive pool deck was rebuilt, and the backyard redesigned with brand-new turf, fencing, an outdoor kitchen, custom garage doors, a new metal roof, professional crawlspace waterproofing, and lush landscaping. With 5 bedrooms, 5.5 bathrooms, a showcase office, this home offers a rare combination of scale, high-end finishes, and natural surroundings - just minutes from downtown Austin.
