Welcome to this stunning 2021 Perry Home in the heart of Carpenter Hill — where modern design meets everyday comfort.

From the moment you step inside, the thoughtful details make an impression. Eight-foot doors, upgraded fixtures and faucets, and ceiling fans throughout set the tone for a home that has been carefully curated from top to bottom. The open-concept floor plan is bright, airy, and made for both entertaining and everyday living. Large windows flood the living room and kitchen with natural light, while the seamless flow between the living area, dining space, and kitchen makes everything feel connected and effortless. The kitchen itself is a standout — white cabinetry, a large center island, upgraded appliances and countertops, and a generous breakfast bar that's perfect for morning coffee or casual gatherings. Need a dedicated workspace? The private office with French doors and recessed lighting checks that box beautifully. The primary suite is a true retreat, featuring dual vanities, a walk-in shower, and a custom built-in walk-in closet that makes staying organized feel effortless. Step outside and you'll find one of this home's most special features — a covered patio with sweeping views of both Austin and Buda, overlooking a gently sloping backyard. Whether you're hosting, unwinding, or just soaking in the scenery, this outdoor space delivers. All of this, nestled in Carpenter Hill — just minutes from highly-rated schools and Buda's beloved downtown with its locally-owned dining, bars, and entertainment. This one truly has it all.

At $255/sqft, this home is priced 34% above the Buda active market average of $190/sqft, reflecting premium positioning, typically tied to finishes, lot, location, or view. View Austin market report →
