Tucked into one of Zilker's quietest pockets, a large, original, Mid-Century Modern home with such a location and views rarely comes available. The main house offers four bedrooms and two baths, an office and a refinished garage with AC. That is complemented by a large apartment for in-laws, guests, or entertaining. The recent renovation meticulously honors the home's mid-century heritage while adding modern conveniences. All Bathrooms are redone with natural stone counters and new hardware, while keeping the original style. Recessed lighting and smooth, modern walls greet you in every room. The original kitchen layout with a unique curved counter was kept and upgraded to Taj Mahal quartzite. The backsplash is heath tile. The new induction range has powerful roof-drawn silent venting. The vaulted kitchen and living area with polished original terrazzo flooring has a floor-to-ceiling glass sliding wall that opens directly to the pool for indoor-outdoor living.

And the outdoor living is spectacular. The original 8’ deep pool is redone in PebbleTec with new coping, decking and lighting. The backyard and massive ipe deck offer views into Barton Springs and Zilker Park with sunsets over West Lake Hills. During ACL you can watch the second main stage from your deck chair. It’s a 5-minute stroll down to the park, springs, and trails.

At $1,048/sqft, this home is priced 167% above the Austin active market average of $393/sqft, reflecting premium positioning, typically tied to finishes, lot, location, or view. View Austin market report →
