Clean lines, soft curves, and honest materials—limestone, maple, glass, and steel—define the architecture, while floor-to-ceiling windows capture treetop vistas and rare skyline views of downtown Austin. The main living area is anchored by a striking curved fireplace and opens seamlessly into the dining space, all framed by dramatic windows and clerestories that fill the interior with natural light.

The kitchen is streamlined yet functional, featuring maple cabinetry, granite countertops, a center island with seating, and a full suite of professional-grade appliances. Adjacent flexible-use rooms adapt easily to breakfast seating, a second office, or casual living. A finished, climate-controlled lower level offers exceptional versatility—perfect for a creative studio, gym, or media space. Outdoor terraces, balconies, and a canopy of mature oaks create a sense of privacy and connection to nature throughout the home. Located just minutes from downtown Austin, Lake Austin, and top-rated Eanes ISD schools, this property represents a rare opportunity to live in a space where architecture is both expressive and deeply livable.
