Property Description

Perched above Zilker Park tree top views of the Austin skyline, this is a rare opportunity to own a home in one of the city's most coveted locations. Enjoy the best of Austin with easy access to the Rowing Dock, Lady Bird Lake, Zilker Park, Barton Springs, downtown, and South Lamar's dining and entertainment.

Designed to embrace its extraordinary setting, the home is filled with natural light and thoughtfully positioned living spaces. Rich custom wood built-ins throughout provide warmth, character, and enough bookshelf space to delight even the most avid reader.

The spacious kitchen offers abundant storage and workspace, while multiple living areas create flexibility for entertaining or quiet evenings at home. The primary suite is a true retreat, featuring a private balcony with city views, a fireplace, and a private sitting room ideal for a home office, library, or peaceful escape.

The wraparound deck on the main level is a standout feature, overlooking a beautifully landscaped xeriscape yard with a fountain and babbling brook water feature. Whether enjoying morning coffee, entertaining guests, or taking in the downtown lights, the outdoor spaces offer exceptional privacy and tranquility.

Situated in Austin ISD, this home delivers a lifestyle that is difficult to replicate. Elevated above one of Austin's most iconic parks, surrounded by nature yet just minutes from the heart of the city, it offers a unique blend of privacy, character, and convenience. Walk to outdoor adventures, festivals, and waterfront activities, then return home to a setting that feels like a private hillside retreat.

This is more than a home with a view. It is a one-of-a-kind Austin property that captures the spirit of the city while offering a peaceful place to call home. Although this home is move-in ready, it is also ready for someone to elevate it to its next chapter, or scrape it for the lot and build your dream home on this prime location.
