Perched high above the city on one of Austin’s most storied streets, this completely reimagined 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom detached home is a stunning fusion of modern design and soulful charm. Currently set up as a one bedroom with a flex/office space, every inch of this home has been gut-renovated to create a space that is both stylish and inviting, maximizing natural light and capturing the incredible downtown skyline views from nearly every angle. The entry sets the stage—custom stone steps lead to an expansive screened-in porch that runs the length of the home, offering a front-row seat to the city’s beauty. Inside, high ceilings and bespoke steel doors frame the skyline, seamlessly connecting the living room, chef’s kitchen, and primary suite to the outdoors. But the magic doesn’t stop there. A one-of-a-kind “Eagle’s Perch” sits elevated approximately 40 feet above street level at the rear of the property, providing an exclusive patio retreat above the home itself—an ideal spot to unwind with a drink, soak in the views, or entertain under the stars. Thoughtfully designed with high-end finishes, the home features custom millwork, designer lighting, and top-tier Wolf/Subzero appliances. The primary suite boasts a spa-like bath with a soaking tub and wet room, while the secondary bedroom offers an ensuite bath and built-in desk space. With multiple outdoor living areas, space for two cars on-site, and the potential to add a pool, this home is both a serene escape and an entertainer’s dream. A rare find in the heart of Austin, this is city living at its finest.
