ELEGANT MINIMALIST MODERN IN TRAVIS HEIGHTS Located on a premier hillside street in Travis Heights, this modern home at 1503 Alta Vista offers superior craftsmanship and thoughtfully designed spaces, including a finished third floor with panoramic downtown skyline views. Clean design and a palette of beautiful natural materials come together in this woodsy home dropped from the pages of Dwell magazine. Custom millwork with generous storage, luxurious quartzite and quartz countertops, and recessed lighting run throughout the open, yet clearly defined kitchen, living, and dining spaces. The primary suite features a large master bath with soaking tub, walk-in shower, and generous walk-in closet. The laundry is conveniently located on the second floor along with two ensuite bedrooms, each with a large closet and bathroom. The third floor flex space can accommodate a fourth bedroom, office, and/or social space to take in the truly spectacular views of the downtown Austin skyline and west Austin hills. Designed by Cotera + Reed Architects, with 30+ years of architectural design experience in Austin and developed by Alta Design Partners, the home is notable for its quality of construction with steel beam reinforcing and rock solid framing, quality of materials with Marvin windows, solid wood doors, Forest Stewardship Certified (FSC) wood, handmade tile, and more. The property is located on one of the prettiest streets in the neighborhood, lined with grand heritage live oaks, classic cottages, and newer moderns. Coveted alley access provides easy parking and entry, and the charming backyard has room for a small pool. A stroll away from South Congress shopping and entertainment district, the hike and bike trail, and a mere minutes drive to downtown, Rainey, and the East Side, scoop up this rare quality new construction with the perfect layout and location for vibrant Austin living.
