Sipping coffee with morning views of the sunrise and savoring peaceful evenings watching the sunset are the gifts of a perfect southern exposure. Nestling against the Canyon Preserve, this condominium on the premier location in the Hillside community feels like it's a world away but the view of Austin's skyline is a reminder that the urban action of the City can be accessed in a moment. Inside, this striking, elegant home unfolds in front of you displaying rooms designed with an artist's eye toward marrying sunlight with texture and finishes. Rich, walnut floors throughout provide a luxurious anchor for light and dreamy spaces that seem to float above the trees with bright, sunny views through large windows that go on forever. Its environs provide an intimate retreat from busy days or a base for large or small scale entertaining. Ivory and white stone and glass backsplashes marry light, modern, maple cabinetry to black granite counters. Thermador appliances are an ideal site for creating gastronomic wonders or rolling out favorite take-out finds. A full butler's pantry hosts the supporting cast of serveware, linens and smaller appliances at the ready should the guest list grow. It's also home to a wine refrigerator, cabinets and plenty of drawers. Views of verdant forested hillsides abound from windows that surround the dining and living. As a designated preserve, these neighboring trees will provide the tranquility of nature to be experienced inside and outside on a magnificent patio. A very modern fireplace of polished stone sits in a corner to be enjoyed without obstructing the dramatic vistas. Up the gleaming walnut stairway another large beautiful living area can play host to a huge TV or provide a quiet intervals between bedrooms upstairs. The panoramic views are even more dramatic from here. The master bathroom has separate vanities with Restoration Hardware silver mirrors separated by a deep, jetted soaking tub with a massive window where a relaxing bath can be enhanced by views of hillsides, trees and the City. A large glass shower and separate dressing table provide a beautiful and easy setting while getting ready for the day. The closet is masterfully designed with abundant shelving and hanging space. There is so much more...a secondary bedroom has its own balcony and view. There is a wide, tech closet set up and wired for office equipment. There is ample storage in the 2 car garage as well as room for a second refrigerator. There is extra parking when needed. The laundry room includes a utility sink. Window coverings and light fixtures are carefully selected and placed to augment the artistic perfection of each room. But the first thing you see upon entering the home is what will stick with you. An idyllic space enveloped by unalterably green and fantastically sweeping views. Gleaming surfaces wed organic materials resulting in a home that is a work of art. This home does not and never will feel like a condominium, but with no maintenance, there's more time to relish the luxury of living high above and away from it all.
