Sleek Contemporary Townhome in Classic Downtown Neighborhood

Embrace the unique juxtaposition of classic and cutting-edge Austin; a sleek, contemporary townhome nestled in an authentic Austin neighborhood surrounded by original homes, long-time neighbors, and century-old pecan trees. One of a collection of just four townhomes on a tree-lined, quiet street, this property allows you to enjoy the best of the city. Walking distance to the University of Texas, Cherrywood Coffeehouse, and amazing restaurants on Manor, such as award-winning Este, Birdie’s, and Patrizi’s, you will be in the heart of everything. The Red Line stop is also just a mile away if you’d like to transit downtown to enjoy more city life.

Indoor-Outdoor Living with Architectural Interest

When you’re done exploring, a skylit entry gallery welcomes you into your retreat; the sightline leads your eye straight through the house to a wall of windows overlooking a lush, bamboo-screened backdrop. An oversized Ipe deck extends the living space both visually and practically, allowing you to enjoy being surrounded by nature, whether inside or out. A smartly laid-out kitchen offers plenty of space for both cooking and gathering, and it seamlessly flows into the living room. Striking architectural elements set this home apart from the ordinary, from the cantilevered second floor that reveals a second-story window to the unexpectedly light-filled niche in the living room. Polished concrete floors on the main level and museum-white walls allow the architecture to shine while providing a clean backdrop for your art collection. Adding an organic element, Brazilian cherry accents are found throughout the main floor, then continue up the stairs to warm the second-floor bedrooms.

Light-Soaked Bedrooms with Designer En-Suite Baths

Overlooking the entry gallery and living room, a second-story catwalk connects two en-suite bedrooms. The primary bedroom has large windows and a charming bath with designer wall coverings, light fixtures, and tiles. Clerestory windows light both the bath and the walk-in closet. The guest bedroom includes a balcony with views of the creek and greenery below. Additional features include a single-car garage with laundry, a gravel side yard or dog run, and steel planters with lighting on the deck. Experience the best of Austin in this modern pied-à-terre in the heart of the city.
