An elegant reimagining of a classic mid-century home on a rare half-acre-plus lot in exclusive Rollingwood, just minutes from downtown and the excitement of urban Austin. Located on a quiet, tree-filled cul-de-sac, this home was remodeled down to studs by the renowned local architect Hugh Randolph to create a contemporary residence that rivals the sophistication of a downtown condo. A wall of walnut cabinetry accents the living room and is complemented by a burnished Venetian plaster hearth and bench. Fresh white walls set off the French oak floors and reflect the light streaming in from an oversized living room window. The gourmet kitchen is outfitted with creamy Calcutta marble, leathered granite and a gorgeous Blue Star range, it also looks out past the dining room to the lush lawn beyond through another set of floor-to-ceiling windows. Dinner parties will never run dry with access to over 1200 bottles of wine in the temperature-controlled wine room.

 

The primary suite is a treetop aerie, located on the second floor for quiet and privacy. The peaceful bedroom features corner windows that look out over the trees and fill the room with dappled light. A striking, skylit bath enjoys a double shower and soaking tub. Worthy of a magazine, the chandelier-lit closet is outfitted with bespoke cabinetry that stores all your treasures with style. A bonus room off the bedroom can be used as a home gym, nursery or second study. Three additional bedrooms on the main floor offer plenty of space for family and friends, one can easily be used as additional living space for maximum flexibility.

 

The remarkable half-acre-plus lot is flat and gorgeously landscaped to provide multiple spaces to relax, entertain and play. Just outside the living room window, a sparkling pool is surrounded by a deck that offers a place to sun next to the water. The adjacent covered dining pavilion includes a summer kitchen for grilling up an alfresco dinner. The vast, tree-shaded lawn features an elaborate playscape, oversized custom fire pit, chicken coop and large raised-bed garden so everyone in the family can indulge a hobby. This exceptional home offers the peace and quiet of a tree-filled neighborhood with all the sophistication and convenience of downtown Austin.
