Property Description
Situated on a quarter acre in the heart of Zilker, this home and guest house sit on a lot far more generous than the typical Zilker parcel, offering exceptional privacy and space in one of Austin’s most sought-after neighborhoods. Located on a serene street just a short walk to Zilker Elementary, with a convenient commute to Eanes ISD, and moments from South Lamar’s restaurants, Barton Springs Pool, and Zilker Park, this property embodies the best of South Austin living. Designed by FAB Architecture with interiors by Ashley Vaughan and landscape design by Jackson Broussard, the main residence is crafted for both everyday living and entertaining. Expansive Western doors and windows fill the home with natural light and connect seamlessly to the outdoors. The immaculate kitchen features Sub-Zero, Wolf, and Miele appliances. The main home offers four bedrooms, four full bathrooms, two living spaces, an office nook, mud room, and laundry upstairs and down, while the detached two-story guest house offers flexible living space, a full bath, half bath, office, and gym. Out front, a large grassy yard welcomes you home. The backyard is a private retreat with a full-size pool, covered outdoor living area, and charming tree house beneath a mature pecan tree beside an ancient Austin oak. Mature landscaping includes a basalt birdbath, Japanese maples, and Jasmine fencing. The two-car garage features a bike nook and built-in shelving. Additional features include solar panels, whole-home water filtration, a Level 2 EV charger, Control4 automation, two cooling zones in the main home, and modern splits in the guest house. A beloved Halloween destination, the property is a sight to witness each fall. This is a rare opportunity to own one of Zilker’s most distinctive properties.
