Quiet luxury in the heart of 78704 with a location as special as the home itself. This 1940s Bouldin Creek bungalow pairs timeless, old Austin soul with a thoughtful, modern addition - creating an effortless blend of character and convenience. Every detail earns its place. Chic built-ins, curated display nooks, gallery lighting and recessed window ledges converge with skylights and seamless picture windows. Here, the architectural details are a masterful study in design, and provide as the optimal canvas for decor. Ideal for entertaining, the combined dining and sitting room is lined with custom cabinetry and generous enough for a long table or a deep sofa, depending on how you like to gather. In the kitchen, limestone counters, a Wolf gas range, and a full stainless suite sit beneath a vaulted ceiling that pulls in the light. Toward the back, a second living space opens up under a wood-beamed ceiling, with ninety-degree window seating that frames the green of the backyard. Upstairs, the primary suite is genuinely one of a kind - custom storage throughout, and an architectural half-wall that quietly encloses the sleeping area. The ensuite feels like you’re in a treetop canopy, featuring a Juliet balcony, designer lighting and a freestanding clawfoot tub. Outside is the home's great flourish. Sustainably and professionally landscaped, the grounds step down in tiered beds of Texas natives beneath mature trees. Stone walkways wind through lush grasses and shrubs to a pool tucked into the corner of the property - welcome relief through a long Texas summer. A detached casita, with its light-wood ceiling and full bath behind a sliding privacy door, makes an impression on anyone who stays, and can fulfill an array of purpose. All of this sits a block from Auditorium Shores, the Long Center, and some of Austin's finest dining, with downtown five minutes away. Rare seclusion, without giving up a thing.
