On a tree-lined, quiet street in one of Austin's most desired locations, walking distance to the highly rated Casis Elementary School and minutes from the energy and bustle of City Center, this mid-century inspired home rises from the street on a site that affords a treetop view to the hill country beyond. Outdoor gathering areas for groups or quiet solitary retreats are shaded by mature oaks that cover the property. The large welcoming swimming pool provides space for quality family time and entertaining friends. Dry-stacked stone retaining walls create long, horizontal tiers of landscaping and the wide eaves of the home's architecture echo the linear theme. The pool and deck are rendered private with glass panels all of which evoke influences of Frank Lloyd Wright giving this home a modern feel with design roots in the past. Huge expanses of glass bring light and trees into every room. A large living area with a fireplace in the back spills down three steps into another one with white-washed beaded ceilings that looks out over the pool, allowing for friends and family to congregate or separate during celebrations large or small. Sleek, clean lines of cherry cabinetry in the kitchen under crisp white counters overlook an informal dining area with floor to ceiling windows and wooded surroundings. Working from home means quality time spent in a tree-top setting looking out of corner windows with a line of warm cherry cabinets for storage or display. All bedrooms have attendant baths and three look out onto the pool and deck area. The primary bedroom can be opened to a view that is both private and spectacular. And the bath has a large modern glass shower and mirror fronted built-in storage that eliminates the need for furniture to clutter up the wide and light bedroom space. Ample storage throughout the house has been well-planned to make living easy. Contemporary metal railings composite decking materials and natural landscaping make this a low-maintenance offering in a lovely, creative setting. Organically nestled in and above the trees, this brilliant, light design invites the warm reception of entertaining guests and provides nature-filled spaces for peaceful respite. But when action is desired, Lake Austin and downtown Austin are minutes away. The perfect setting.
