This prime Zilker mini compound celebrates Austin with bold design, high-end materials, and a dedication to the very best green building techniques. Positioned on an elevated flat lot with downtown views, the property features a dramatic 2-story main house, an infinity pool with hot tub, a 1-bedroom apartment with private entrance (STRs welcome), a sauna, and the ultimate office structure (with its own bathroom and kitchen) all designed with an authentic Austin flavor and walking distance to some of Austin’s best restaurants. The kitchen is enhanced by an entire wall of glass with direct access to the expansive decks, lawn, and pool. The dining area flows from the kitchen and is large enough to be used as additional living space. A powder room is thoughtfully tucked away on this level. The main living room is truly astonishing with its wall of double-height floor-to-ceiling steel and glass windows that maximize the downtown views and natural light. A cozy elevated den, just off the main living room is a favorite reading nook.
