Overview
Description
TIMELESS CHARACTER MEETS DESIGNER SOPHISTICATION! More than a renovation, this exceptional Northwest Austin townhome was thoughtfully reimagined as the personal retreat of a local designer and her children. Every space reflects a creative's eye for detail, blending original architectural character with curated finishes, modern comforts, and a warm, sophisticated aesthetic. The result is a storied home that feels both elevated and inviting.
One of the largest homes in the community, this 1,916-square-foot residence features 3 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, two spacious living areas, and two fireplaces that add warmth and charm. The versatile floor plan offers distinct living spaces, including a separate level with its own bedroom, full bathroom, living area, and private patio - the perfect retreat!
Perhaps most captivating are the breathtaking, unobstructed sunset views from both the largest bedroom and the upper balcony, creating a magical backdrop for peaceful evenings. An updated deck, fenced downstairs patio, and charming gated front garden offer additional spaces to relax and entertain.
Tucked into a quiet, established neighborhood backing to scenic hiking trails and lush greenery, this home offers a sense of privacy and tranquility while remaining minutes from the Arboretum, The Domain, excellent shopping, dining, and highly regarded schools. Enjoy a private community pool just across the street, a spacious two-car garage with extra storage, and convenient access to Loop 360, Highway 183, and MoPac.
A home with a story, a designer's vision, and character all its own. Renovated and completely turnkey, this rare gem offers the perfect blend of thoughtful design, everyday comfort, and effortless living.
