Welcome to The Jewel of Mount Larson, a one-of-a-kind architectural sanctuary perched above Bee Creek Canyon in the heart of Westlake Hills (78746). Set on nearly 1.5 acres of pristine hilltop terrain, this reimagined mid-century modern retreat offers sweeping panoramic views that reach all the way to Lake Austin, delivering an immersive connection to nature rarely found this close to downtown Austin. Originally built in 1993 by Acorn Deck Co. , the home was transformed in 2020 by the visionary team at DK Studio and LBR Homes. The result is a timeless fusion of mid-century inspiration and contemporary elegance—think Frank Lloyd Wright meets AD Stenger—where natural wood, stone, linen Silestone, and Brazilian blue quartzite contrast beautifully with soft stucco and neutral hues. From the artisan-designed gated entry to the expansive architectural windows, every detail evokes warmth, light, and privacy. The 1,200 square feet of outdoor lounge areas, resurfaced pool, and lush tropical setting create a private resort-like ambiance—ideal for entertaining or quiet reflection. The main home offers three bedrooms and three-and-a-half bathrooms, anchored by a serene primary suite with tranquil canyon and treetop views. A detached flex space with a full bath opens the door for a guest house, studio, or wellness retreat. Located within the prestigious Eanes ISD and featured on the Austin Modern Home Tour, this residence is a rare convergence of thoughtful architecture, timeless design, and unparalleled privacy. Whether you're an architecture enthusiast, a nature lover, or simply seeking an extraordinary lifestyle in one of Austin’s most coveted neighborhoods, The Jewel of Mount Larson is more than a home—it’s a legacy waiting to be embraced.
