A sophisticated Architectural statement--Don't miss this opportunity for close-in LAKE AUSIN ACCESS! Clean, crisp & modern, this property is truly spectacular, originally designed & built by NYC Architect for himself. Current owner has further customized w/ architect Mark Carlson AIA. Commercial style custom steel windows & doors, floor to ceiling glass, exposed steel beams & custom fabricated steel floating staircase make dramatic architectural statement, along w/ are cently incorporated pneumatic two-person elevator. Quarter sawn planks white oak flooring, what appears to be a floating masonry fireplace, custom lighting comprised of vintage NYC subway lights & bathroom fixtures displaced from George Gershwin's former NYC residence add character & interest. Kitchen was remodeled in 2021 with Miele dishwasher, freezer, refrigerator, cooktop, wine cooler, microwave, small plate warming drawer, large warming drawer, built-in coffee maker & double ovens. Wide open design offers amazing entertaining spaces and museum quality options for art presentation. The addition of a second study, projector AV system, custom automated blinds, well-appointed outdoor cooking center, expanded roof top deck, and steel staircase to the newly created yard and patio made a tremendous impact on the functionality of the living & entertaining spaces. Finally, the rework of the primary bath perfected the primary suite & use of space. Surrounded on two sides by green space allows lush, green foliage to be visible from throughout the home. Property has 2 deeded kayak lockers to make launching your kayak or paddle board easy & convenient & the amenities of this private gated community include Lake Austin water front access, day dock, common area pool & pickle ball/sport court. 12 minutes to CBD, this close-in location has low property tax rate of 1.62 incl Eanes ISD! Great alternative to downtown condo. Seller has active Texas Real Estate Brokers License.

PUD
Planned Unit Development District
Planned unit development (PUD) district is the designation for a large or complex single or multi-use development that is planned as a single contiguous project and that is under unified control. The purpose of a PUD district designation is to preserve the natural environment, encourage high quality development and innovative design, and ensure adequate public facilities and services for development within a PUD. A PUD district designation provides greater design flexibility by permitting modifications of site development regulations. Development under the site development regulations applicable to a PUD must be superior to the development that would occur under conventional zoning and subdivision regulations. A PUD district must include at least 10 acres of land, unless the property is characterized by special circumstances, including unique topographic constraints.
