Nestled in the heart of Zilker Park, this exceptional mid-century modern home is a testament to the timeless design of renowned designer / builder AD Stenger, enhanced by the visionary touch of architect MJ Neal in 2009 and further elevated in 2016. This property seamlessly blends mid-century charm with modern sophistication. Originally built in 1950, this home retains the original lines and low profile exterior and features signature AD Stenger clerestory windows and stone fireplace. In 2009, MJ Neal remodeled the entire home with a modern twist. The project featured an open gourmet kitchen with soapstone counters and Viking appliances, custom maple cabinetry and paneling to compliment the pine floors, walls of glass opening to a central atrium, updated baths including a primary glass shower overlooking a private side atrium and a massive central skylight that floods the interior with natural light. In 2016, the award winning "transformer room" was created to connect the interior to the exterior via architectural walls featuring a modern drawbridge and custom glass corner that hinges open to the neighborhood. Don't miss the opportunity to own a piece of Austin's architectural history with this meticulously updated mid-century masterpiece.
