Tucked behind a private gated entrance, this architectural gem rests amid lush, leafy grounds, offering rare seclusion in the heart of vibrant East Austin. Envisioned by renowned Austin architect Francois Levy, whose work has been celebrated in Dwell and featured on HGTV, the residence is a one-of-a-kind urban sanctuary that seamlessly blends indoor sophistication with outdoor serenity. Completed in 2015, this two-bedroom, two-bath resort-style home is centered around a stunning heated pool, creating a private oasis for relaxation and entertaining. A unique, dual-sided, oversized, 2-car garage effortlessly transforms into a cabana-style lounge, perfect for effortless al fresco living. Sustainability and design are closely intertwined here, with native landscaping, spray foam insulation, a long-lasting metal roof, and a thoughtful floor plan. Light-filled interiors, an expansive balcony, and a private courtyard designed for gatherings under the stars showcase the best of Austin’s modern architectural spirit. With its distinctive layout, refined finishes, and seamless integration of nature and design, this residence is more than a home — it is a contemporary statement piece destined to leave a lasting impression. Pool built in September 2022.
