About This Home

As of February 2026

Experience modern living at its finest in this architectural masterpiece. Perched on a private hilltop in the heart of East Austin, this home is a rare architectural retreat just blocks from the energy of East Austin’s most beloved restaurants, coffee shops, and nightlife—yet quietly tucked away above it all. Designed by AIA award-winning Alterstudio Architecture and paired with landscape design by acclaimed Mark Word, this single-story modern residence is a refined study in light, materials, and effortless indoor-outdoor living. Large windows bring the outdoors in, filling the open-concept interior with natural light. Polished concrete floors in the common living areas, warm white oak floors in the bedrooms, and sleek Silestone countertops create a clean, elevated aesthetic that feels both gallery-inspired and livable. Every detail is intentional. Every line, purposeful. Step outside to the expansive screened-in patio—your year-round extension of living space—ideal for hosting friends before heading to dinner at Suerte, grabbing cocktails at Whisler’s, or brunching at Launderette. Walk to coffee at Figure 8 Coffee Purveyors or explore nearby green space at Boggy Creek Greenbelt. Downtown Austin is just minutes away. The private, landscaped lot enhances the sense of calm—an unexpected sanctuary in one of Austin’s most dynamic neighborhoods. Property Highlights:
• Single Story home
• 3 Bedrooms | 2 Full Bathrooms
• Designed by Alterstudio Architecture
• Landscape design by Mark Word
• Silestone countertops
• Polished concrete + white oak floors
