Nestled in the prestigious Balcones Park neighborhood, this stunning mid-century modern home stands as a testament to architectural history and contemporary luxury. Designed in 1958 by W.R. Coleman, a disciple of California's renowned builders Cliff May and Joseph Eichler, the residence exudes the timeless charm of mid-century modern design. Gently sloping roofs, walls of glass, vaulted ceilings adorned with exposed wood beams and mahogany paneling"”all these features define the classic mid-century modern aesthetic. Meticulously updated by Laura Roberts Design, the interior boasts white oak flooring, Taj Majal quartzite counters and high-end stainless steel appliances seamlessly blending modern convenience with vintage character. The main living, dining, and office areas offer expansive spaces, illuminated by floor-to-ceiling windows that frame breathtaking views of Lake Austin and the landscaped yard below, bathing the interiors in natural light. The gourmet kitchen is a chef's dream with a moveable island, Sub Zero refrigerator, and Wolf gas cooktop, perfect for culinary excellence and entertaining. The bedrooms are equally impressive: a lower level primary bedroom or guest suite with a private entry, and an upstairs owner's retreat featuring a spacious living area, office space, a bedroom with a spa-like bath, and a sky deck offering sweeping city views. Outside, the half-acre lot is a lush oasis, landscaped by Raise Design to complement the natural topography with heritage oaks, terraced metal planters filled with native flora, and ample space for a future pool installation. Additional amenities include parking for two cars on Monte Vista, a two-car carport with storage closets that could easily convert to a garage, and a wine storage or game room off the side yard. Perfectly positioned to combine privacy with proximity to downtown Austin, this residence offers an unparalleled blend of historic architecture and contemporary luxury living.
