Not Your Typical Farmhouse
Skip the black-and-white cliché. This is a warmer, richer, more architectural take — one of the most distinctive homes in 78702, finished to impress on every level.
The main level is an open-concept showpiece: soaring designer light fixtures, an exposed custom brick wall, and polished concrete floors that read more gallery than farmhouse. The kitchen is the anchor — custom white shaker cabinetry, a quartz waterfall island, a custom tile backsplash, and high-end stainless appliances, all wrapped in natural light.
Upstairs, wire-brushed oak hardwood runs through the second and third floors. The second floor holds all three bedrooms — including a tranquil owner's suite with its own dramatic brick accent wall and two guest bedrooms — and two full baths.
The third floor adds flexibility: a large bonus living room that works as a media room, home office, or hangout, opening onto a private rooftop terrace with a view toward downtown Austin. There's also a private in-home gym — no membership, no commute — a fenced yard built for entertaining, and a full-size washer and dryer included.
Offered furnished, with the flexibility to remove some or all furnishings for the right long-term tenant — a versatile home from top to bottom.
A Private Rooftop Terrace
Off the third-floor bonus room, a private terrace opens to a view of the Austin skyline. A bar rail with counter stools lines one side, and a cushioned lounge sits on the other — a comfortable spot for a morning coffee or an evening outside, with string lights for after dark.
