A stunning collaboration between Black & Vernooy Architecture and Craig Parker of Homes by Parker, this luxury Zilker Compound is comprised of the original early 1930s Cottage (2/2) meticulously restored & remodeled, a New-Build Main Home (3/3.5) with gorgeous Douglas Fir beams, a Pool House with a full bath and cathedral steel trusses, plus a heated pool & spa! The main home's kitchen is an entertainer’s dream, featuring an oversized walnut island, Miele appliances, satin brass plumbing fixtures, & quartzite countertops. Cathedral wooden ceilings adorn the living spaces, while a three-panel sliding door connects the interior to an expansive covered porch overlooking the pool & serene backyard. The primary suite is on the main floor, with a standalone tub in front of a leather-finished quartzite wall, an oversized walnut vanity and a marble floor. The upper floor includes two private bedrooms with ensuite baths, an additional living space, and a light-filled sun porch. Surrounded by heritage oaks, the restored cottage connects the property to its original roots. Updates include a new kitchen, refinished original pine shiplap, oak wood flooring, doors & fireplace, stackable washer/dryer closet & all-new HVAC, plumbing, electrical & insulation, plus an added secluded loft+full bathroom. A horizontal cedar fence with steel posts enclose the compound with an automatic sliding carport gate & 3 sliding pedestrian entrances. Additional compound amenities include high-efficiency HVAC zoned systems, Nest thermostats and Lutron smart lighting controls, Ring cameras, four circulating Navian tankless hot water heaters, new engineered reinforced suspension concrete foundations, and a 58 KW Kohler liquid-cooled quiet generator, large enough to power all three buildings. With fastidious attention to detail, this spectacular property offers a unique blend of modern luxury and historic charm with endless privacy, providing the ultimate Austin living experience.
