This one-of-a-kind Zilker mini-compound is the epitome of Austin cool—bold, original, and unapologetically 78704. Tucked behind a gate at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, this vibrant oasis offers front-row access to Austin’s best restaurants, iconic music venues, and outdoor adventures, all while feeling worlds away.

Set on a rare elevated flat lot with showstopping downtown views, the property features a two-story main house, an infinity-edge pool and hot tub, a 1-bedroom guest apartment (STR-friendly with private entry), a barrel sauna, and a fully equipped container casita with its own kitchen and bath—perfect for creative hobbies, work-from-home flexibility, or weekend visitors.

Inside, Austin charm and funky flair shine in every detail—from reclaimed basketball court floors to a custom mural by local artist Avery Orendorf. Expansive steel-and-glass walls blur the line between indoors and out, connecting open-concept living spaces to lush gardens, layered decks, and skyline views. It’s always patio season here.

The kitchen is a standout with terrazzo-style concrete floors, bold finishes, and a massive glass wall that opens onto multiple outdoor hangouts. The dining and living rooms are built for entertaining, while a cozy lofted den adds an elevated nook to unwind.

The primary suite features knotty pine ceilings, reclaimed wood floors, and panoramic city views. Down below, the guest apartment and container casita add flexibility, style, and privacy for any lifestyle.

Designed by Adam Reiser of Shelter Austin and built to meet LEED v4 standards, the home boasts ICF construction, 55 solar panels, a whole-house dehumidifier, and dual 2,800-gallon rainwater tanks for irrigation.

Walk to Uchi in 6 minutes, Barton Springs in 8, or catch the sunset over Town Lake. This isn’t just a home—it’s a front-row seat to everything that makes Austin electric.
