A unique compound in the Cuernavaca neighborhood of West Lake Hills, this property offers three structures – a 1723sf main home, a 1000sf guest cottage, and a 1000sf artist studio, on three unrestricted acres. The three buildings are impressive in their own right, but it is the landscape and the panoramic views that make this property stand out. Gradually sloping upward, the land extends beyond the artist studio. Large oaks and cedar trees meander through the property brimming with wildlife, and the flower beds filled with native plants attract a variety of birds, bees, and butterflies.
The are two dwellings and a studio – the main home at the front of the property was moved there from a south Austin neighborhood in the mid 1970s. It has been remodeled and expanded over a 10-year period and has Spanish tile and oak flooring throughout. The deck opens out to a large fenced area–ideal for pets. Two rock patios flank the front the property surrounded by native plants.
A stone pathway leads past a laundry building to the guest cottage that was hand-built by the original owner in the 1970’s. Currently being used as a photography/printmaking studio, it offers an upstairs bedroom with a full bath, a kitchen area with a sink – and is plumbed to add a full kitchen, and has a fenced yard with a small deck. Near the top of the property is the 1000 sq.ft. light-filled studio – an award winning design by the Renfro and Steinbommer architectural firm. With a soaring beamed ceiling and an expansive covered front porch it offers unobstructed views of the Hill Country. This large open floor plan has a raised office with its own deck and a full bath. It is plumbed and wired for easy conversion to add a kitchen.
This property lies within the acclaimed Eanes School district. Although it feels like you are in the country, you are minutes away from grocery stores, restaurants, and shopping.
