606 Terrell Hill Dr, Austin, TX 78704

This ultra-cool home is located in one of the most unique and desirable neighborhoods south of the river. Just a block from South First, you can roll out of bed and grab coffee at Summer Moon just down the street then take a stroll to one of two community parks within blocks. The unique, independent restaurants and shops of South Congress are also within walking distance, and Zilker Park and downtown can be reached by a quick bike ride. When wanderlust hits, the airport is just 12 minutes away. While you will love exploring your neighborhood, this remarkable property is designed to allow you to retreat from the world once at home. Uniquely envisioned by the original owners for privacy and style, the main house is fronted with a separate garage that shields the residence from the street. A covered breezeway opens up to a charming oak-shaded courtyard, creating a secret garden for the home sited at the back. Floor-to-ceiling windows in the living room open to your own private oasis, creating a seamless indoor/outdoor living space within the completely fenced yard. The gourmet kitchen looks past the living room to the courtyard as well and enjoys a large island, commercial-grade appliances and abundant storage. A separate bonus room behind the kitchen offers flexibility as a dining room, office or playroom. Finishes throughout were selected by the artist/homeowners including designer wallpaper, tile and light fixtures, plus steel railings and other artisan touches. Bedrooms lie upstairs, including the serene primary suite with lush views and its own terrace overlooking the courtyard. The bath features a soaking tub, large shower and clerestory windows that fill the space with light. His and hers closets with custom fittings complete the suite. The upper level also includes three additional bedrooms, one en-suite, each with a sunny, treetop view.
