Compass Curated Magazine - Spring / Summer 2026
Pages 94-95 - The Lantern, Austin TX
“Keenan Group. Curated Homes. Elevated Lifestyles.”
Compass Curated is the brokerage's national luxury edition - the magazine that goes out to Compass's most discerning clients, agents, and partners across the country. In the Spring/Summer 2026 issue, one Austin team appears in it: the Keenan Group.
On pages 94 and 95, in the Texas section, the feature opens on The Lantern at 3802 Balcones Drive, under the line that has come to define our listing work - *Keenan Group. Curated Homes. Elevated Lifestyles.*
The Lantern, on the national stage
The Lantern is a 7,765 square foot residence - 6 bedrooms, 6 full and 2 half baths - presented at $9,999,000. Its signature is the tower at the center of the elevation: white brick, a single oval window, and the glow that gives the house its name when the interior light spills out at dusk. The magazine ran it exactly as it deserves to be seen - the rear elevation at twilight, the pool catching the last of the light.
It is the kind of home that earns a place in a national edition: architecturally specific, beautifully built, and presented with the care that the property warrants. You can walk the full home on the The Lantern showcase.
Why a national magazine matters for an Austin seller
Compass has been named the #1 brokerage in the United States for five consecutive years, and Curated is now in its 12th issue. A national edition puts an Austin home in front of buyers, agents, and tastemakers far beyond the local MLS - the audience that moves at the top of the market.
For a seller, that reach is the entire point. The marketing that earns a placement like this is the same marketing behind every Keenan Group listing: professional architectural photography, a clear narrative for the property, and the Compass network used deliberately. Being the only Austin team in the edition is not a vanity line - it is evidence of how we position luxury homes, and who sees them.
