4 bed / 3 bath mid-century modern home in Barton Hills on a corner, tree-lined lot in 78704. Approximately 1,850 square feet, featuring a detached guest suite, multiple work-from-home spaces, and an extensively landscaped hillside backyard designed for outdoor living and play. Available after June 20. Pets and furnishings negotiable.
The home features original architectural character, large windows with abundant natural light, open living spaces, custom built-in bookshelves, and a large front-facing window seat overlooking the treed front yard. The layout blends classic mid-century design with practical everyday living.
The master bedroom overlooks the wooded backyard and includes direct access to the back patio. Storage is abundant, with a walk-in closet in addition to two full-size closets. Two additional bedrooms provide generous natural light and storage. All bedrooms with new hardwood floors. A detached fourth bedroom offers flexible space for guests, office use, or a studio setup, with a separate entrance, queen-size Murphy bed, and a full bathroom featuring a tin ceiling detail. Recently refinished with new floors, paint and fixtures.
Newly renovated bathrooms feature updated tile work, modern fixtures, clean contemporary finishes, and thoughtful details that complement the home's original mid-century style.
There are two separate living spaces. The front living area doubles as a built-in work-from-home space with an Uplift standing desk, two adjustable-height kids' desks, and coordinated shelving. The adjacent window seat provides a comfortable reading or work space with views of the front yard. The second living area opens to the kitchen and back patio, with large windows overlooking the hillside, mature trees, and active songbirds.
The efficient kitchen layout connects directly to the outdoor dining and patio spaces, making the home well suited for hosting and everyday indoor-outdoor living.
The backyard is one of the property's defining features, with tree-level outdoor dining beneath mature cedar elms, a landscaped hillside with native plants, and multiple spaces designed for recreation and gathering. Outdoor additions include a full-size culvert slide, flat play space with installed soccer netting, basketball court, batting cage, ninja line, elaborate tree net integrated into the hillside, two fountains, raised gardening beds, fruit trees, and a fire pit. Seasonal mountain laurels, wildflowers, flame acanthus, and pride of barbados create changing color throughout the spring and summer.
Parking includes 2-car carport, driveway and street parking, along with a 40 Amp Tesla charger. Stacked washer and dryer are housed in the covered carport area. New windows and appliances within the last 2 years.
Located within walking and biking distance of South Lamar restaurants and coffee shops including Matt's El Rancho, Papalote, Torchy's Tacos, Kerbey Lane, Amy's and Phils, Tacodeli, Easy Tiger, and other neighborhood favorites.
