Positioned on a quiet cul-de-sac street in coveted Highland Park, this beautifully designed contemporary home offers the rare combination of newer construction, timeless finishes, and an exceptional Central Austin location. Built in 2015 on a sprawling quarter-acre lot and zoned to highly sought-after Highland Park Elementary, this four-bedroom, three-bath residence blends everyday functionality with refined style in one of Austin's most desirable neighborhoods. A grand foyer creates an inviting first impression, leading into light-filled living spaces where soft white walls, warm wood tones, natural greens, and classic plantation shutters create an atmosphere that feels both sophisticated and welcoming. The thoughtful floor plan offers a spacious primary suite on the main level, while the fourth bedroom, tucked behind elegant French doors, provides the ideal space for a private home office, guest suite, or flex room. Designed for the way people live today, there's a generous laundry and mudroom that keep daily life organized and a second living area upstairs creates the perfect retreat for movie nights, a playroom, or a quiet workspace. Step outside to discover one of the property's standout features: an oversized covered patio with outdoor kitchen overlooking an expansive backyard shaded by mature trees and surrounded by lush landscaping. Whether you're hosting friends, enjoying relaxed mornings with coffee, or simply appreciating the vibe that a lush quarter-acre lot provides, this outdoor space is a true extension of the home. Located in the heart of 78731, this home offers quick access to Downtown Austin, The Domain, Mopac, and many of Central Austin's favorite restaurants, coffee shops, parks, and trails. Yamas, Russell's, Fonda San Miguel, The Grove, and so much more is within blocks.
