Nestled on peaceful Queenswood Drive in South Austin's coveted Castlewood Forest neighborhood, this one-of-a-kind single-story ranch home blends original mid-century architecture with elevated modern craftsmanship. Recently featured in HBO's Love & Death, the property offers a rare opportunity to lease a design-forward home on one of South Austin's most iconic streets. Inside, the open-concept combined living, dining, and kitchen area is anchored by a custom-crafted 12-foot white oak island and surrounded by site-built Scandinavian cabinetry with soft-close hardware and hand-stained interiors. A sculptural central fireplace and vaulted ceilings frame the space, while a flawless level 5 drywall finish and flush-trimmed, solid-core doors create a gallery-like aesthetic throughout. Wide-plank European oak floors in a herringbone pattern span the entire home, providing warmth, movement, and a seamless visual connection between spaces. Custom-milled poplar trim details, thoughtful lighting, and curated materials elevate every surface. The Fisher & Paykel French door refrigerator with integrated design, variable temperature zones, and soft-close drawers combines commercial-grade performance with a minimalist aesthetic. The primary suite features a spa-style walk-in shower with a curved glass enclosure, hand-applied plaster walls, a ceiling-mounted rain head, full bench, and full-length wall niche. The guest bath includes a floating double vanity and designer tile work the same tile featured in Austin's Hotel Saint Cecilia. Custom closet systems maximize storage in each room, and the walk-in pantry and laundry room include built-in cabinetry, a utility sink, and concealed shelving. The mudroom with built-in pantry and high-capacity 2023 Samsung washer and dryer is paired with a fully finished two-car garage featuring a sleek epoxy floor perfect for clean storage, home workouts, or a creative workspace. Set on over one-third of an acre, the backyard offers privacy and ample space to entertain with clean hardscape borders, while the front yard offers a classic mid-century style courtyard entry.
