Der Visionär

For more information: [hidden information]

The Visionary was created for the way Austin is meant to be lived, open to the outdoors, surrounded by green space, and close to the center of the city. Set on nearly an acre just off Mount Bonnell, the home overlooks Brightleaf Preserve while remaining minutes from downtown, Lake Austin, and the city’s best dining, shopping, and entertainment.

The interiors are warm, modern, and beautifully layered. Wood ceilings, hardwood floors, exposed brick, oak cabinetry, richly veined quartzite, and expansive windows give the home a distinctive architectural presence while keeping the surrounding landscape in view.

The main level was created for both everyday living and entertaining. The quartzite-clad kitchen features oak cabinetry and Thermador appliances, complemented by generous living spaces and a four-seasons room enclosed by sliding doors. A fully equipped bar includes counter seating, double Zephyr wine refrigerators, a beverage refrigerator, ice maker, Bosch dishwasher, and sink. Whether hosting an intimate dinner or a large gathering, the home makes entertaining feel effortless.

The primary suite features expansive windows, an exposed brick wall, and direct access to the pool and spa. The bathroom includes an oversized shower overlooking a private courtyard, an expansive walk-in closet, and access to a private outdoor shower. An oversized laundry room, mudroom, and pantry add substantial storage and functionality, with a large center island and dedicated dog wash in the laundry room.

The lower level offers the flexibility of a second residence, with three bedrooms, three full baths, a kitchenette, a spacious living area, and two offices or flexible rooms with built-ins. One bedroom can serve as a second primary suite, creating an exceptional arrangement for extended stays, multigenerational living, or live-in support.

A separate garage apartment includes a full bath, closet, living area, loft, and vaulted ceiling, providing another private space for guests or use as an office or studio. An elevator connects the home’s levels.

Outdoor living is at the heart of The Visionary. A pool and spa span two levels of the property, accompanied by covered entertaining spaces, a pool bath, and an outdoor shower. A fully turfed lower lawn and private sport court provide substantial space for recreation, entertaining, and time outdoors. The fenced property backs to protected green space, with trails leading toward the Balcones Canyonlands and Brightleaf Preserve. The setting delivers expansive views and a remarkable sense of privacy this close to downtown Austin.

The property also offers ample parking, beginning with a large circular driveway and continuing with additional parking along the side of the home, in front of the two-car garage, and in a dedicated lower parking area. Architectural plans convey for a proposed 1,805-square-foot expansion incorporating an additional garage, private gym, dedicated office, and carport. The proposed garage design includes a car lift, creating exceptional additional space for vehicles, fitness, and work.

A stucco exterior and metal roof create a clean, modern profile. The Tesla solar roof is supported by two Tesla Powerwall battery storage units capable of storing several days’ worth of power during an outage. The property also includes rainwater collection.

Zoned to Highland Park Elementary, Lamar Middle School, and McCallum High School, The Visionary brings together sophisticated design, extraordinary outdoor living, multigenerational flexibility, future expansion potential, and privacy in the heart of Austin.
