Eleganza Architettonica A Rollingwood

Set in the heart of Rollingwood, 503 Inwood Road was originally the personal home of interior designer Brooke Wilbratte of Tribe Design Group. Working with architect Kathleen Baldwin, Wilbratte shaped the home with a distinctly personal eye for materials, detail, and everyday living. The interiors went on to win Best in Interior Design at the 2023 Austin Home & Design Awards.

Venetian plaster, European white oak floors, sculptural fluted details, and architectural lighting bring warmth and depth to the interiors, with a material palette that feels refined without feeling precious. Technology largely disappears into the design and ceiling speakers are nearly invisible, while subtle alcove lighting along the staircase becomes an architectural detail of its own. Behind the finishes, extensive insulation and a specialized stucco application were chosen with the same attention to performance, contributing to the home’s energy efficiency.

Beyond its finishes, the home is designed to live with ease, with spaces that can shift between work, gathering, and retreat. A dedicated office provides a quiet place to work, while an additional living space offers flexibility for more casual everyday use. The primary bedroom is its own private retreat, complete with a spacious covered porch, fireplace & two walk-in closets - one designed as a sanctuary. Three bedrooms are located on the 2nd floor with ensuite baths, generous closet space and treetop views.

Privacy is one of the home’s quieter luxuries. Generous space between neighboring properties gives the house an unexpected sense of openness and seclusion, especially rare in the heart of Rollingwood.

Rollingwood has long offered a particular kind of Austin living: tucked just beyond the city’s center, yet remarkably connected to it. The neighborhood’s pool, tennis courts, playing fields, and dog park are steps away, while Zilker Park and many of Austin’s most iconic places are just minutes away. Its dedicated municipal services and police department add to the small-community character that makes Rollingwood distinct.

Can be sold fully furnished, with a collection of Four Hands furnishings thoughtfully selected and customized for the home by its owners.
