Stratford Hills Architectural Landmark

This contemporary estate is an extraordinary architectural landmark, featured in the prestigious pages of Architectural Digest. Meticulously crafted by the renowned Larry Speck and further enhanced by the award-winning architects Paul Lamb and Ted Young, and with interiors from renowned designer, Elizabeth Stanley, this property is a stunning example of high-concept design. The austere concrete and sleek white pine floors are perfectly juxtaposed by the lofty wood-and-steel roof trusses, creating a modern masterpiece. The dramatic floor-to-ceiling windows offer breathtaking views of the lush hillside and the dazzling lights of Downtown Austin, inviting bursts of natural light to soften and envelop the living spaces. Purposefully neutral tones create a sophisticated gallery-like backdrop for a cherished art collection and striking furnishings. The kitchen is a work of art, featuring dramatic black Venetian plaster walls, a pristine natural stone quartzite island, and a traditional LaCanche range. The primary suite is a magazine-worthy retreat, accessible through a hallway adorned with lichen-speckled tree bark. Arabescato marble and radiant heated cement tiles set off the poured concrete walls in the primary bath, while blackened steel paneling accentuates both the primary bedroom and bathroom. The residence offers seamless indoor-outdoor living with a series of multi-level connecting decks leading to an outdoor fireplace, a pristine pool, and a lush garden and yard. A retreat awaits in the exercise room tucked away at the back of the house, while the media room provides a cozy gathering space. Fully equipped with state of the art surveillance technology and sound system.
