Locally acknowledged as having the best curb appeal in coveted Barton Creek West, this Texas traditional home--with its expansive double limestone porches, charming custom shutters, and sprawling oaks that grace the .45 acre lawn—is straight off the cover of Southern Living magazine. This 5-bedroom, 3.5-bath house was professionally designed and transformed by a professional designer for her own family, so every detail has been thoughtfully planned and executed: from the custom cut Seagrass floor coverings to the Rohl farmhouse sink and Perrin & Rowe fixtures to the corrugated tin potting shed and everything in between.

From the moment you enter the captivating rotunda-style foyer, a tone of gracious elegance is set by the excellence of the finishes and the efficiency of the floor plan. Open and airy formal living and dining spaces with rich oak floors and custom cabinetry flank the entryway, providing instant warmth and welcome for family and friends and leading to the family room where you are surrounded by more character and craftsmanship. The immaculately remodeled kitchen exudes quality and luxury with its pristine white marble countertops, dual butler’s pantries, and stylish built-in bay window breakfast area. Off the kitchen, a remodeled third garage bay has been fantastically transformed into a beautiful laundry and mudroom, complete with porcelain herringbone tile and custom shelves with antique doors. 

Rounding out the lower floor is a truly remarkable owner’s wing. Not only does it boast a spacious bedroom, it also offers a spacious study separated by gorgeous French doors and a strikingly refaced marble fireplace. In addition, the primary bath was completely reconfigured and beautifully finished with white marble countertops, polished nickel plumbing fixtures, limestone floor, rebuilt frameless shower, and walk-in his and her closets. Upstairs, four symmetrical bedrooms with remodeled Jack-and-Jill bathrooms are divided by a large playroom at the top of the stairs. All four bedrooms feel as though they are perched in the treetops because their large windows let in an enormous amount of light, making them impeccably designed spaces for kids or guests. 

Outside, the spacious outdoor living space and the covered terraces provide multiple configurations for living, dining, and entertaining, all while overlooking the expansive flat lawn bordering greenbelt. This special home, within walking distance of nationally recognized Eanes ISD elementary and middle schools, is truly the ideal place to live and raise a family. With two community pools, hundreds of acres of private community-maintained nature preserve and trails, and seasonal neighborhood events like the annual Circleview Halloween parade, families will enjoy this charming home for generations to come.
