A protected cove in Edwards Mountain, Hill Country and skyline views to the north, east and south, and a Muskin-built traditional that has been cared for from day one: this is the kind of house to hold onto for a long time. The cove is the first thing you notice. A level front yard and a long driveway are rare in the hills and give you room to spread out, and the neighbors on this quiet cul-de-sac look out for one another. The .308-acre lot sits among mature live oaks with morning light in front and afternoon shade in back, and the backyard can go either way: cleared and leveled for more lawn and play space, or kept as it is for privacy, shade and low upkeep. Inside, a two-story entry sets the scale and high ceilings and natural light carry through. Solid hardwood floors were just refinished, and the finishes are the kind that hold up: wool carpet upstairs, cork floors in the dining room, a custom built-in buffet with wine storage, crown molding, plantation shutters and upgraded lighting throughout. The kitchen is anchored by a commercial-grade Wolf gas range and opens to the living areas and the covered porches beyond. The main level flexes. A dedicated office with pocket doors, plus a second space that works as a playroom, music room, library, second living area or a lounge for entertaining. All bedrooms are upstairs. The oversized primary suite has a sitting area, a huge walk-in closet, a bath with an oversized tub facing the hills, and its own private deck with north, east and south views over the hills and the Austin skyline. A recently replaced composite deck and covered porches on both levels handle grilling, dining and quiet evenings. Xeriscaped gardens front and back keep the yard low maintenance. An oversized two-car garage, a laundry room with sink and cabinetry, a main-level powder bath and storage everywhere. Minutes to MoPac, Loop 360, H-E-B, The Domain, The Arboretum and downtown, on a street where homes rarely change hands.
