IFyou
have been patiently waiting for the ideal home to come on
the market, your search may be over. Located in the
venerable neighborhood of Lost Creek, the address is 6628
Whitemarsh Valley
Walk, Austin, TX 78746. The home has four bedrooms, four
baths, five living areas and about 5,000 square feet (per
the seller).
A $245,000 Price
Reduction
Not only is the setting and architecture beautiful
here&emdash;but also the seller has decided to get very
serious about the price. The home was $995,000&emdash;now
$750,000. The owner says the home is the "The lowest
price-per-foot in the neighborhood".
The residence was designed by the city's best-known architect, Luis Jauregui. All you have to do is glance at the photos above to appreciate Jauregui's trademark use of soft curving lines that give his designs so much appeal.
Extras Like A
First-Floor Guest Room And A Light-filled Studio Off
Master
The overall design includes an appealing layout. For
example, there is a first-floor guest room, and full bath in
case you have older relatives who will visit but cannot
climb stairs. The master, and two large additional bedrooms
are upstairs. And here is something you have not seen
anywhere else. You will see a set of French doors when you
walk into the master bedroom. Open them and
behold&emdash;you walk into a huge, light-filled studio that
can be used for an exercise/yoga space, but it's also big
enough to accommodate a quiet office.
There is another "extra" space on the first floor&emdash;a large activities room where kids can roughhouse, play video games or watch movies.
Unique Land Yields
Total Privacy
The house itself is a gem, but it's the 1.4 acre setting
that elevates the residence to one-of-a-kind status. From
the street all you see is a driveway that disappears behind
a thicket of trees. The home
feels like it is hidden away in a scenic valley. There are
songbirds and squirrels in the trees and cute deer routinely
stroll the grounds. On pleasant weekends, you can start
mornings out on the terrace with fresh coffee and your iPad.
Imagine having a beautiful spot for al fresco lunch. Later
you can curl up in a hammock, read a book or write a letter
to a friend.
Other outdoor improvements include a firepit, garden shed and if you like to stay in shape, you will love the sport court for playing basketball and paddle tennis. Add some lights in the trees, play festive music, and you can use the sport court for a big party while you dance under the stars. You can also walk straight from the back yard on to the hike and bike trails.
Recent Improvements
Except One
There is only one possible catch to this transaction. The
owner has upgraded the terrace areas, added wood floors in
living areas, improved the kitchen, and they just completed
exterior painting and replaced all siding with HardiPlank.
However, you will likely want to update all bathrooms at
some point. Please pass if you cannot oversee this kind of
work.
Here is your chance to live in a home that looks like those
you see in magazines. The setting is private, and the price
has now gone from $950,000 to $750,000. The home is vacant,
on a lockbox and easy to show. To see, please call your
agent. The seller is represented by Stan Barron
Properties at 512.626.4911.
