This AIA Award winning home is nestled atop a 1/3 acre lot with amazing hill country views. No detail was overlooked in the design and construction of this noteworthy residence. The exterior setting takes advantage of the slope of the hillside with surrounding native trees and natural stone. Steel and concrete construction allows for high ceilings and expansive glass, creating bright and open interior spaces.
The dramatic SIPS roof with Tigerwood-clad ceiling extends from the carport, through the living area to the rear deck, reinforcing the connection between indoor and outdoor spaces. Below the SIPS roof, the living area connects the kitchen, dining and living rooms with the outdoors through double doors and multiple large windows. All living areas feature wood and concrete floors and custom cabinetry with metal and Tigerwood accents. Honed granite counter tops in the open kitchen compliment the bright stainless steel appliances and back splash.
Adjacent to the kitchen lies a spacious utility room and pantry/wineroom with yet more custom cabinetry. The north side of the home includes 2 large bedrooms, a full bath, and a separate office area, while to the south lies the master suite.
Superior design and integration extends beyond the floor plan and materials to the each of the home’s systems. The high-efficiency HVAC system is entirely contained within the thermal envelope. It can be controlled by an integrated HAI home automation system, which also provides for security and lighting control. Speakers in the living area, master suite and rear deck are wired for an audio distribution system. A 3 kW solar power system allows much of the required electricity to be generated on site.
Custom landscaping by RainLilly Design compliments the natural setting of the home with limestone steps, custom metal railings and retaining wall, and native plants.
Located off Cuernavaca in the award winning Eanes school district, this home is only 10 minutes from downtown, and 5 miles from the new Hill Country Galleria. Membership in the Lake Hills Community Association includes access to a park, boat ramp and pool just down the road on the shore of Lake Austin.
This home was featured on the 2006 AIA Tour of Homes and won a 2007 American Institute of Architects (AIA) design award.
