Perched on the hillside of iconic Balcones Drive, this enchanting ‘50s home is a dream retreat for artists, creatives or anyone with vision and an appreciation for mid-century style. With its castle-like presence and original front windows framing breathtaking views, inspiration is everywhere. The 3-bedroom, 2-bath layout includes a spacious living room with a wood-burning fireplace, a large dining area, and a flexible bonus room—perfect for an office or private workspace with its own entrance. Pocket doors, original latching cabinet handles, a cedar closet, round front window, built-in bookcases, a phone shelf and a rare 600-square-foot basement are some of its unique and charming features. Mid-century construction makes it very quiet and durable. The garage and basement area offers an ideal studio or workshop space with 220v electric, ready for a kiln or an EV charger. The outdoor spaces are just as flexible, with two-level patios—the lower featuring a vintage stone barbecue the upper tucked among the trees with sweeping views to Mueller and beyond. Surrounded by native landscaping for beauty and sustainability, this home is built of native white limestone. Recent upgrades include a new HVAC system (2020), fresh interior and exterior paint (2024), and a chef’s range (2024). A home that nurtures both life and art, this is a truly special find.
