A true work of art in Westlake’s best-kept secret – Las Lomas. Renowned architect Michael Hsu’s touches are designed into every detail of this singular residence – natural materials utilized to perfection. Just yards behind the much-hyped streets of Rollingwood, Las Lomas enjoys rare large lots, great views and privacy, and a low tax rate. 705 Las Lomas epitomizes a comfortable, modern style combining warmth & livability, carefully created to cascade down the lot, highlighting the spectacular views. The luxurious courtyard anchors the pool, spa, firepit, movie screen, and built-in outdoor seating to create indelible memories. The pool is deep enough for diving, the covered outdoor dining can seat at least a dozen, and the adjacent fully appointed casita doubles as a party space before or after the sun dies down.
The main home contains 5 bedrooms, 5-1/2 baths white oak floors throughout, a custom steel staircase, exposed concrete walls downstairs, 2 offices, a climate-controlled wine room, and a separate, perfectly placed 1-1 casita. The views command attention, and the architecture reflects Hsu’s works at Uchi, Loro, Sway, the Cliff House, and countless others. 705 Las Lomas is one of the few Hsu-designed private homes in Central Austin. 5 minutes from downtown Austin, and 5 minutes from award-winning Eanes schools, this residence offers the perfect package of desirability, functionality, and value appreciation. Nestled into the last cul-de-sac at the end of a low-traffic residential paradise, 705 is the fresh new epitome of what this neighborhood embodies.
The 1.6+ acre lot still contains potential for future improvements – only about half of the allowable impervious cover has been utilized, and the septic system has additional capacity. See broker for details.
