The Balcones Treehouse is a stunning architectural revival in the heart of Highland Park West. Originally built mid-century and meticulously expanded in 2017, this 5-bedroom, 4 full bathroom, multi-living-area estate blends thoughtful design with refined functionality across an expansive, private lot on legendary Balcones Drive. Designed to live primarily as a single-level home, the main floor features five spacious bedrooms, a dedicated office, three living areas, and a media room-all flowing effortlessly into multiple covered outdoor living and dining spaces. Vaulted ceilings, clean lines, and oversized windows invite natural light and greenery into every corner of the home. Downstairs, a walk-out guest suite offers rare versatility-complete with private entrance, living room, full bath, and spacious bedroom. Ideal for extended guests, live-in family, or quiet creative work- it's a secluded extension of this already expansive home. While every inch of the property exudes elegance, the true star of the show is the backyard-a breathtaking retreat nestled under a canopy of towering heritage oaks. This private, park-like setting unfolds in layers of curated outdoor living: dine al fresco, unwind in the shade, or simply take in the natural beauty that surrounds you. It's more than a backyard-it's a sanctuary in the city, and the soul of the home. Walk to Highland Park Elementary, Perry Park, Mount Bonnell, and beloved local spots for coffee, dining, and shopping-The Balcones Treehouse offers timeless luxury, intentional design, and walkable convenience in one of Austin's most desirable neighborhoods.
