What's around 4505 Balcones Drive

About this property

Backed by a tree-lined creek and set on nearly half an acre, this 5,000 sq ft residence has been transformed with over $800K in renovations. The result is a one-of-a-kind home that blends timeless craftsmanship in a setting that feels connected to nature while still close to everything Austin has to offer. Step through custom steel entry doors into a light-filled interior where walls of windows frame the landscape and create a treehouse-like atmosphere. At the heart of the home, soaring ceilings and a striking atrium anchor the living spaces. Just off the atrium, a massive private office makes an ideal executive workspace. The chef’s kitchen features white oak cabinetry, Dacor appliances, and a 36-inch range, designed for both entertaining and everyday living. The main-level primary suite is designed as a sanctuary, featuring his-and-hers bathrooms/closets plus a private outdoor shower framed in Brazilian hardwood. Upstairs are four additional bedrooms, each with its own dedicated bathroom. One serves as a spacious playroom/home gym, while another - set above the garage with its own staircase, wet bar, and sitting area - functions beautifully as a private mother-in-law suite, offering ideal accommodations for long-term guests or family. Every upgrade has been considered - from handmade tilework, plaster fireplace, and European lighting to level-5 smooth drywall, new windows, smart-home EcoBee HVAC with zoned climate control, and laundry on BOTH levels. Outdoor living has been completely reimagined. The pool was freshly plastered and expanded with a large baja ledge, the expansive pool deck was rebuilt, and the backyard redesigned with brand-new turf, fencing, an outdoor kitchen, custom garage doors, a new metal roof, professional crawlspace waterproofing, and lush landscaping. With 5 bedrooms, 5.5 bathrooms, a showcase office, this home offers a rare combination of scale, high-end finishes, and natural surroundings - just minutes from downtown Austin.

We absolutely loved working with Wende

We absolutely loved working with Wende. Her integrity and kindness shine through in everything she does, and we've already recommended her to friends. She made our Austin buying experience smooth, enjoyable, and stress-free. Thank you, Wende, for going above and beyond.
