Austin Villa

Perched along a ridge overlooking Barton Creek, this home is designed to embrace its stunning natural surroundings. Rooted in southern European architecture, it blends Spanish, Tuscan, and French influences, with artisanal details crafted on-site. The stonework features deep-set mortar, traditional génoise roof detailing, and soft matte plaster walls that create a sense of warmth and authenticity.

The interiors are light and airy, featuring a palette of whites and icy blues that enhance the home’s relaxed, coastal-inspired elegance. Contemporary elements, such as sculptural lighting and sleek furnishings, complement classic architectural details. Slipcovered linen pieces add an effortless charm, making the spaces both beautiful and livable.

The living room is framed by rugged stone and soft white upholstery, anchored by a hand-carved table and sculptural accents. The kitchen continues the home’s refined simplicity with white lacquered cabinetry, pale wood paneling, quartzite countertops, and a botanical-inspired plaster chandelier.

Outdoor spaces unfold in a series of inviting terraces, featuring a dining patio under a custom iron canopy, limestone pathways, and a firepit, pergola, and pool. The cabana, designed to resemble a historic gardener’s shed, is built of dry-stacked stone and features reclaimed beams with a soft white stain, creating a tranquil retreat. A neutral palette is accented with vibrant touches, adding warmth and energy.

With its timeless craftsmanship and understated elegance, this home balances historical authenticity with modern comfort, creating a serene yet sophisticated sanctuary.
