Description

Just listed and Better than New Construction! Timeless design meets one of Austin’s most coveted, walkable neighborhoods. Located in the heart of 78704, 1704 S. 5th offers a rare blend of architectural integrity, privacy, and effortless access to the best of Austin living. Designed by FAB Architecture, this modern residence makes a striking first impression with a gated courtyard entry that sets the tone for what’s inside. A light-filled foyer opens to expansive living spaces defined by clean lines and gallery-style white walls—ideal for art collectors and design enthusiasts alike. The open-concept living, dining, and kitchen area is both sophisticated and highly functional. The chef’s kitchen features premium appliances, a generous center island, and a walk-in pantry—perfectly suited for entertaining or everyday living. Thoughtful details elevate the home throughout: polished concrete and warm wood flooring (no carpet), abundant natural light, and seamless indoor-outdoor flow. A well-appointed first-floor guest suite offers privacy for visitors or flexibility for a home office. Upstairs, a spacious secondary living area with built-ins provides room to work, relax, or gather. The primary suite feels like a private retreat, with tranquil views of the illuminated tree canopy—creating a true “treehouse” experience in the middle of the city. Step outside to a screened-in porch overlooking a lush backyard with room for a pool and spa—your own private oasis in 78704. Additional features include alley access, a one-car garage with ample storage, and a two-car solar-covered carport. From this prime location, you’re just minutes from Zilker Park, Barton Springs Pool, Lady Bird Lake, and the vibrant energy of South Congress Avenue—with its boutiques, restaurants, and cultural landmarks. This is modern Austin living at its finest—private, design-forward, and deeply connected to the city’s most iconic destinations.
