Tucked inside the exclusive, fully-gated Villas of Lost Canyon, this beautifully updated luxury townhome offers a rare opportunity to live just blocks from Zilker Park, Lady Bird Lake, Barton Springs, downtown Austin, and the very best of 78704—while enjoying a level of privacy and security almost unheard of this close to the urban core. Behind the striking solid-wood and iron entry gates, the Villas is an intimate 31-residence community that, in spite of its premium connectedness, feels quietly worlds away. Newly installed tree and landscape lighting create a stunning nighttime ambiance and an added sense of security. Neighbors gather at the dog park, private fitness studio, and community fire pit—fostering a true lock-and-leave lifestyle without sacrificing warmth or connection. Inside, the home is among the most thoughtfully updated in the neighborhood. Wide-plank wood floors, quartz counters, custom cabinetry, high-end appliances, high ceilings, designer lighting, and refined finishes elevate every level. The gourmet kitchen opens seamlessly to the main living area, creating an ideal setting for both everyday comfort and entertaining. A private in-home elevator services all three floors, making groceries, luggage, and guests effortless. The spacious primary suite is a true retreat with a private balcony overlooking the picturesque hillside and cityscape, dual walk-in closets, and a renovated bathroom featuring a soaking tub. The home’s well-appointed secondary bedrooms, including one superbly flexible as an additional living space, are ideal for guests, remote work, or entertainment. A private 2-car garage provides secure, direct access to the home. For those who want access to the very best that Austin urban living has to offer—yet return home to peace, security, and superb community—this is a rare and compelling offering.
