Austin, TX 78759
Welcome to 3607 Brownwood, a bold, fully reimagined mid-century modern home in the heart of Balcones West, one of Austin's most tightly held communities. Originally featured in the '68 Parade of Homes, this custom residence showcases the era's signature architectural creativity through its dynamic split-level design: a sunken living area, sunken kitchen, and elevated great room create distinct yet flowing spaces, all connected by just a few steps and living effortlessly. Set beneath towering oaks on a large corner lot along a quiet no-through-traffic street, this 2,538 sqft home delivers privacy, presence, and unmistakable style. The $70K+ renovation was extensive and intentional including a recent roof, minor foundation repairs, a new water heater, and new decking. Lighting, fans, hardware, and more have been updated throughout, along with fresh paint brings a clean modern edge. LVP flooring anchors the living areas while plush new carpet enhances the bedrooms and great room. Vaulted and beamed ceilings flood the home with natural light. The kitchen makes a statement with new quartz counters and a sleek tile backsplash designed for easy living. Just off the kitchen, a spacious side porch offers the ideal setup for grilling and outdoor dining al fresco. A cozy gas fireplace grounds the main living space, blending warmth with modern design. Upstairs, the great room is a standout retreat, often described as a treehouse, surrounded by leafy views and offering loads of built-ins for storage and a deck. The private backyard features a hot tub tucked beneath the trees. With 4 bedrooms and 2.5 baths, the layout is flexible, functional, and comfortable. Spacious lots create a rare sense of space, and the neighborhood is known for exceptional neighbors across generations. Zoned to Hill, Murchison, and Anderson High. Quick access to highways connect you to The Domain, DT, Lake Austin, Mount Bonnell, and more. Balcones West is timeless, architectural, and rarely available.
