Property Overview

This rare Mid-Century Modern gem on Barton Boulevard commands one of Zilker's most coveted addresses, where ownership of 706 Barton Boulevard means direct access to some of Austin's most iconic outdoor spaces. The home's true asset is its spectacular backyard oasis: a newly resurfaced pool overlooking Barton Springs Pool and West Lake Hills, capturing sunset views and a front-row vantage of ACL Fest and Trail of Lights throughout the year. The thoughtfully renovated main residence honors its 1959 roots while delivering modern living, featuring a redesigned kitchen, terrazzo flooring, and soaring floor-to-ceiling windows that blur the line between interior and pool deck. The separate guest house adds flexibility for extended family or hosting, while a newly built office and laundry with custom ice machine enhance daily convenience.

Located in one of Austin's most prestigious neighborhoods, this 5-bedroom, 3-bath home sits blocks from Zilker Park, the Hike & Bike Trail, and South Lamar's celebrated dining corridor. The primary bath has been completely reimagined with custom vanities and new finishes throughout. At $3.4M, this property reflects the premium pricing of properties in this exceptional pocket of 78704, where access to Lady Bird Lake, top-tier schools, and downtown is unmatched. The under-deck storage system keeps pool accessories and seasonal décor seamlessly hidden, maintaining the property's refined aesthetic year-round.

The vaulted kitchen and living area with polished original terrazzo flooring has a floor-to-ceiling glass sliding wall that opens directly to the pool for indoor-outdoor living. And the outdoor living is spectacular. The original 8’ deep pool is redone in PebbleTec with new coping, decking and lighting. The backyard and massive ipe deck offer views into Barton Springs and Zilker Park with sunsets over West Lake Hills. During ACL you can watch the second main stage from your deck chair. It’s a 5-minute stroll down to the park, springs, and trails.
