1304 Folts Avenue

Description

This property offers a version of Austin life that doesn't require a car, a compromise, or a reason to leave. 1304 Folts embodies that version. Step out the front door and the city meets you: the South Lamar and Barton Springs corridors are a short walk away, leading you toward Uchi on a Tuesday night, a Sunday night at the Alamo Drafthouse, or a morning workout at Life Time without the usual commute. Downtown Austin is under two miles away, close enough to feel connected, far enough to feel removed. When you return, the house earns its place in the story. Floor-to-ceiling glass dissolves the boundary between the living space and the pool deck, where a built-in grill station and open patio create the natural setting for evenings that don't require a reservation. Inside, stacked limestone—the same material defining the exterior—reappears in the living room and primary suite, grounding the home in something tactile and warm. The primary bath slows you down further: Venetian plaster walls and large marble tile throughout are composed with the intention that makes a room feel designed rather than decorated. Two living spaces across 3,413 square feet give the home room to breathe and the flexibility to accommodate how life actually unfolds, not how it was planned. The detached guest suite extends that logic outward: it serves as a private retreat for guests, a focused workspace, a wellness room, or simply a door you can close on the rest of the world. Four bedrooms and a detached guest suite. Four full baths. A pool. And a city that starts at your doorstep. 1304 Folts doesn't ask you to choose between a home worth living in and a location worth being at. It's already both.
