About 1604 Garner Avenue
Huge Price Improvement! 150k below original ask + 125k below recent appraisal! Not your typical spec home - Eclectic 1970s mid-century modern–inspired home designed by Davey McEathron Architecture, with interiors and construction by Cary Paul Studios. This true architectural gem in the heart of Zilker blends mid-century modern design with bold 70s and Memphis modern influences and was selected to be featured on the Austin Modern Homes Tour on February 28. Inside, a sunken conversation pit anchors the main living space, complemented by a walnut-clad, terrazzo-topped kitchen peninsula, Memphis mod–inspired floating shelves, warm brick accents, and a retro planter box. Custom angular built-ins, boutique lighting, and hand-selected tile create a cohesive, one-of-a-kind aesthetic throughout. The primary suite is a serene retreat with sliding doors to the main-floor deck, a built-in closet plus a spacious walk-in closet with stackable washer/dryer connections, and a spa-like bath featuring a soaking tub, walk-in shower, and private toilet room. The second level offers two bedrooms with a Jack-and-Jill bath, a generous laundry room, and a light-filled landing with custom storage and a reading nook. A large deck with downtown views is a showstopper. The third floor continues to impress with a covered private deck, lounge area with custom wet bar and panel-ready beverage fridge, an additional bedroom with built-in bench seating, and a bright modern bath. Outdoor living shines with unobstructed downtown skyline views from the expansive second-floor Ipe deck and a private third-floor suite deck.
