5701 Painted Valley DR Austin, TX 78759

Listing details for 5701 Painted Valley DR, Austin, TX 78759 : OFFER deadline Tuesday 5PM. SUNDAY OPEN 1-3. Perched above a lush canyon on nearly two-thirds of an acre in Austin's coveted Great Hills neighborhood, The Canyon Contemporary by MakingModernHome is a thoughtfully reimagined 1980s residence celebrating its architectural origins while embracing modern living. (Final inspections and finishing touches underway. Updated photography coming soon, featuring the freshly oiled Ipe deck and sunlight streaming through the interiors.) Sweeping canyon views, mature oaks, and exceptional southern exposure fill the home with soft, natural light. The renovation preserves its original character, including the restored terrazzo foyer, rich architectural paneling, and clerestory windows, while introducing a sophisticated palette of natural oak, antique brass, limestone, and layered textures. Generous living spaces embrace the views, with an exceptionally functional kitchen featuring oak cabinetry, natural stone countertops, and considered details. The redesigned floor plan includes a main-level primary suite, dramatic limewashed office or guest room, and full guest bath. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms, a full bath, flexible loft (easily enclosed as another bedroom), and second-story deck create a treehouse-like retreat among the oaks. Outdoor living is equally compelling. An approximately 700-square-foot elevated deck with steel structure and Ipe decking overlooks the canyon, while the dramatic terraced backyard connects to the natural landscape and offers a spectacular setting for a future infinity-edge pool. With step-free entry, a versatile floor plan, and remarkable privacy, the home is equally suited to quiet mornings overlooking the canyon or intimate gatherings in its generous living spaces. Nestled among the rolling hills and mature oaks of Great Hills, yet remarkably convenient to the Arboretum, shopping, dining, and Austin's major employment corridors, this home feels wonderfully removed without being far away.
