Now for lease, fully furnished: $7,900/mo on a 6 to 12 month lease, or $8,500/mo for terms of 6 months or less. Hidden among the heritage oaks of historic Travis Heights, this modern Japanese tea house is reimagined as a home: serene, light-filled, and built entirely new from the studs. Zen calm greets you at the door. Wide-plank white oak floors run beneath vaulted ceilings lined with exposed timber beams, glowing display niches frame art and treasures, and a stunning glass-covered sunroom framed in black steel blurs the line between garden and home, pouring in soft natural light. High-end finishes carry through every room. The kitchen pairs warm oak cabinetry with a stone-topped island, brass fixtures and a matching suite of Italian-inspired Forno Espresso appliances in white and antique brass. The second bath is a spa sanctuary of handmade-style tile, a sculptural Japanese soaking tub and a lit tile niche. Three serene bedrooms open to the trees. Move in with ease: the home comes furnished with two beds, a traditional Japanese sitting table, a dining table and more, curated to match the architecture. Built for deep rest and healthy living: ambient red lighting runs throughout the home, so evenings unwind free of sleep-disrupting blue light. Beneath the beauty it is a new home through and through, built with mold-resistant drywall, mold-resistant insulation and mold-resistant building materials, plus all-new systems. Moments from South Congress, Big Stacy Park, Lady Bird Lake and downtown. Truly an art piece, not just a home: a one-of-a-kind sanctuary for design, wellness and the best of Austin.
