This unique Austin hilltop home was dubbed Cielo---A Home in the Sky by renowned Austin architect Robert James Coote, professor emeritus at the University of Texas. The seller nostalgically calls it “Heaven with an Elevator”. The completely open floor plan invites cool breezes to circulate throughout the home through well- placed sliding glass doors and the windows that provide a seamless transition between interior and exterior. Designed to be passively solar, the house enjoys energy saving design features that residents appreciate even in the hottest summer months. On winter days, the seller tells me that she enjoys the abundant light and warmth of the sunroom where she goes to have her coffee or read a good book. The large, open fireplace warms the living area, dining and kitchen. The magnificent view is always a backdrop for any activity. Reigning high upon a hill and with dramatic and panoramic views, this home has the best views of Lake Austin that this area native has ever seen. Located at the bend of the river, you can see the river meander through the hills for miles and miles in both directions. The architecture of this three-story home takes full advantage of these magnificent views with walls of windows and spacious porches. The living, dining, sunroom and kitchen have a 360 degree view of the hills and lake and spill onto native sandstone patios for enjoying the views, watching the abundant wildlife or doing some al fresco dining. A tapestry of bookshelves line the stairway to the master bedroom upstairs where each has a separate bath, closet and dressing area. A Juliet balcony, Austin style, overlooks the open living area and provides views of the river while a “writer’s dream” study beckons as a private place to pen the next bestseller. At day’s end, the seller fondly tells me that she and her husband would slip up to the magnificent perch above the master to take in the sunset, do a bit of star gazing or just sip a glass of wine and enjoy their little piece of heaven. Additional living spaces and two bedrooms downstairs are easily accessible by stairs or elevator and are just a short walk to the very private pool, another oasis on the property. A limestone walkway winds through some native Texas landscaping and wildflowers that punctuate the yard and invite you enjoy the view or take in a swim. Puffy white clouds drift over the Texas sky and make you feel like you are on vacation at Cielo.
