Welcome Home
Tucked along a tranquil canal on Lake Austin, 4500 River Wood Ct, Austin, TX 78731 stands as a statement of timeless architecture and modern luxury. Designed by architect Dillon Kyle and crafted by builder Jake Badger, this 5,658-square-foot residence rests on a private 0.62-acre lot, framed by mature trees and water views.
The grand great room, illuminated by soaring windows, connects seamlessly with the home’s striking two-level library. Blending contemporary light with classic form, the design captures a refined sense of balance, both dramatic and welcoming.
Interior Highlights
Inside, every detail reflects masterful craftsmanship. The great room’s centerpiece fireplace anchors a space framed by walls of glass and built-in bookshelves that span two stories. The chef’s kitchen is an entertainer’s dream, complete with stainless steel appliances, granite counters, a large island, and a walk-in pantry.
The primary suite offers a spa-like experience with dual vanities, a soaking tub, a separate shower, and a sitting area overlooking the trees. Upstairs, a rounded balcony offers the home’s highest vantage point and an unmatched view over the canopy and canal below. The guest level includes three bedrooms, two full baths, and a kitchenette, ideal for visitors or extended stays.
Seamless Living
A private elevator connects both levels, creating effortless flow throughout the home. Expansive windows invite natural light while maintaining privacy through thoughtful orientation. Three fireplaces add warmth and intimacy to the dining room, family room, and library. Concrete, tile, and wood floors create a subtle rhythm of texture underfoot. From the built-in wet bar to the wine-ready storage, every feature has been designed for comfort, function, and grace.
The Outdoors You’ve Dreamed About
The exterior is just as impressive, offering a serene connection to nature and water.
