4704 Toreador Drive is an emblem of mid-century elegance. The home is perched high with an unrivaled 220-degree panorama view that encompasses the dynamic skyline of downtown Austin, the iconic University of Texas Tower, and the majestic State Capitol, not to mention select views of Lake Austin. Nestled on a serene 1.02-acre expanse, this home is ensconced amidst a canopy of mature oaks, offering both seclusion and natural splendor. The living area emerges as the heart of the residence, where expansive floor-to-ceiling windows not only flood the space with sunlight but also frame the exquisite vistas, blending relaxation with refined entertainment. This residence is ingeniously designed to accommodate multi-generational living, highlighted by a secluded Primary Suite that features lofty ceilings, awe-inspiring views with private access to the front balcony, and a well appointed primary bathroom with two walk-in closets. The suite’s balcony is a sanctuary for witnessing the mesmerizing sunsets that paint the Austin skyline. On the main level, a dedicated office space, boasting the same breathtaking views, provides flexibility for conversion into a nursery or guest room, reflecting the home’s adaptability to its residents’ evolving needs. The dining area, with its direct views of downtown, is easily accessible from the butler’s pantry and kitchen, crafting an ideal environment for social gatherings. The lower level unfolds as a distinct living quarter with a private entrance, perfectly suited for guests, extended family living, or as a lucrative short-term rental option. This level’s thoughtfully planned plumbing infrastructure anticipates the easy addition of a kitchenette. Moreover, the expansive lower living room adapts to various uses, from a fitness area to a creative workshop. Residing within the bounds of the esteemed Eanes Independent School District, 4704 Toreador is zoned to top ranked schools in both academics and sports.
