Property Overview

This architecturally curated residence at 1604 Garner Avenue in Zilker represents a rare convergence of design intentionality and neighborhood prestige. Designed by acclaimed Davey McEathron Architecture with interiors and construction by Cary Paul Studios (2026 Best Builder honoree), this 2025-built home moves beyond typical spec construction to deliver a genuinely singular living experience. The interiors layer mid-century modernism with 70s and Memphis modern influences throughout custom built-ins, hand-selected tilework, and boutique lighting fixtures, while a sunken conversation pit and walnut-clad kitchen peninsula with terrazzo countertops anchor social spaces with warmth and sophistication.

The home's four bedrooms and four bathrooms occupy 2,752 square feet on a generously proportioned Zilker lot. The primary suite flows onto the main-floor deck and includes dual closets, while bespoke details like angular architectural elements, warm brick accents, and a retro planter box infuse personality throughout. The property's proximity to Zilker Park, Barton Springs Pool, and the Hike & Bike Trail positions residents at the intersection of Austin's most coveted outdoor amenities and South Lamar's dining scene.

At Vox Residential, we recognize that discerning buyers seeking Zilker's lifestyle combined with design-driven craftsmanship will find this property's authentic creative vision difficult to replicate elsewhere in Austin.
