Property Overview

This Forest Mesa townhouse in Northwest Hills represents a rare find where meticulous ownership meets thoughtful design. Every system and surface has been completely renewed by an owner committed to quality over compromise. The kitchen anchors the home with a full rebuild featuring raised ceilings, custom walnut cabinetry with soft-close doors, honed granite countertops, and a complete appliance suite including a wine refrigerator. Both bathrooms received equally uncompromising treatment, with the primary bath delivering spa-like luxury through a fluted double vanity, brushed gold fixtures, and designer sconce lighting. Recent renovations extended throughout: lifetime-warranty windows, new interior doors and trim in solid shaker style, and fresh paint create a cohesive foundation.

Positioned at $489,000, this 1,128-square-foot townhouse offers $434 per square foot in a neighborhood known for lasting value. The property's 4,813-square-foot lot provides breathing room unusual for attached housing in this area. Two bedrooms and two full bathrooms serve modern living needs, while the meticulous attention to detail—from plumbing and electrical upgrades to structural improvements—reflects a different approach to renovation. Northwest Hills remains Austin's most sought-after established community, and this home demonstrates why discerning buyers choose the area.

Vox Residential Insight

At Vox Residential, we recognize that this property hits the market fresh because the owner orchestrated a renovation that respects the bones of the home rather than masking them. In Northwest Hills, where both land and location command premiums, buyers increasingly value substance over surface-level updates, and this Forest Mesa address delivers exactly that caliber of work.

This is not a flip. This is the real thing. The kitchen was taken to the studs and rebuilt from scratch: ceiling raised to 8 feet, 42-inch solid plywood box cabinets in slim shaker walnut with soft-close doors, honed granite countertops, wine refrigerator, and an all-new appliance package. Sleek, functional, and built to last. Both bathrooms received the same uncompromising treatment — fully renovated down to the plumbing, tile, electrical, and fixtures (primary 2025, guest 2026). The primary bath is a genuine spa moment: fluted double vanity, brushed gold hardware, dual arched mirrors, and designer sconce lighting. The rest of the list reads like a home inspector's dream: new lifetime-warranty windows, new solid shaker interior doors and trim, full interior repaint, Nest smart thermostat, MyQ smart garage door, tile-floored 2-car garage, washer/dryer convey.
