Welcome to The Arbor House—a one-of-a-kind architectural residence set along Shoal Creek in the heart of Pemberton Heights, one of Austin’s most storied and sought-after neighborhoods. Reimagined and expanded by architect Sam Burch, masterfully built by Risinger Build, and developed by the Kalantari Group, this exceptional home offers a rare fusion of inspired design and everyday livability—just minutes from downtown, yet surrounded by nature and tranquility.

From the moment you arrive, the dual-sided Presidio glass entryway makes a striking first impression, bathing the interior in natural light and framing serene views of the lush surroundings. Inside, white oak floors, shiplapped walls, and an open-concept layout reflect both warmth and refinement. The kitchen is a true centerpiece, featuring reclaimed white oak cabinetry, dramatic soapstone countertops, a 48” Bertazzoni range, a custom viola marble and brass wet bar, and a butler’s pantry with bold checkerboard marble floors.

The primary suite offers a luxurious escape, complete with a spa-like marble bathroom, soaking tub, walk-in shower, spacious closet, and a private balcony perched above the treetops. The top floor floats above it all, offering a flexible retreat perfect for a lounge, playroom, gym, or creative space.

Outdoor living is just as inspired. A screened-in back porch flows to a terraced backyard shaded by towering oak trees, with a full outdoor kitchen and private, gated access to Pease Park and Shoal Creek Trail. A fully permitted and ready-to-build pool is included in the pricing, offering the next owner the opportunity to finish the outdoor oasis with ease.

Thoughtful, timeless, and undeniably special, The Arbor House is a rare opportunity to live in design-driven luxury in one of Austin’s most prestigious central neighborhoods.
