3904 Petra Path is distinguished by its dichotomous nature: The original exterior remains respectfully intact, yet the modernized interior aligns with today's lifestyles. 20-foot vaulted ceilings with an open floor plan, yet cozy nooks abound. Architecturally significant, yet approachable. The current owner took the home down to the studs in 2020 with carefully selected design choices and astute functional additions.
Clerestory windows atop the 20-foot living room ceiling create ephemeral art out of sunlight. The kitchen nestles the living area, providing a communal entertaining space. The grand living area accesses a climate-controlled sunroom via 7-foot panoramic doors. The Malm fireplace in the sunroom gives a wink to the home's original era and beckons for a rocking chair and some vinyl. Two en-suites on opposite sides of the home provide the ideal scenario for guests, a home office, or multigenerational living.
Engineered wide plank French oak, porcelain tile, and stone flooring are found throughout. Custom cabinetry and lighting add distinctive and subtle luxury. New landscaping, irrigation, decking, pavers, and a pergola adorn the 0.3+ acre lot.
Behind the walls, you’ll find all-new electrical systems, new water supply lines using freeze-resistant materials, a Navien continuous recirculating system, and a nifty water cutoff lever in the garage. Dual-zone HVAC ensures your new home is indeed a respite from the Texas heat. DECRA shake metal roofing is as handsome as it is sturdy.
3904 Petra Path is a representation of Austin: retro and renovated, thoughtful and unique, peaceful and playful. THIS is why you live here.
