Property Details for 8517 Appalachian Drive, Austin, TX 78759

Heart of Northwest Hills, wonderfully quiet street, gorgeous and updated home backs to the Steck Valley Greenbelt which contains 38.4 AC (can't be developed per the Parks and Rec Department). Breathtaking, undisturbed year 'round California-like canyon views surrounded by natural beauty! Be the envy of all your family and friends. Unbeatable location. Easily access major HWYs, downtown ATX, UT, The Domain plus entertainment, shopping and restaurants. Fortunately, this beautiful home lives like a single story with everything you need for daily living on the main level. No steps as you enter, no sunken rooms. Anyone with mobility challenges can easily move around the main home. Over 1,100 SF of outdoor living space capturing those stunning views - relax, dine, entertain. Thoughtfully updated by an interior designer with stylish, timeless selections. Cozy stone, gas fireplace draws you in to sit a while and enjoy the views. Completely updated kitchen is a chef's dream: ample storage, counter space and convenient breakfast bar. Luxurious Primary Suite features: more greenbelt views from the bedroom and bathroom, a jetted tub with hydrotherapy by Bain, new tile and a walk-in closet. Two roomy secondary bedrooms are wisely separated from the Primary. Flex room with a view on the level below can be used as a home office, 2nd living or 4th bedroom (already has a built-in bed). Two extra rooms (470 SF not included in home square footage) could be used for storage, work room, home gym, music/art studio or easily convert them to living space. So many possibilities! The home feeds to excellent schools and has parks and amenities nearby such as Westover Hills CC and Great Hills CC if you are a golfer. Roof replaced 2023. HVAC redesigned and replaced in 2023 (living area and each bedroom has its own thermostat). Interior and exterior was freshly painted in April of 2023 giving it a fresh, modern feel. A 410 gallon rainwater collection tank is located on the NE side of the home.
