Facts & features
Why you’ll love it
Welcome to The Grotto, a rare single-story retreat on Mount Bonnell that combines timeless architecture, thoughtful design, and one of Austin’s most captivating backyards. This 3,006-square-foot home delivers the perfect balance of privacy, wellness, and convenience—just minutes from downtown Austin, the Arboretum, and the Domain. Inside, vaulted ceilings, skylights, and a stone fireplace fill the living spaces with volume and natural light. The chef’s kitchen features dual ovens, two dishwashers, a prep sink, walk-in pantry, and a large island designed for entertaining or everyday ease. Multiple living areas, including a dedicated office, create flexibility for modern lifestyles. The private primary suite opens directly to the backyard and offers a spa-like bath with dual vanities, soaking tub, and separate shower—plus a rare in-home sauna for daily wellness. Secondary bedrooms are positioned on the opposite wing for comfort and privacy. Outdoors, the property transforms into a true sanctuary. A heated pool with cascading waterfall and grotto sets the scene, complemented by a screened-in porch, outdoor fireplace, and hidden gazebo. A shaded pavilion offers the perfect space for yoga, meditation, or quiet escape, while a dedicated pool bath with laundry adds thoughtful functionality. Enclosed by an 8-foot cast-stone privacy wall and surrounded by lush landscaping, the backyard feels worlds away while remaining centrally located. Set on a quiet cul-de-sac in the Stoneledge neighborhood of Mount Bonnell, this residence backs to the 200-acre Bright Leaf Preserve and feeds into Austin ISD schools including Highland Park Elementary, Lamar Middle, and McCallum High. The Grotto delivers the best of Austin living—vaulted interiors, a backyard retreat, and a location that connects you to the city while keeping you grounded in privacy.
