Properties
Three foot thick limestone walls and a long gated driveway conceal this West Austin Hill Country estate. Not only a popular filming location (the Cortez family home in Spy Kids), but also a venue space, internationally acclaimed artist's creative compound, and personal retreat. Backing up to over 1100 acres of protected state land, Villa Artique, much like it's limestone walls, isn't going anywhere.
Award winning firm, Baldridge Architects, leaned into this modernist home with a clear intention of privacy. Placing the main home back on the property, and having a beautiful poolside reveal as you walk the lighted breezeway to the front door, creates a sense of privacy and retreat. Entering the home, you never lose a sense of indoor/outdoor connection, but afford privacy with a well planned layout. Bouldin Creek is one of the most desirable neighborhoods close to downtown. Here you can be in the best location and FEEL the retreat of privacy and peace.
