Property Description

Tucked away behind a long, private driveway in the heart of Barton Hills, this secluded estate offers a rare blend of elevated, effortless design paired with raw natural beauty. At 3/4-acre, the sprawling lot serves as a sanctuary with canopy-rich majestic native oaks and cedars, and home to a series of private trails leading directly to Barton Creek and the Greenbelt. Beyond the main residence, trails lead you to a cozy studio perched in the trees, and a fire pit with views that give you space to exhale. Westhill is a true legacy property that feels worlds away from the city while sitting right in its center. The owners' renovation and addition is where this property found its full expression. Clear-coated white oak runs through all primary living areas, overhead the ceilings are wood-clad and vaulted, and custom maple cabinetry was built in throughout. The layout gives you more dedicated spaces than most homes this size know what to do with: a formal living room, formal dining, private office, den, and additional built-in work desk. The kitchen is built around a commercial range and high-capacity vent hood, with a Liebherr refrigerator and freezer fully integrated into the cabinetry. Marble countertops carry through to the backsplash, and the central island steps it down to waterfall quartz. The room opens to the landscape through a 16-foot Western sliding door system - the kind of detail you notice the first time you see it and think about for a while after. Separate from the main house, a detached writing studio sits lifted above the surrounding greenbelt to make the most of the views. Inside: a large built-in maple desk, commercial-grade windows, authentic Saltillo tile, and a small viewing deck. A nearly completed bathroom is plumbed and ready, there's space roughed in for a future kitchenette, and the studio runs on its own mini-split system, water, electricity, and fiber internet - fully independent from the main house.
