Designer finishes, dramatic vistas, and an absolutely amazing Austin location — that's only the start of what Amarra, Barton Creek's newest community, has to offer.
It's all located just 15 minutes southwest of downtown Austin and the airport, and even closer to fine dining and shopping. The Barton Creek Nature Preserve and Watershed surround the site, meaning that the pristine natural beauty will always remain so, and you get the added bonus of the Fazio Canyons Golf Course and Hill Country and downtown skylines to boot.
No matter what you're looking for in your dream home, there are several ways to find it at Amarra. Homesites range from one to five or more acres, each taking full advantage of the community's elevation and panoramic views. You can bring in your own builder and architect or work with any that are currently represented in the development.
For those seeking a lock-and-leave lifestyle, consider the Amarra Villas. When completed, this enclave will include 20 single-family homes that allow for luxurious amenities with ultra-low maintenance, making every aspect of living there turnkey. Stratus Properties Inc., the master developer for Amarra, is also planning additional condominium regime opportunities in the neighborhood, aiming to offer a smaller residential footprint with all the luxurious and thoughtful finishes expected in Barton Creek.
But if you're looking for a home that's ready to go right now, Stratus Properties Inc. is offering two spectacular listings that are sure to attract attention, custom designed by Cornerstone Architects and built by Schatz Homes.
8400 Valerio Lane is a four-bedroom, single-story home thoughtfully situated on a one-acre homesite that offers sweeping views over the fairways. Expansive living areas, a gourmet kitchen with Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances, and abundant natural light enhance the ease of this unique floorplan, which totals 5,456 square feet. Dramatic outdoor spaces include a covered and screened-in porch, private courtyard, al fresco kitchen and dining area, and a custom pool and spa.
The slightly larger 8308 Valerio Lane also offers four bedrooms and nearly 6,000 square feet, spread throughout two stories. The custom-designed residence is nestled into a tree line overlooking the 14th fairway and features distinct amenities throughout. Think an expanded owner's suite and courtyard, a true chef's kitchen, and extensive outdoor living and dining spaces. Floor-to-ceiling windows in the living areas showcase the covered lanai, stunning views, and private pool and spa.
No matter which option you select, purchasing a home at Amarra secures you membership to the highly coveted Barton Creek Country Club and its newly remodeled full-service spa and fitness center, fine dining options, and access to social events.
