About this home
The Arbor House—a one-of-a-kind architectural residence nestled in the heart of Pemberton Heights, one of Austin’s most coveted and historic neighborhoods. Perfectly positioned along Shoal Creek with gated access to the beloved Pease Park and miles of the Shoal Creek Trail, this extraordinary home offers the rare opportunity to live in curated luxury just minutes from downtown Austin, while feeling worlds away in a lush, tree-filled sanctuary.
Envisioned by renowned architect Sam Burch, built by the meticulous Risinger Build, and developed by the esteemed Kalantari Group, this home is a masterclass in modern design rooted in timeless character. From the moment you enter through the striking dual-sided Presidio glass entryway, you’re greeted by a breathtaking interplay of light, nature, and refined craftsmanship. White oak flooring and shiplapped walls stretch throughout the open layout, creating a warm, elevated atmosphere that feels both contemporary and enduring.
The kitchen is a showpiece—anchored by custom cabinetry crafted from reclaimed white oak, dramatic soapstone countertops, and a professional-grade 48-inch Bertazzoni range. The adjoining wet bar, wrapped in rich viola marble and gleaming brass, adds a touch of glamour, while the butler’s pantry stuns with its distinctive grey-and-white checkered marble floor. This is a culinary space where beauty meets performance, ready for both grand entertaining and everyday ease.
The primary suite is a serene sanctuary, featuring a spa-like marble bathroom with a soaking tub and walk-in shower, an expansive walk-in closet, and a private balcony that floats above the treetops. On the top level, a flexible living space sits high above the canopy—ideal as a lounge, home gym, playroom, or creative retreat, with endless possibilities to suit your lifestyle.
Outside, the experience continues. A screened-in back porch flows seamlessly to the terraced backyard, shaded by majestic oaks and designed for both entertaining and quiet reflection. Included in the current pricing is a fully permitted and ready-to-build pool, offering the future owner the chance to complete their outdoor oasis with ease. With an outdoor kitchen, private trail access, and a location that places you within walking or biking distance to downtown Austin, this home offers a lifestyle that’s both luxurious and deeply connected to nature.
A rare fusion of design, location, and livability, The Arbor House is a true architectural gem set in the heart of Pemberton Heights—where timeless craftsmanship meets the energy of the city and the serenity of the trees.
