Tucked behind the gates of Somerset in West Lake Hills, The Summit House sits elevated—both in position and in design. With panoramic views of the Austin skyline, the twinkle of city lights becomes part of the home’s ambiance, casting a glow that shifts with the light of day.
Reimagined through a $2 million transformation by Elizabeth Stanley Design, this 8,200+ square foot estate is a bold expression of organic contemporary architecture. Steel-framed doors and windows, unlacquered brass fixtures, reclaimed white oak cabinetry, and polished Taj Mahal marble create a warm, grounded luxury throughout.
The main living room centers on a marble-tiled fireplace and opens to custom built-ins and natural light. The kitchen features integrated appliances, Taj Mahal quartzite counters, and a full butler’s pantry with second oven, wine fridge, and built-in coffee station. The study stuns with terrazzo fireplace and full bar.
The owner’s suite is a true retreat with fireplace, two oversized closets, and a spa-style bath. With seven bedrooms total, the home is designed for real life—featuring two full laundry rooms, one on each level, for everyday ease.
Upstairs offers a full guest apartment (2 beds + kitchen + living), a large media room, and an expansive game/living room with a terrace overlooking the downtown skyline.
Five garage bays accommodate up to 12 vehicles—one climate-controlled for a full golf simulator. An elevator connects both levels for effortless access.
Outside, a cascading waterfall flows into the pool, framed by covered terraces, an outdoor dining area, sport court, and flat lawn.
Minutes from downtown but completely removed, The Summit House is a private, design-forward sanctuary offering scale, serenity, and spectacular views.
