2301 S 5th St unit: 6 6 Set within the Live Oak grove once part of Mattie's historic estate, this street-facing residence at The South 5th captures the spirit of 78704-urban yet serene, private yet connected. Crafted from solid concrete and floor-to-ceiling glass, the home balances industrial design with natural surroundings. The kitchen, designed specifically for this residence by Herb Schoening, a former Austin interior designer, features custom walnut veneer cabinetry extending to the ceiling with vertically matched grain, honed Calacatta Gold marble countertops, a white marble mosaic backsplash from Artistic Tile, integrated Miele appliances, and brushed stainless steel hardware. The result is a refined and ergonomic workspace that blends craftsmanship with comfort. The flexible lower level serves perfectly as a dedicated office, gym, or creative studio-ideal for professionals who live and work from home. Upstairs, the main living area is filled with natural light and leafy privacy, while the guest suite offers its own quiet retreat. The primary bedroom includes a west-facing balcony overlooking the street, offering an urban perspective and a comfortable place to unwind at day's end. Built with thick, well-insulated walls between units, the residence provides a rare sense of quiet and privacy within a townhouse setting. Each home also includes solar panels, contributing to energy efficiency and reduced utility costs. A fenced yard shaded by a grand oak adds a private outdoor retreat, complete with dog doors from the balconies for effortless access. Just steps from Mattie's on the Green, where the estate's legacy continues with two bars and indoor-outdoor dining beneath the same ancient oaks, and only a few blocks from the new large H-E-B on South Congress, this South 5th home offers modern design, turnkey comfort, and a timeless connection to Austin's past and present-close to Thai Fresh, LeNoir, Swedish Hill, and Once Over Coffee Bar.
