3111 Above Stratford Place

Tucked away in the coveted gated enclave of Stratford Place, 3111 Above Stratford Place is a fully reimagined estate that captures the essence of refined Austin living. Elevated on 1.17 acres with sweeping views of the downtown skyline and rolling Hill Country, this residence is both a private sanctuary and an entertainer’s dream, blending timeless architecture with a sophisticated, modern sensibility. Every detail was meticulously considered in a complete renovation in 2024 led by architect Chris Sanders, builder David Wilkes, and designer Laura Britt, resulting in a home of unparalleled craftsmanship and style.

Upon entering, the residence reveals a flowing layout designed for both everyday living and grand entertaining. The main level is anchored by a dramatic double-sided fireplace that connects the formal and casual living spaces, while walls of retractable glass doors disappear to create a seamless transition to the outdoors. A formal bar and custom wine room elevate the home’s entertaining capabilities, complemented by two dedicated offices and a state-of-the-art media room that ensure both function and leisure are met with equal measure.

The chef’s kitchen is a striking centerpiece, outfitted with Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances, dual ice makers—including the sought-after Scotsman Sonic Ice—custom Kolby windows with hidden shades, and exquisite lighting by Visual Comfort and Hammerton. Every surface has been thoughtfully finished with marble and stone from Architectural Tile and Stone, including statement inlaid brass tiles in the primary bathroom and bar. An artist-designed powder room featuring tiles by Michael Aram adds an additional layer of bespoke luxury.

The primary suite, tucked on the main level, is a serene retreat with dual California Closets, spa-inspired bath, and expansive windows framing glittering city views. Upstairs, four generous guest suites each offer private en-suite bathrooms, creating a perfect balance of comfort and privacy for family and guests.

Outside, expansive covered and screened-in patios with electronic shades overlook a resort-style pool and spa, complete with a built-in grilling station for effortless entertaining. Integrated Bromic heaters and a descending ceiling-mounted television ensure year-round comfort, while a Sunbrite outdoor TV—visible even in direct sunlight—brings modern convenience to the outdoor living experience.

This home is fully automated with a Lutron and Control4 system, placing control of lighting, shades, music, fireplaces, televisions, garage doors, and security in the palm of your hand. With interiors curated by Laura Britt, the option to purchase fully furnished, and a location just minutes from downtown Austin in the prestigious 78746 zip code, 3111 Above Stratford Place represents a rare turn-key opportunity to own a residence of unmatched quality and design in one of the city’s most exclusive enclaves.
