Created by Rock Paper Build and Davey McEathron Architecture, the East 12th Residence is a case study for what happens when a husband (architect) and wife (builder) team up to create a highly detailed, highly customized community of 2 houses and 2 accessory dwelling units in the vibrant East Austin neighborhood of Chestnut.
Grain-matched walnut cabinets in the kitchen serve as a warm and sophisticated backdrop to the open floor plan on the first floor - with 10’ ceilings and level 5 drywall. The large waterfall kitchen island, topped with a leathered, infinity white quartzite countertop anchors the kitchen while a large, double sliding glass door by Western opens to a private backyard with a thermally modified ash deck and a 176 sf custom pool. The design-build team worked closely with the concrete supplier to develop a custom aggregate mix for the foundation that, once ground down and polished, resembles a black and white terrazzo. Have fun with your guests as you invite them to find the powder room, tucked behind a hidden door.
A custom designed/built steel/white oak handrail leads one up to the 2nd floor where curved walls focus towards the primary suite. The primary bedroom is filled with natural light from a huge, North facing window. The primary bathroom has a double vanity, clad in walnut and Zermatt quartzite floating over a terrazzo floor. The curved wall wetroom hugs a soaking tub and has double shower heads.
The third floor has vaulted ceilings and a commanding view towards the South and downtown views towards the West from a small gameroom/lounge. The 2nd and 3rd bedrooms are both on this floor, along with a playful secondary bathroom, clad in colorful tiles and cabinets.
Kitchenaid appliances, hand selected, custom and locally made cabinets, spray foam insulation, 17 seer HVAC, vertical grain hemlock soffits, metal roof, white oak floors (2nd/3rd floors)
