Description

Perched on one of the highest points of Tarrytown, 2216 Matthews is one of only eight properties whose land is divided from Lake Austin by Austin’s most exclusive street, Scenic Drive. This amazing architectural gem was designed in the mid 1960s by the great Texas modernist architect, Bud Oglesby. Oglesby is known by many as the “architect’s architect” and trained many of Austin’s most highly acclaimed talent, included Dick Clark.

You’ll be blown away by the contemporary style boasting an interior brick courtyard, original aggregate stone floors, walls of glass and an open staircase pushing light and shadow into every room. Its bones are amazing, the architecture clearly ahead of its time.

Not many have the chance to experience Tarrytown living like this. 2216 Matthews Drive offers arguably the best view in all of Tarrytown -- 180 degree views of the winding beauty of Lake Austin under the canopy of countless gorgeous specimen oak trees. Additionally, you’ll love the walkability to restaurants and coffee shops down the street on Lake Austin.

The opportunities are endless with what this property has to offer. Matthews is ready for a modern renovation to add square footage and change the footprint or you can simply take advantage of this amazing original structure. Come explore what’s behind these doors of one of Tarrytown’s most hidden gems and make this your own one of kind Lake Austin retreat.
