A home of timeless charm, creative legacy, and modern sophistication—1500 Northwood is one of Pemberton Heights’ most special offerings. Thoughtfully reimagined by the renowned McWalters Collaborative, this residence blends the elegance of historic Austin architecture with contemporary livability, all while honoring its distinguished past as the former home of Mary Willis Walker, the award-winning mystery novelist.
With its original façade and manicured landscaping, the home preserves its historic character, while inside, every inch has been redefined for modern function and everyday elegance. Vaulted ceilings, curated finishes, and a free-flowing open layout set the stage for both relaxed living and grand entertaining.
At the heart of the home, the U-shaped kitchen is an entertainer’s dream. It boasts abundant quartz counters, custom cabinetry, and premium appliances—all arranged for ideal party flow. Whether hosting an intimate gathering or a lively soirée, this kitchen offers multiple prep and serving zones with seamless access to the living and dining spaces, keeping guests engaged and the energy effortlessly dynamic.
The primary suite is a true retreat, discreetly tucked at the back of the home for privacy. It features a spa-inspired bathroom with a luxurious walk-in shower and a stylish dressing room that also functions beautifully as an office or reading nook.
Beyond the main residence, the guest quarters above the two-car garage offer independent living with their own charm. Complete with a screened-in porch, a dedicated office with built-ins, and a covered flex space below, this structure is ideal for guests, creative pursuits, or a separate work-from-home environment.
The outdoor areas are intentionally sectioned into lush garden rooms and peaceful sitting areas, each space maximizing the use of the lot with a thoughtful layout and curated landscaping. Every corner invites relaxation, reflection, or entertaining, reinforcing the home's reputation as both a private oasis and a place to gather.
Located in the prestigious heart of Central Austin, this home is a rare opportunity to own a piece of the city’s cultural and architectural history—perfectly adapted for modern life, with the kind of story only Pemberton Heights can tell.
