In a remote corner outside Austin, Texas, lies a property that defied the wrath of a wildfire, paving the way for the creation of a magnificent 4-bedroom, 2800 sq ft prefab home by Aura Prefabs. This house, priced at a cool $900,000, stands as a testament to resilience and vision. With its metal siding, pre-burned wood accents, and strategic rock perimeter, this home is not just a shelter but a fortress against the elements.
Step inside, and you're greeted by a grand entrance, a chic coffee bar, and a kitchen that would make any chef weak at the knees. The kitchen boasts a stunning backsplash window, ample storage, and a spacious island perfect for culinary adventures. The living area seamlessly blends indoor and outdoor living, with sliding glass doors offering a tantalizing view of the plunge pool and fire pit beyond.
The bedroom wings, each with its own en-suite bathroom, provide a luxurious retreat for the homeowners. Surprises abound in this home, from a cozy family room to a well-appointed office with a view. The laundry room is a godsend for those who appreciate organization, while the main bedroom with its vaulted ceiling exudes opulence and comfort. Kerry Tarnow's tour of this prefab masterpiece leaves viewers in awe of the meticulous design and thoughtful details that make this house a true gem in the Texan wilderness.
