Father’s Day is this weekend! We recognize the importance for dad to have a room or retreat that is just for him. In honor of all the fathers out there, here are a few spaces we’ve created in our Austin luxury real estate, specifically for the man of the house.

The Trophy Room: This room is more than just a place to mount trophies; it also has a full bar, locked glass rifle display case, bathroom, fireplace and large TV. This room is a comfortable retreat and an interesting entertaining area. The Summer Kitchen is just outside through the sliding patio doors!

The Music Room: Created as a loft that overlooks a two-story study, this room is a welcome haven for the man who loves to tinker with guitars and other musical instruments. A fun space made specifically to the criteria of our client.

Being one of the top custom Texas home builders in the Austin area means that we take the time to learn about your lifestyle and help you design a space that makes Father’s Day, every day! We’d love to discuss your custom home ideas and show you how we can turn them into reality.
