8721 Mountain Crest Dr doesnt just offer a place to live, it delivers a lifestyle. Whether its hosting family, giving friends a private stay, or continuing its streak as a proven income-maker, this space is as versatile as it gets. Sitting on a big corner lot in one of Austins most desirable spots, this home is a highly successful Airbnb for a reason. From the front door, the main living area makes an immediate impression. Custom accent walls bring depth and character, while high-end detailing gives the space a designer feel. The kitchen takes center stage with contemporary finishes that balance form and function. Shaker style cabinetry, upgraded counters, and generous storage set the stage for everything from casual meals to holiday feasts. The open feel makes entertaining effortless, whether guests are mingling in the kitchen, lounging in the living room, or spilling out to the backyard. The layout flows into a sunroom anchored by a fireplace. The primary suite claims the main floor, while 3 more bedrooms and 2 bathrooms upstairs give everyone their own space. You'll love the sprawling bonus room that can flip from game-day headquarters to movie-night lounge to impromptu guest quarters without missing a beat. Out back, the yard is pure entertainment gold. A massive deck spills out toward an outdoor grilling station with its own sink, while the in-ground pool glistens under the Texas sun. The cabana keeps things shady when the day heats up, and the oak tree offers its own kind of cool, rooted in character and history. And then theres the guest house; self-contained with a full kitchen, bedroom, and bathroom. Located in Austins 78735, youre close enough to the action to make last-minute dinner plans, but far enough away to feel like youve carved out your own slice of calm. Homes that can be lived in this many ways, and loved in all of them, dont come around often. The only question is how youll make it yours.
