$1,395,000 - 313 W 17th Street 1404, Austin

Twenty-eight stories tall and two blocks from the Capitol, The Linden didn't just find prime real estate, it created it. This is the first luxury residential tower to claim this stretch of downtown, where the State Capitol, the University of Texas, and the city's Arts District all sit within easy walking distance. Step off the elevator and the building announces itself immediately: travertine floors, concealed lighting, and a curated gallery of commissioned art turn the common spaces into something closer to a museum than a lobby. It's the kind of building people point at from the street and now, one you could actually call home. Among The Linden's seven floor plans, No. 1404 stands apart for one simple reason: the kitchen. Its own listing materials call it the largest of its type in the tower, and one look tells you why. A full set of German-engineered Bosch appliances sits inside custom cabinetry with the clean lines Rhode Partners carried throughout the building. A gallery-quality backdrop built to let the art, and the cook, take center stage. At 1,583 interior square feet (1,648 total), this two-bedroom-plus-den layout gives you room to actually entertain, without ever tipping into excess for its own sake. Both bedrooms are true suites with walls of glass, private baths, generous walk-in closets — the kind of layout that makes a case for itself the moment you walk in. Whether it's two people who simply want space to spread out, or a couple who regularly hosts, this floor plan was built for exactly that. Two reserved parking spaces and a private, air-conditioned 72-square-foot storage. An entire tenth floor is dedicated to resort-caliber amenities. 65-foot lap pool & cold plunge - Indoor/outdoor fitness studio & sauna - Private dining & conference room - Resident lounge & co-working space - Club room & curated art gallery - Outdoor kitchen & dog park with wash station - 24-hour concierge & controlled access - Two blocks to UT campus and the Capitol complex.
