Description Website: https://www.monarchrollingwood.com/Where architecture meets the Austin skyline. Welcome to The Monarch—a landmark residence set on what was once part of the original Hatley estate, the historic founding grounds of Rollingwood. From this commanding vantage point—the most sought-after in the neighborhood—the entire city unfolds before you. The downtown skyline rises in full panoramic view, with Lake Austin glimmering alongside. The vista isn’t distant or abstract; it’s immediate, cinematic, alive. The rhythm of the city feels close enough to touch—you can even see the main stage of Austin City Limits. Designed by renowned architect Christopher Sanders, The Monarch stands as his final residential work of art—a vision realized through light, proportion, and purpose. His signature folded-hinge design opens, angles, and unfolds to the views like wings, allowing every upstairs bedroom and living space to look directly into the heart of downtown. The skyline becomes a living backdrop, shifting with the light of day and the pulse of the city at night. Inside, the home unfolds with quiet confidence. Volume and warmth define the main living spaces, where walls of glass pull the city directly indoors. Expansive rooms open to terraces and outdoor lounges, blurring the line between interior architecture and the landscape beyond. Natural materials, layered textures, and sculptural lighting create a sense of modern calm—an atmosphere that is at once elevated and deeply livable. On the lower level, a private wellness retreat offers a complete sanctuary: an infrared and hot-rock sauna, fitness space, and room designed for meditation or restoration. A separate poolside casita with its own kitchenette and laundry provides total independence for guests, long stays, or creative work. The floor plan is both functional and flexible, with the ability to expand to additional bedrooms without compromising flow or design integrity. Outdoors, the experience continues in eve
