Incredible 'sea urchin' house hits the market for $3 million
An international home for sale will stun with its very unique design.
The three-bedroom, two-bathroom property at 819 Mariner in Lakeway, Texas, is aptly called the Sand Dollar House due to its appearance from aerial view.
Listing photos reveal just how much the property resembles a sea urchin from above with its tear-dropped skylights.
Fresh on the market, the home has a price guide of $US1.99 million ($AU2.94 million). Michelle Jones and Todd Grossman of Compass Texas are the listing agents.
The property was built in 1979 by John Covert Watson, a protégé of the late American architect Frank Lloyd Wright.
There is instant street appeal with a steel and gunite build. Gunite is a type of concrete where a blend of cement, sand and water is sprayed through a hose.
Curved white walls feature throughout the home, adding a level of intrigue at every turn.
A spiral staircase with wooden treads presents itself as a work of art.
Intricate tilework in the “round kitchen” and bathrooms add a touch of flair to the overall white aesthetic.
Very much an entertainer’s pad, sliding doors lead out to multiple balconies and patios.
The property is also surrounded by lush greenery, making it a peaceful retreat.
Views of Lake Travis can be seen from each room of the unique abode.
Agents reveal on the listing that the home has “captivated passersby for decades with its stunning location by the lake”.
