THE HOME, IN THE LISTING AGENT’S WORDS

A closer look.

A rare single-story retreat tucked beneath heritage oaks in the heart of West Lake Hills — thoughtfully updated and ready for its next chapter. Set on a private .55-acre lot at the end of a circular drive, this 5-bedroom, 3-bath home offers 2,725 square feet of easy one-level living. Beamed, cathedral and vaulted ceilings give the main rooms real scale, anchored by a wood-burning fireplace, while reclaimed tobacco pine floors bring warmth and patina you simply cannot replicate. The kitchen is finished with quartz counters, a breakfast bar, built-in double ovens and generous storage, opening to a dining room sized for real gatherings. A second living area with a marble-topped bar makes entertaining effortless. The primary suite is a true retreat, set apart from the secondary bedrooms with high ceilings, a walk-in closet, and sliders leading to a deck just off the bedroom with oak canopy view. The en suite bath is finished with a dual vanity and a separate walk-in shower. Recent improvements mean the work is already done: fresh interior paint throughout, new carpet in three bedrooms (2026), a new garage roof (2026), house roof (2016), replacement windows and doors at the front (2020) and rear (2024), updated light fixtures throughout, and both HVAC systems have been replaced in recent years. Outside, mature heavy trees deliver genuine seclusion and layered Hill Country and treetop views, with a screened porch, multiple patios and composite decks made for shaded Texas evenings. A detached two-car garage with built-in cabinetry, workshop space and epoxy flooring adds rare functionality, plus ample parking on the circular drive. All of it inside the City of West Lake Hills and zoned to acclaimed Eanes ISD — feeding Eanes Elementary, Hill Country Middle and Westlake High — with downtown Austin, Lake Austin and Westlake shopping and dining just minutes away.
