Property Description
This is the kind of property people whisper about: a privileged, virtually unrestricted 2.5-acre hilltop above Lake Travis with two expansive view decks delivering cinematic lake and Hill Country panoramas. No HOA, no permits required for STRs — you have rare, literal freedom to use the land as you please. Connected to city water, equipped with high-speed internet, and a new septic system in 2025, it's as turnkey as it is timeless.
40 minutes from downtown Austin, 15 minutes to Cedar Park (Costco, HEB, Whole Foods, restaurants & shopping), and 5 minutes to Lago Vista (Lucky Rabbit, Boat Ramps & Parks), it's secluded without being distant. Step inside the stone-clad home and the horizon becomes your interior design: six picture windows and vaulted ceilings flood rooms with light while framing day-to-night views that change like a private performance. The updated kitchen, two bedrooms, two marble-topped baths, and a hidden Murphy bed marry luxury with practical flexibility for guests or family.
A detached 200 sq ft studio with A/C and its own two-car carport is a private sanctuary—office, art or music studio, or quiet guest quarters—giving you the power to separate work and life without leaving home. Secure black-metal fencing, dual gated entries, and graceful oaks provide privacy and permanence.
Curated landscaping, raised gardens alive with butterflies and hummingbirds, and ample space to build another residence or multi-home compound complete the picture. Properties that combine these views, this level of freedom, and this proximity to Austin are effectively irreplaceable.
