Cat Mountain is an upscale residential neighborhood perched high on the hills above Loop 360 in West Austin, offering some of the most dramatic Hill Country views in the metro area. The neighborhood takes its name from its elevated position — homes sit atop and along the ridgeline, with many properties enjoying sweeping views of the tree-covered hills, Bull Creek valley, and spectacular Hill Country sunsets. The natural setting, combined with proximity to some of Austin's best outdoor recreation, makes Cat Mountain a premier address for nature-loving families.

Homes in Cat Mountain are predominantly custom-built on large lots, with architectural styles ranging from Texas Hill Country limestone to contemporary modern designs. Many properties exceed 3,000 square feet and sit on half-acre or larger lots, providing the space and privacy that are difficult to find this close to the urban core. The neighborhood's secluded, wooded setting means wildlife sightings — deer, foxes, and a variety of birds — are common. Prices generally range from $700,000 to over $1.5 million.

Cat Mountain residents enjoy exceptional access to Bull Creek District Park, one of Austin's best swimming and hiking destinations, with its series of small waterfalls and swimming holes along the creek. Loop 360 provides scenic commuting to downtown or the Arboretum and Domain areas. The neighborhood is served by Austin ISD and is close to several private school options. For buyers who want a luxury Hill Country lifestyle with a relatively short commute to Austin's employment centers, Cat Mountain is one of the city's most compelling options.
