Agent Description

A once-in-a-generation opportunity in original Rob Roy, one of Westlake’s most prestigious gated enclaves within Eanes ISD.

The home also features an oversized three-car garage with a work area, along with a large motor court and circular drive that welcome visitors to the front of the home, where some of the most breathtaking views are revealed.
