Property Overview

Perched atop a quiet cul-de-sac in Northwest Hills, this nearly one-acre sanctuary commands sweeping Hill Country views while remaining minutes from downtown Austin, TX and major employment corridors. The inverted floor plan maximizes the property's elevation advantage, positioning the kitchen, living areas, and primary suite on the upper level to flood the home with natural light and panoramic vistas. Five bedrooms and three bathrooms span across two generous levels, with the lower floor offering a second living area, office/flex space, and abundant room for guests or multigenerational living arrangements.

The expansive 42,240-square-foot lot represents the true showstopper—a rare find in central Austin that delivers genuine privacy despite proximity to shopping, entertainment, and recreational amenities including trails and water access. Mature landscaping, a fenced pet area, raised garden beds, and a charming storage shed create an outdoor retreat that feels worlds away from the city. This 1977 Hill House design embraces its topography with authentic character, offering the flexibility and land ownership that today's Austin buyers increasingly seek.

Vox Residential Insight

The Northwest Hills location delivers something truly scarce in Austin's current market: nearly an acre of usable land with unobstructed views and genuine privacy within reach of everything that makes the city desirable. At $444 per square foot, this property's value centers on the lot itself rather than square footage, making it compelling for buyers prioritizing land ownership and seclusion over newer construction.

Agent Description

A rare .96 acre property in Northwest Hills offering both iconic Hill Country views and exceptional privacy. The location offers quick access to downtown, major commuter routes, upscale shopping & entertainment, the city’s professional soccer stadium, plus hiking & boating. Positioned at the top of a quiet cul de sac, this 1970s Hill House retreat embraces its elevation with an inverted layout: the kitchen, living, and primary suite sit on the upper level to capture sweeping vistas and natural light throughout the home’s main living spaces. The lower level provides flexibility with a second living area, office/flex room, four bedrooms, and a full bath—ideal for guests, creative use, or multi generational living. Outdoors, the land itself is the defining asset. The expansive lot includes a fenced area for pets, an enclosed raised bed garden, and a charming shed, all surrounded by mature landscape and a sense of seclusion rarely found in central Austin. This home is not for the buyer seeking a conventional floorplan or a fully updated showpiece. It’s for the one who values architectural character, open concept living, and the long term potential of an extraordinary lot—a buyer who recognizes opportunity where others see unconventional design. Living the view, loving the land.
