Property Overview

This one-acre sanctuary on Lakewood Drive in Austin, TX centers on a private stretch of Bull Creek, creating a nature-immersed setting that feels worlds away from city life. Built in 1971 and recently updated, the 3,812-square-foot home balances environmental consciousness with comfortable living—natural wood floors, wool and seagrass carpeting, and stone and wood siding throughout reflect a commitment to sustainable materials. Arched openings flood the interiors with light, while a screened rear porch transforms outdoor dining into an everyday experience rather than an occasional feature.

The floor plan prioritizes functionality across two stories. The main level holds a dedicated home office with ensuite bathroom, while four generously sized bedrooms occupy the second floor with substantial storage and flex space. A steam shower in the primary suite and multiple dining and living areas support the home's easy-living philosophy. Energy-efficient systems, including central air and heat, serve the property, which sits on level, heavily treed terrain facing north with creek views from multiple vantage points.

At $759 per square foot, this property captures the rare combination of creek frontage, mature landscaping, and thoughtful design in one of Austin's most desirable established neighborhoods. The private gated approach, four parking spaces, and fenced yard complete a residence that genuinely prioritizes both privacy and connection to the natural landscape surrounding it.

Vox Real Estate Insight

The Bull Creek frontage and mature tree canopy are what set this property apart in the Austin market—this is the kind of serene setting that typically requires venturing much further outside the city. From Vox Real Estate's perspective, homes with water features and significant acreage this close to established Austin neighborhoods represent a vanishing commodity, especially one that's been thoughtfully maintained with sustainability and livability in mind.

Agent Description

Spanning an acre that includes a private stretch of Bull Creek, Lakewood was inspired by nature and executed with easy living design. You see it in the way the arched openings move light through the house, and how the screened porch makes outdoor dining feel less like a feature, and more like a daily ritual. From the moment you walk in, there's a calm to the place: a quiet, grounded energy that turns the home into a retreat from the noise of everyday life. Natural, environmentally friendly materials are used throughout, from wooden floors downstairs to wool and seagrass carpet upstairs. Treetops at every window, thoughtful touches like a steam shower in the primary, and a functional flow throughout make living easy - your four bedrooms span the second floor (with ample storage and flex space), and an additional home office/study with ensuite bathroom is located on the main floor. But the real story is outside your doorstep. The property sits on a spacious acre lot, and the backyard leads directly to a private stretch of Bull Creek — complete with ancient trails and active waterfalls. This is a creek lifestyle: cast a line and fish with your kids, wander the trails on a slow morning, cool off in the water when the Texas heat sets in. Nature is your backyard. And yet, for all the seclusion, you're not far from anything. The acreage, the trees, and the water make it feel like a secluded estate, but downtown is less than twenty minutes out. Twenty-five to the airport. Close enough that nothing feels like a sacrifice. Far enough that coming home feels like something. An additional three acres of neighboring land are also available for purchase - please inquire for more details.
