West Lake Hills, TX 78746 (Travis County)
About this property
Tucked beneath a canopy of mature oaks on 1.61 private acres, this custom Russell Parker Homes estate has remained in the hands of a single family since its completion in 1988. Quietly held off market for decades, the property presents a rare opportunity to own a substantial West Lake Hills residence with privacy, land, and timeless construction just minutes from Downtown Austin. Spanning 3,485 square feet, the home was thoughtfully designed with generous proportions, enduring architectural detail, and a layout that balances everyday livability with effortless entertaining. A formal entry opens into expansive light-filled living spaces anchored by a fireplace and framed by Hill Country views. Multiple living and dining areas connect naturally to the kitchen, creating an easy flow throughout the home while still maintaining defined spaces. The primary suite is positioned in its own private wing, offering separation from the secondary bedrooms and main gathering areas. Large windows throughout the residence draw in natural light and showcase the surrounding trees and landscape from nearly every room. Outside, expansive decks overlook a private pool and the surrounding acreage, creating a setting that feels remarkably secluded for its location. The grounds offer a rare combination of usable land, mature trees, and long-range quiet that is increasingly difficult to find in West Lake Hills. Located within acclaimed Eanes ISD and zoned to Eanes Independent School District schools including Eanes Elementary School, Hill Country Middle School, and Westlake High School. Convenient to Downtown Austin, Lake Austin, shopping, dining, and the natural beauty that defines Westlake living.
