Description
Welcome to this exceptional Westlake Highlands property, boasting unparalleled panoramic views that extend for miles from every room. Situated at one of the highest elevations in Eanes, this .62-acre lot offers sweeping vistas to the east and towards Mount Bonnell Downtown Austin, showcasing the iconic skyline. The property presents a multitude of possibilities – whether you choose to renovate the existing 1-story home or embark on a new construction project to bring your unique vision to life. Perched at one of the highest points in Westlake, this rare gem in Travis County offers a tranquil setting away from the western sun, with refreshing breezes prevailing. The backyard’s elevated position is ideal for a stunning negative edge pool, creating a serene oasis for relaxation and entertainment. The permitting process in Travis County and the Highlands is notably more streamlined compared to the City of Austin or Westlake, providing a hassle-free experience for potential buyers. The existing home features an inviting open floorplan, with each room offering breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape. The expansive tiger-wood deck is perfect for hosting gatherings, while the custom kitchen is a chef’s dream, designed by Kent Barnes and equipped with St Charles cabinets, double ovens, a gas cooktop, warming drawer, wine fridge, and high-end sub-zero appliances. The family room showcases a striking rock wall with a cozy fireplace, and the study opens up to a sunroom or workout area. Each bedroom is thoughtfully designed to capture canyon views, with vaulted ceilings and doors that lead out to the backyard. The home also has a circle drive with a pull through garage and large attic space. Additionally, the sellers can provide existing plans for a 2-story residence designed by architect Ben May, offering a glimpse into the endless possibilities for this remarkable property.
