103 Yaupon Valley Rd, Austin, TX 78746

Rare wooded homesite in the heart of West Lake Hills—0.51 acres tucked beneath a canopy of mature live oaks on one of the area's quietly held streets. The setting feels like a private treetop sanctuary, offering both seclusion and presence, with a natural sense of retreat.

Ideally located just minutes from Redbud Trail, Westlake Drive and downtown Austin. The property's natural topography creates a beautiful opportunity to build something truly special while embracing the character of the land. Zoned to Eanes ISD—Eanes Elementary, Hill Country Middle, and Westlake High School. Boundary survey, tree survey, and topographic survey available. Approved architectural plans and renderings by Jay Corder AIA available upon request. Buyer to independently verify all information.

Westlake Hills is an incorporated city in Austin's 78746 ZIP code, five minutes west of downtown via Bee Caves Road. Eanes ISD - ranked #1 in Texas by Niche 2026 - draws most buyers. Median home price $2.4M, with estates from $1.2M updates to $10M+ hilltop compounds.

Roughly 1,000 total homes sit on wooded lots averaging half an acre to two acres, spread across the hills south of the Colorado River. Lost Creek, Davenport Ranch, The Oaks, and Bee Caves Woods each have a different character - from 1970s ranches on established lots to new-build Hill Country Contemporary estates with 20-foot ceilings and limestone facades.

The housing stock is in a generational transition. Original 1970s-80s ranch homes sell as teardowns at $1-2M for land alone, replaced by $3-8M contemporary builds. At any given time, 25-30 homes are actively listed. Inventory is tight, and a meaningful share of deals happen off-market through agent networks.

What defines daily life here: morning coffee at Swedish Hill, school drop-off at Eanes Elementary or Bridge Point, a trail run at Wild Basin Preserve, and dinner at Sway or Las Palomas without crossing MoPac. This is a quiet neighborhood built around schools and outdoor access, not nightlife or walkable retail. The people who live here chose it for exactly that trade-off.
