Set on a quiet cul-de-sac in Steiner Ranch’s exclusive gated UT section, this 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath home commands attention with expansive views of the 11th tee on the UT golf course. A pebble-finished driveway leads to a 2-car garage alongside a converted 3rd bay workshop, with its own a/c, for hobbies or extra storage. Inside, rich wood floors in the formal living and dining spaces create an inviting foundation. A private office with french doors offers focus and separation, while dual staircases, one at the entry, another off the kitchen, ensure smooth flow throughout. The recently updated kitchen is a statement of both style and substance: a deep farmhouse sink pairs with a brushed gold faucet and cabinet hardware, while a new gas cooktop with gold knobs anchors the space. White quartz counters and backsplash, flecked with gold accents, catch the light under custom fixtures, blending modern elegance with warm tones. Beyond the kitchen, the backyard unfolds into an entertainer’s dream: an extended flagstone patio covered by a pergola, outfitted with a built-in grilling area, plus bar-height seating and generous lounging areas. From here, the sweeping golf course vistas set a tranquil backdrop, making outdoor gatherings effortless. The primary suite is a retreat with tray ceilings, a bay window framing the golf course, dual vanities on opposite sides of the bathroom, a soaking tub, and a frameless shower. A roomy walk-in closet and seating area complete this private haven. Upstairs, a large game room opens onto a balcony overlooking the course, expanding living space with fresh air and stunning views. Throughout the home, thoughtful design touches add character; arched doorways, wood flooring, and tray and coffered ceilings. The laundry room’s sink and storage add everyday convenience. Located in Steiner Ranch, served by top-rated Leander ISD, this home delivers quiet cul-de-sac living, unmatched golf course frontage, and sophisticated updates that set it apart.

Steiner Ranch is a 4,600-acre master-planned community in 78732, built along the bluffs above Lake Austin and Lake Travis. Median home price $800K. Leander ISD schools (Laura Bush Elementary, Canyon Ridge Middle, Vandegrift High), three resort-style community pools, 20+ miles of trails, and private Lake Austin access via the Lake Club.

Around 6,500 homes across multiple sections, built from the late 1990s through today. Housing ranges from $500K townhomes to $2M+ estates backing to the UT Golf Club (Roy Bechtol championship course, 7,412 yards). The community is fully built out in most sections, with limited new construction remaining.

Daily life revolves around being outside. Trail runners hit J Canyon and Powerline Hill loops before work. The Lake Club gives residents private boat launch access with eleven day-use docks on Lake Austin. Lake Travis is five minutes from the community entrance. Steiner Ranch Steakhouse — panoramic lake views, live music seven nights a week — is the social center.

What makes Steiner Ranch the value play for lake-adjacent living: resort-level amenities at a fraction of Lake Austin waterfront pricing, strong schools, and a community infrastructure (pools, trails, golf, lake access) that most master-planned developments can't match. The tradeoff is the 620 commute — 25-35 minutes to downtown depending on traffic.
