12417 River Bnd Unit #2, Austin, TX 78732

Prime Lake Austin access with part ownership of the 2 acre private water front park and double-decker boat dock with lift included! Relaxed living at 12417 River Bnd #2 in the Freund Sleepy Hollow subdivision. Situated on a private 0.31-acre lot just a short walk or golf cart ride from Lake Austin, this three-bedroom, two-bathroom home gives your lake days an effortless head start. Located near the world-renowned Lake Austin Spa Resort, the property is built around comfort and gathering and the ultimate outdoor lifestyle.

Inside, the home opens into a layout crafted specifically for hosting. An expansive dining room easily seats a crowd and connects directly to the kitchen and breakfast nook, flowing into the main living area where a classic stone fireplace creates a warm focal point and easy sightlines. A main-level bedroom and full bathroom offer great flexibility. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite features a private ensuite bath, three closets, and its own balcony capturing Hill Country and water views, alongside a second upstairs bedroom.

Outdoor living spaces abound throughout the property. A screened front porch with a porch swing and a covered back deck stretch the living area outside, while the wide lawn—fully enclosed with black wrought-iron fencing—offers generous space for pets, play, and gatherings.

Enjoy a relaxed lifestyle backed by top-rated Leander ISD schools (River Ridge Elementary, Canyon Ridge Middle, and Vandegrift High School), with nearby shopping and dining off Quinlan Park Rd and RR 620. Sold as-is with full seller disclosure—a rare complete package with private Lake Austin boathouse access. Golf cart, boat and accessories can covey with proper offer.

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.
