13001 Flowering Senna BND, Austin, TX 78738

The Hillside is a highly sought after gated area in Spanish Oaks, with only a few lots remaining. Sitting adjacent to the 16th green, enjoy beautiful views of the Private Golf Course and Texas Hill Country. There are currently five approved builders and 15 approved architects for The Hillside. No time frame to build.

The Spanish Oaks neighborhood offers 24/7 manned gate Security, Private Spanish Oaks Golf Club/Course, Miles of Hike and Bike Trails, a fully stocked Fish Camp and Pool Pavilion. Austin Tennis Academy is also located just outside the community gates and although it's not included as a direct amenity, membership is available. In addition to community amenities Spanish Oaks also offers Lake Travis ISD as well as several private school options within 10 miles of the community gates.

Nearly four-tenths of an acre in Spanish Oaks backing directly to the golf course at the 16th green, 13001 Flowering Senna BND offers views across the private fairway and into the Texas Hill Country landscape that stretches toward the horizon. This is unimproved land in The Hillside section of Spanish Oaks, one of the few remaining lots in this gated neighborhood that treats the Hill Country terrain as the foundation for everything built here.

The land itself commands attention. You're looking at a property that captures the openness and light that make this part of Travis County feel so removed from Austin proper, even though you're close enough to reach downtown in about thirty minutes. The lot backs to golf course green space, meaning that buffer of open land becomes part of your view and your feeling of space. Native Hill Country trees dot the property, providing structure without crowding the horizon. This is the kind of acreage where you can actually breathe.

The gated community of Spanish Oaks operates around this relationship between landscape and living. Twenty-four-seven manned security controls access through a single gate. The private golf club anchors the neighborhood, its course weaving through the subdivisions. Miles of hike and bike trails give you another way to move through the terrain. A fish camp and pool pavilion sit as gathering points. It's a lifestyle built for people who value space and privacy but don't want to be isolated.

Schools serving the area include Lake Pointe Elementary, Bee Cave Middle School, and Lake Travis High School through Lake Travis ISD, all of which serve families in this part of Travis County. The neighborhood also sits within ten miles of private school options if that direction interests you.

For the actual building phase, five approved builders and fifteen approved architects already work within The Hillside, giving you established options when you're ready to move forward. There's no time frame requirement, meaning you can buy this land and sit with the views, let the property settle into your plans, and decide when the moment feels right to build.

At $985,000, you're acquiring not just a lot but the privilege of designing your shelter within a landscape that's been here far longer than any house. The Hill Country terrain, the golf course views, the gated security, the community infrastructure, and the Lake Travis ISD schools create a foundation where a home becomes secondary to the environment it sits within.

Spanish Oaks has one of only three Bobby Weed-designed golf courses in Texas, and membership is capped well below the capacity most private clubs allow. That intentional scarcity defines the community's approach: fewer homes, larger lots, wider buffers between neighbors, and a club experience that prioritizes quality of play over volume. The result functions more like a private retreat than a subdivision.

The community is located in the Bee Cave corridor of 78738, west of Austin along Highway 71. Downtown follows 71 east to MoPac, about twenty-five to thirty minutes in normal traffic. Hill Country Galleria is roughly ten minutes away. Trattoria Lisina offers Italian food and a wine cave experience near Driftwood. SP Brazilian does churrascaria. The Gramercy has become a date-night go-to. Steiner Ranch Steakhouse covers the classic category, Cafe Blue does seafood, and Tadashi handles Japanese.

Homes are luxury estates on large lots, with native limestone, standing-seam metal roofs, and expansive outdoor living areas taking advantage of canyon views. Custom builds are the norm. Architectural review maintains cohesive character without forcing uniformity. Most homes range from 4,000 to over 8,000 square feet on lots starting at one acre, extending past two acres for canyon rim and golf course positions. Prices begin around $2 million and climb past $6 million. Inventory turns slowly because most owners are long-term residents.

Spanish Oaks is served by Lake Travis ISD. Bee Cave Elementary is the primary feeder and reflects the small, well-funded campus parents here expect. Students move to Bee Cave Middle School and Lake Travis High School, recognized for academics and athletics. The district has invested heavily in facilities and technology, and the tax base from communities like Spanish Oaks supports that investment.

Mornings often start on the course, where the first tee fills before 8 AM. The Bobby Weed layout plays through native terrain with canyon crossings that are as scenic as they are challenging. The clubhouse hosts dinners and member events. Beyond the gates, Milton Reimers Ranch provides miles of mountain biking along the Pedernales River. Hamilton Pool is a short drive southwest. Pace Bend Park on Lake Travis offers lake access. The lifestyle is private but not isolated, with club events and school functions keeping the calendar full.

Spanish Oaks competes with Barton Creek, Rob Roy, and The Hills of Lakeway. Barton Creek offers larger scale with more amenities and a shorter commute. Rob Roy provides Eanes ISD and established acreage closer to the city. The Hills has similar pricing and Lake Travis ISD but a larger community. Spanish Oaks differentiates through exclusivity and golf quality. The Bobby Weed course is widely considered one of the best private courses in the Hill Country, and limited membership means you never wait for a tee time.

Spanish Oaks is for buyers who want a private club lifestyle in the Texas Hill Country with a world-class golf course at the center. It fits families who value Lake Travis ISD, retirees who want serious golf every morning, and anyone where privacy and quality matter more than proximity.
