Fourteen thousand nine hundred sixteen Flat Top Ranch Road sits on 175 feet of Lake Austin waterfront, one of the rarest configurations in the gated Bellagio enclave within Steiner Ranch. The home commands 2.552 acres positioned at the road's end, which means the front yard opens to designated green space while the rear overlooks the lake and the protected Balcones Canyonlands Preserve across the water.

Water defines every moment here. The master suite, guest bedroom, and study occupy the main level, allowing you to wake to the gentle motion of light across the water. The manicured lawn slopes directly to the shoreline where a two-slip boat dock topped with a covered party deck becomes your gathering point. From there, the lake stretches unobstructed; the preserve's tree line on the far shore stays frozen in place. A heated pool with swim-up bar, separate hot tub, fire pit, and koi pond with waterfall create layers of outdoor living that flow seamlessly between the house and water's edge.

Inside, the 5,372-square-foot stone residence (built 2010) holds multiple living areas and a flexible floor plan. Two additional guest suites and a game room occupy the upper level. Granite counters, beamed ceilings, recessed lighting, and a wet bar frame the primary entertainment zones. The kitchen includes a gas cooktop, built-in oven, and wine refrigerator. These details support the lifestyle, not overshadow it.

Steiner Ranch itself remains one of Austin's most established waterfront communities. The property falls within Leander ISD: Steiner Ranch Elementary, Canyon Ridge Middle, and Vandegrift High School serve the neighborhood. The gated community provides controlled access while maintaining direct proximity to downtown Austin via Loop 360 and US 183. Major employers in the technology corridor around North Austin sit under 20 minutes away.

The home has been recently painted and lightly updated, sitting at $7.00 million ($1,302 per square foot). At 15 days on market, this waterfront position in Bellagio represents a specific moment in Austin's luxury market where geography, privacy, and lake access align. Living here means mornings with water sounds, afternoons hosting from the boat dock, and years watching the same preserve unfold across the lake.

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.
