About This Home
Situated in the heart of Austin’s Woodhaven neighborhood in Eanes ISD, 1705 Barn Swallow offers an exceptional opportunity to create a custom home on a spacious lot. One of the most widely loved benefits of this neighborhood is that Cedar Creek Elementary School, Hill Country Middle School and Westlake Highschool are just a short walk away! The property currently features an existing residence, providing a prime setting for a new vision to take shape. With its elevated position, a thoughtfully designed second story could possibly capture beautiful views of Downtown Austin, blending city skyline scenery with the quiet charm of a well-established neighborhood. Residents of Woodhaven also enjoy mature trees, peaceful streets, and an unbeatable location just minutes from Downtown Austin, Barton Springs, Zilker Park, and South Lamar’s dining and entertainment. A rare chance to secure a generous homesite in one of Austin’s most coveted central communities—ready for your next build.
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.
