1710 Mount Larson Rd, Austin, TX 78746

A Private Westlake Hills Sanctuary in the Sky

Bathed in golden light and perched high above the hills of Westlake, Sky House lives up to its name. From nearly every room, panoramic views stretch across the treetops and rolling hills, offering a rare sense of total escape—just minutes from downtown Austin and within the acclaimed Eanes ISD.

Crafted with enduring materials and timeless vision, the home reveals itself in layers of warm detail—from the barrel-vaulted stone entryway to hand-laid limestone, natural wood accents, and three inviting fireplaces. Expansive living spaces flow effortlessly to multiple covered patios, each framing the landscape like a living canvas.

The main level lives like a single-story home, centered on ease and elegance. The primary suite is both functional and indulgent, with two walk-in closets, a fireplace, private gym space, and direct access to a secluded hot tub courtyard and a peaceful balcony retreat. A second en suite bedroom on this level offers additional flexibility for guests or extended living.

Downstairs, the home expands to meet every need—with three more bedrooms, a spacious game room, a creative or study nook, and a second outdoor patio that mirrors the stunning views above. Whether for family, entertaining, or quiet reflection, the spaces are designed to adapt and inspire.

Outside, the resort-style pool feels suspended in the trees, featuring a cascading waterfall, hidden grotto, and elevated lounge deck. Lush landscaping and custom stonework anchor the property in nature, while the oversized lot provides space to imagine—whether it’s a future guest house, studio, or garden retreat.

Privately set in the hills of Westlake, Sky House is a rare architectural sanctuary where warmth, privacy, and natural beauty converge.

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.
