1802 Mistywood Dr, Austin, TX 78746

This is a rare opportunity for a wonderful home, in a very sought after location that is walking distance to the highly rated Cedar Creek Elementary School and Hill Middle School; located within the Eanes ISD. You are greeted by a large, flat front yard and striking curb appeal on this well maintained home wrapped in timeless native Texas limestone. As you enter the property, you are greeted with an oversized courtyard that flows through the sturdy double front doors. Once inside, high ceilings and walls of windows bathe the interior spaces with natural light. In the heart of the home, you will find the large living space with vaulted/beamed ceilings and a great connection to the backyard and nature through the nice, bright windows. The fun kitchen area is at the back corner of the house and is well positioned between the dining space and glass French doors that lead out to the huge back deck. The oversized primary bedroom has an ensuite bathroom and is spacious enough to comfortably have an additional living space or home office. The additional bedrooms are located on the opposite side of the house, with a freshly updated secondary bathroom, and strategically taking advantage of the classic mother-in-law floorplan. There is also a large two car garage that enters the house through a utility room that contains a sink and additional storage cabinets. The spacious lot is very level, and usable, which can be hard to find in this neighborhood; and the additional bonus is the privacy that is provided by the creek and mature trees immediately off of the back of the property. The location is second to none, and less than a mile to the neighborhood Eanes schools, retail options, doctors offices, Barton Creek Mall, and just 5 minutes to Zilker Park and downtown. This is a price point that is hard to find for a good house, located on a nice flat lot in the Eanes school district, only minutes from downtown. Great as is, but also interesting potential to expand.

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.
