2009 Apricot Glen Dr, Austin, TX 78746

A charming primarily one-story with a large bonus room upstairs is located in Bee Cave Woods in the coveted Eanes school district. This special home, beautifully maintained by one owner for over 40 years, is an ideal property for anyone looking for a simple lifestyle in a prime Austin location or looking to expand the home’s footprint on a tranquil tree-lined lot. While the home’s 3-bedroom, 2-bath floor plan is lovely on its own, with its Texas limestone fireplace, craftsman French doors, and classical tongue-and-groove ceilings, the bonus room upstairs provides additional space for a private home office, or for guest quarters, or even a workout space with ample storage. Perhaps the most intriguing feature of this home is the potential for a complete buildout of the second story that would not only significantly increase the square footage but would likely also provide gorgeous city views. Located in walking distance to Cedar Creek Elementary and Hill Country Middle Schools and just minutes from downtown, the options this wonderful home presents are at the heart of its unique value.

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.
