2419 Trail Of Madrones, Austin, TX 78746

PERCHED ON ONE OF AUSTIN'S HIGHEST ELEVATIONS IN WESTLAKE HIGHLANDS, 2419 TRAIL OF MADRONES OFFERS BREATHTAKING DUAL RIDGELINE VIEWS OF MT. BONNELL and Bull Mountain, exceptional privacy, and a resort-like treehouse setting on a half-acre lot--all just 10 minutes from downtown Austin. Located in the highly acclaimed Eanes Independent School District, this fully renovated 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home blends mid-century modern architecture with clean contemporary white, grey and natural blonde finishes in a serene, tree-filled environment near Lake Austin marina, Mozart's Coffee, HEB Lake Austin, Red Bud Isle, Westlake Hills and South Lamar restaurants and shopping.

The 1,844-square-foot single-level residence underwent a comprehensive renovation in 2022, including energy-efficient windows and doors, sleek natural wood beams, modern Lueder stone pool coping, and rebuilt entertainment decks spanning the length of the home's rear exterior. Inside, a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace anchors the living room, while expansive glass doors frame views of the pool, surrounding landscape, mountains and city lights on the eastern horizon. Quartz countertops throughout, glass-front kitchen cabinetry, white and grey porcelain tile, frameless glass showers, seamless luxury plank flooring, and abundant natural light create a bright, contemporary aesthetic throughout.

Approximately 1,000 square feet of new multi-level decks and a 32' x 13' swimming pool extend the living experience outdoors. Mature heritage oaks, mountain laurels, and red crepe myrtles create a private retreat with colorful sunrises, panoramic north and eastern valley views plus twinkling city lights after dark.

Located within the ETJ rather than the City of Westlake Hills, the property may offer a more streamlined path for future expansion, renovation, or redevelopment.

2419 Trail Of Madrones stands out for its panoramic hill and skyline views, a rare advantage in Westlake Hills where topography, privacy, and school path all carry real weight in buyer decisions. Priced at $1.55 million, or $841 per square foot, this 1,844 square foot single-family residence sits on 0.512 acres in Austin 78746 within Eanes ISD, with Bridge Point, Hill Country, and Westlake in the assigned path.

This is a 3 bedroom, 2 bath, single-story home with a pool, 1 fireplace, and a 2-car garage. Built in 1972 and described in the remarks as fully renovated in 2022, it offers a combination that remains hard to find in Westlake at this price point: updated single-level living on a half-acre site with meaningful outdoor space and broad views. The remarks point to unobstructed sightlines toward Mt. Bonnell, Bull Mountain, and the northern skyline. That matters because view value in this part of the market is tied to elevation and orientation, not just interior finish.

The setting does more than create a visual advantage. The remarks describe a quiet, flat, walkable street and nearly every major living area oriented toward sunrise views, including the living room, kitchen, and primary suite. More than 1,000 square feet of decking and a custom 32 foot by 13 foot pool extend the usable footprint well beyond the house itself. Mature trees add privacy, and the lot size leaves room for a buyer who wants to study future expansion options over time.

Location leverage is also part of the equation. The remarks place the home about 10 minutes from downtown while still outside city limits, a combination that tends to attract buyers who want quick access to Austin without giving up separation and hillside character. Lake Austin Marina, Zilker Park, Westlake Hills, and Redbud Island are all cited in the listing remarks, reinforcing how this address connects to the parts of central Austin that continue to support long-term demand.

With only 1 day on market, the positioning is clear: this is a view-driven Westlake property with established Eanes ISD access, practical single-story utility, and enough land to support both immediate enjoyment and future value decisions.

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.
