At $621 per square foot, 311 Ridgewood Rd offers 3,581 square feet on a 0.2953-acre lot in Westlake Hills, a rare amount of space this close to central Austin. At 311 Ridgewood Rd, the real draw is flexibility: a 1983 single family residence with 4 bedrooms, 5 full baths, 1 half bath, and a floor plan that gives buyers both immediate comfort and clear upside.

This part of 78746 works because it keeps you close to the city without giving up neighborhood feel. Ridgewood Road sits near Rollingwood Park and feeds into key routes like Stratford Drive, Red Bud Trail, Bee Caves Road, and MoPac, so downtown Austin, Lady Bird Lake, and major medical centers are all easy to reach. For buyers who care about school access, the home is in Austin ISD and zoned to Barton Hills Elementary, O Henry Middle, and Austin High School, three campuses that matter to families watching both daily logistics and long term resale.

Inside, the square footage is used well. The main level includes a primary suite, multiple living areas, a private office with full bath, formal dining, laundry, and a kitchen built for real use, not just looks, with a Wolf range, Sub-Zero refrigerator, custom island, breakfast area, and strong storage. A stone fireplace anchors one living space, while tall ceilings, parquet floors, and large glass doors bring in natural light and connect the interior to the back decking and fenced yard. Upstairs, three secondary bedrooms each have their own bath, built-in desk areas, and good closet space, which is increasingly hard to find in older West Austin inventory.

The lot size matters here. Nearly 0.30 acres gives you breathing room for outdoor living, future landscape changes, or a more private play space than many comparable homes in close-in neighborhoods. Practical updates also help, including a 2025 roof, new hardiplank, fresh exterior paint, irrigation, xeriscaped landscaping, circular drive, and a 1-car garage. With 67 days on market, buyers have a chance to look past surface preferences and focus on the fundamentals: location, school path, lot size, and layout.

For someone who wants Austin access, Austin ISD schools, and the ability to personalize a substantial home in Westlake Hills, this is the kind of address that can age well both as a lifestyle decision and as a long-term value play.

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.
