3604 Westlake Dr, Austin, TX 78746

This gorgeous contemporary Westlake home is set on ~1.2 stunning, park-like acres, surrounded by seven acres of conservation land for enhanced privacy. Lush lawns are dotted with over 60 mature oak trees and provide an idyllic setting for the sleek, elegant home. Privately gated, the grounds are designed with outdoor living in mind, with a pool and spa, a shady cabana with a summer kitchen and television, a raised sun terrace, and a dining patio. The lawn sprawls out from the hardscapes, providing plenty of places to play and entertain, including an elegantly planted garden for quiet contemplation. The interior is a decorator’s dream, with rich wide-plank walnut flooring and creamy walls that reflect light streaming in through huge floor-to-ceiling windows. The airy, gourmet kitchen is outfitted with vast quartz countertops and chef’s appliances, opening to a large family room, warmed by a limestone-surrounded fireplace. Finishes throughout the home are classic and luxurious, including designer lighting, creamy marble and quartz, and sparkling mosaic tile accents. Perfect for elegant entertaining, the floor plan flows from indoors to out and includes a formal dining room served by a butler’s pantry for intimate gatherings. Two large, open rooms upstairs can each function as a game room or media room, expanding the entertaining options. The main-floor primary suite is a serene retreat and enjoys a large, marble-clad bath, a huge walk-in closet, and access to a covered porch. Designed with space for every need, the home also includes a large, bookcase-lined office, a huge laundry room, and a large storage closet, plus a three-car garage. Additional luxuries include a whole-house Elan AV system, high fencing, foam insulation, well water for landscaping, plus two additional storage buildings on the property.

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.
