One of the last significant wooded estates in Central Austin, this cherished 1960s family homestead on 3 acres is now available in the heart of Northwest Hills. Nestled beneath a gorgeous canopy of heritage oaks and surrounded by wildlife, Austin architect Frank DeGroot designed the original residence—a sprawling single-story limestone and wood home in 1960s vintage condition with 4 bedrooms, 4.5 baths, and more than 3,600 sq ft of living space in just the house. Covered porches and a stone patio extended the living outdoors, and created inviting evenings spent gathering under the stars.
Through the years, the property grew into a true compound, with additional structures that welcomed guests and was a family haven for nature hikes forest bathing and country-style living. At its center lies a deep 20’x40’ swimming pool, the location of countless summer memories. A two-story pool house and adjacent cottages provided space for family and friends, while decks, solariums, and patios created inviting spots to relax or entertain. Deer still wander the grounds, undisturbed, a reminder of the natural serenity that sets this property apart.
To call this opportunity rare is an understatement. Here is your chance to reimagine a remarkable estate—craft a new family retreat, preserve its vintage charm, or explore its development potential on these three acres of rare, central Austin land. This is more than a home—it’s a place where memories and new stories are waiting to be written.

Neighborhood guide and local insights
Northwest Hills is a family neighborhood in 78731, built in the 1960s-80s on wooded half-acre lots between MoPac and Loop 360. Median home price $1.19M. Austin ISD schools — Doss Elementary and Murchison Middle rank among the district's best. 12 minutes to UT campus, 15 to downtown. The housing stock is predominantly single-story ranch and split-level homes on lots averaging 0.3-0.5 acres with mature live oak and cedar canopy. Most original homes are 1,800-3,000 sq ft. A renovation wave has been updating kitchens and adding square footage without tearing down — the lot sizes accommodate additions well. Active listings typically number 15-25 at any given time. Daily life revolves around the schools and the outdoors. Bull Creek for weekend wading, Mount Bonnell for sunset hikes (8 minutes from the neighborhood), Northwest District Park for soccer and the playground. Far West corridor handles weeknight dining — Saffron, 5280 Burger, Yamas. The Arboretum and Domain are 10 minutes north for shopping. HEB on Far West is the neighborhood grocery hub. What makes Northwest Hills the family value play in Central Austin: Doss/Murchison school quality at roughly half the Eanes ISD price point, lot sizes that rival Westlake, and a 15-minute commute that beats the suburbs. The tradeoff is Austin ISD (good but not Eanes) and 1960s-80s housing stock that often needs updating.
