419 Brady Ln, Austin, TX 78746

Nestled beneath a canopy of native oaks just minutes from downtown, 419 Brady Lane is a stunning reinterpretation of an original A.D. Stenger-designed home, one of Austin’s most iconic mid-century architects. Completely remodeled and expanded in 2021, this architectural gem balances historic character with modern luxury. Stenger’s signature angles, elevated structure, and site-sensitive orientation remain, while new steel siding, expansive windows, an expanded footprint, and thoughtful updates breathe fresh life into the space. The striking A-frame silhouette, bold yellow door, and integrated spiral staircase offer a playful nod to the original era of design, updated with contemporary finishes throughout. Designed with flexibility in mind, the home offers two bedrooms on the main level and a private one-bedroom suite below, complete with its own exterior entrance, ideal for guests, a separate home office, or creative retreat. Set on an oversized lot in a lush, wooded enclave, the home is surrounded by mature native landscaping that creates a serene, private retreat just minutes from downtown. Stone pathways wind through curated gardens, leading to outdoor living spaces designed for both quiet moments and effortless entertaining. With glimpses of the Austin skyline peeking through the treetops, the property embodies Stenger’s vision of seamless indoor-outdoor living. Don’t miss this opportunity to own a reimagined piece of local architectural history.

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.
