4502 Mountain Path Dr, Austin, TX 78759

Rebuilt to the studs in 2022, this four-bedroom Westover Hills home has new plumbing, electrical, insulation, HVAC, roof, floors, cabinets and countertops, plus added soundproofing in the walls. The primary bedroom is on the main level, and custom floor-to-ceiling windows and sliding doors bring natural light into the living areas.

The kitchen has natural quartzite counters, a waterfall island, a gas range, an oversized refrigerator and high-end appliances. Wide plank hardwood runs throughout, with two fireplaces set in handcrafted brick walls, three living areas, two dining areas, a dedicated office and a large attic for storage.

Out back, the in-ground pool with diving board sits on a handcrafted deck finished to look like white beach sand, next to a separate air-conditioned studio set up as a gym and yoga room. The 0.253-acre lot also has an EV charger, a new fence and an oversized two-car attached garage, and the home comes with a brand-new washer and dryer.

Hill Elementary and Anderson High are within walking distance, and a neighborhood country club with tennis, pickleball, swimming and fitness is nearby (membership separate). The Domain, Whole Foods, Costco, Target and downtown Austin are 5 to 15 minutes away.

Westover Hills sits in the 78759 zip in Northwest Austin, built mostly between 1972 and 1985 on the rolling terrain north of Far West Boulevard. Houses are 2,400-4,500 sqft on quarter-acre to half-acre lots with mature live oaks and the kind of long driveways that came with 1970s suburban planning. Most homes have been updated at least once - kitchens and baths from the 2010s, HVAC and roofs newer.

What makes Westover Hills different from other Northwest Austin neighborhoods is the Westover Hills Club - a private swim and tennis club exclusive to residents. The pool, tennis courts, and family events run year-round. Membership is included with most home purchases in the deed-restricted area, so you don't have to wait for a slot.

Pricing runs $850K for original-condition homes up to $1.8M for renovated and expanded properties. The neighborhood holds value because the lots are bigger than most of Northwest Austin and the school zoning is strong: Hill Elementary, Murchison Middle, and Anderson High School - which runs the International Baccalaureate program that draws families from across the district.

Location works well if you commute to Northwest Austin tech employers: 5 minutes to The Domain, 8 minutes to Apple's North Austin campus, 10 minutes to the Arboretum, and 15 minutes to downtown via MoPac. Great Hills Park and the Bull Creek greenbelt sit at the western edge with hiking trails that connect to the larger Bull Creek system.

Restaurants and shopping cluster on Anderson Lane, Far West Boulevard, and at the Arboretum: Eddie V's, Z'Tejas, Truluck's, Maudie's Tex-Mex, and the Whole Foods at Gateway. The Arboretum walking path makes outdoor dining and weekend errands easy.

Best for buyers who want larger lots than most of Northwest Austin, IB-program school zoning, the private Westover Hills Club, and quick access to both the Domain and downtown.
