4707 Christopher Dr, Austin, TX 78746

Nestled amidst Westlake's picturesque rolling hills, this exceptional new construction estate is poised to redefine modern elegance. With 5 bedrooms, 5.5 bathrooms, office, butler's pantry and attached 3-car garage, this home fully expresses connection between modern architecture & nature. When studying the works of architect greats such as Olson Kundig, SLIC Design carefully curated the castle rock stone, cedar wood & stucco that envelops the home. These exterior materials carry into the interior of the home, focusing on the effortless union between the surroundings and the structure. A sculptural steel vent hood adds an industrial edge to this modern home with a steel wrapped see through fireplace & steel lined kitchen island. The plumbing is by Italian Ceadesign & Watermark. The home features other impactful design elements such as 10"W white oak flooring, travertine tile, roman clay plaster & calacatta marble. These interior finishes further reinforce the home's place in this dramatic landscape. Elevating the living experience, this residence blurs the lines between indoor and outdoor realms. A capacious covered patio, an enchanting pool overlooking the hills, and a pergola set the stage for al fresco dining with unparalleled views. For sport enthusiasts, the property has ample space for a sport court. Ascend to the second level for ultimate privacy, where four bedrooms, including three en-suites, a family room, and an expansive terrace with panoramic treetop views await. Each floor is equipped with a laundry room for added convenience. Within the esteemed Eanes Independent School District, just 3 miles from the prestigious Austin Country Club and a mere 6 miles from downtown Austin, offering a seamless blend of a tranquil residential retreat and easy access to premier shopping and dining.

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.
