4911 Bull Mountain Cv, Austin, TX 78746

Perched on a one-acre setting in the hills of Westlake, 4911 Bull Mountain Cove was designed with a clear intention to frame and elevate its extraordinary surroundings. From sunrise to sunset, sweeping Hill Country views and striking downtown Austin vistas are experienced from multiple vantage points throughout the home, creating a dynamic backdrop that evolves with the day. Thoughtfully reimagined in 2019 by The Muskin Company in collaboration with interior designer Allison Burke, the interiors reflect a refined, modern sensibility. Wide plank oak floors, crisp white walls, and a curated mix of marble and quartz surfaces create a cohesive and timeless aesthetic. The main level is designed for effortless living and entertaining, where a sleek kitchen opens to expansive living areas wrapped in walls of glass that draw the eye outward and connect seamlessly to the covered terrace and pool. The primary suite is positioned as a quiet retreat, capturing expansive views in multiple directions and offering a sense of calm above the city. Complete with four bedrooms, four and a half bathrooms, a gated entrance, and a two-car garage, the home offers a rare balance of design, privacy, and proximity, just minutes from downtown Austin and within the highly regarded Eanes ISD.

At 4911 Bull Mountain Cove in Austin's Bull Mountain Phase 01 subdivision, the Hill Country views strike you immediately. This 5,032 square foot residence sits on nearly an acre in the 78746 zip code, positioned high enough to frame sweeping vistas of both the surrounding hills and downtown Austin. The home commands attention from the moment you arrive at the gated entrance, its masonry and stucco exterior anchoring a property that feels removed from the city while remaining minutes away from it.

The interior spans four bedrooms, four full baths, and a half bath across multiple living areas designed for entertaining without sacrificing intimacy. Ceiling-high windows throughout the main level dissolve the boundary between inside and out, with the kitchen opening directly to expansive living spaces that flow onto a covered terrace. Wide plank oak flooring, white walls, and marble and quartz surfaces establish a modern aesthetic that stays current without trendy excess. A built-in bar, breakfast bar, and multiple dining areas give the open floor plan structure and purpose. The primary suite captures views in multiple directions, positioned as a genuine retreat rather than just another bedroom.

The practical finishes match the visual drama. A built-in range, cooktop, double ovens, and both a bar fridge and standard refrigerator handle everything from daily cooking to entertaining crowds. Walk-in closets, a soaking tub with double vanity, and interior steps connecting levels create the kind of functional luxury that works for actual living. Exterior features include a private pool, multiple patios and decks, and a two-car garage.

Location matters here. The property falls within Eanes ISD, feeding into Westlake High School with Bridge Point Elementary and Hill Country Middle serving the lower grades. This school district ranks among Texas's strongest. From Bull Mountain Cove, you reach downtown Austin in under 20 minutes via nearby Westlake Drive and MoPac, while major employers like Apple and Dell are accessible without crossing the city. Austin Bergstrom International Airport is roughly 25 minutes south.

At $765 per square foot for a nearly one-acre homesite with this caliber of finishes and positioning, the property captures what drives demand in West Lake Hills: proximity to Austin's tech corridor and downtown cultural life, paired with genuine separation and Hill Country character. The 2019 reimagining by The Muskin Company ensures the bones are current without the home feeling new in a neighborhood where established character matters.

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.
