On a 0.6186-acre corner lot in River Place, 5900 Moondust Ln delivers 4,455 square feet of 2025 construction with 5 bedrooms, 5 full baths, 2 half baths, a pool, and a 3-car garage at $538 per square foot. In River Place, 5900 Moondust Ln puts a large, newly built single family residence into one of Austin, Texas 78730's most established hill-country communities, with the scale and layout buyers want now.

The floor plan is built for daily use, not just showings. The primary suite sits on the main level, and the house adds a private study, game room, workspace area, and media room with a wet bar and beverage center. That matters in a part of Austin where many buyers need space for work, guests, and entertaining under one roof. The kitchen is set up like a serious working kitchen, with a JennAir dual-fuel range, a large island, quartz counters, walk-in pantry storage, and tall soft-close cabinetry. Outside, the pool, spa, and outdoor kitchen extend the living space in a way that fits the River Place lifestyle for much of the year.

From a location standpoint, this address connects well to the Four Points corridor and key West Austin routes like RM 2222 and RM 620. Broadcom's Austin campus is nearby, and major employers in the Four Points area are within an easy daily drive. River Place Country Club is about 1.4 miles away, Sun Tree Park is about 1.2 miles away, and River Place Nature Trail is about 2.3 miles away. Bull Creek District Park and Quarry Lake add more options for weekends outside, whether that means hiking, golf, tennis, boating, or a short dinner run back through Four Points.

For schools, the draw is clear. The home is in Leander ISD, with River Place Elementary, Four Points Middle School, and Vandegrift High School serving the area. That school path continues to be one of the strongest value drivers in this section of Travis County because buyers consistently search River Place first for access to Vandegrift and the surrounding amenities.

At $2.40 million and only 17 days on market, this home enters Austin's upper-tier inventory with the right mix of lot size, new construction, and neighborhood credibility. For buyers who want a modern River Place address with room to grow into and hold long term, 5900 Moondust Ln lines up well for both lifestyle and future value.

River Place is home to one of the most technical trail systems inside Austin city limits. The River Place Nature Trail drops nearly 800 feet through three distinct canyons - Canyon Trail, Panther Hollow, and Little Fern - before reaching Lake Austin. Most neighborhoods talk about outdoor access. River Place delivers terrain that makes experienced hikers pay attention, starting from a trailhead residents can reach on foot.

The neighborhood sits in northwest Austin, bounded by RR 2222 south, RR 620 east, and Balcones Canyonlands north and west. Lake Austin forms the western boundary. Downtown takes about twenty-five minutes via 2222 or 360, and the Arboretum tech corridor is fifteen minutes east. Steiner Ranch Steakhouse has been a reliable dinner spot for years. Butterwhisk Brunch House draws weekend crowds. Russell's Bakery handles morning coffee. Bellissima does Italian, Galaxy Cafe covers casual lunch.

Housing is predominantly Texas Traditional and Hill Country Stone, reflecting the natural landscape of limestone ledges and native oak groves. Mediterranean and Contemporary styles make up the rest. Homes range from 2,500 to 5,000 square feet. Flat lots are around a quarter acre, while ridgeline lots can exceed an acre. Prices start in the mid-$600s for older homes and run past $2 million for newer builds with views. The sweet spot is $800,000 to $1.4 million for a four- or five-bedroom with Hill Country views and privacy.

River Place is served by Leander ISD. River Place Elementary is the neighborhood school with a solid reputation. Students feed into Canyon Ridge Middle School and Vandegrift High School, both relatively new campuses. Vandegrift has earned recognition for music programs, competitive sports, and college prep. Leander ISD may not carry the name recognition of Eanes to the south, but the schools serving River Place are well-funded and consistently improving.

The Nature Trail is the headliner, but Bull Creek and St. Edwards Park are both nearby. Bull Creek has swimming holes that fill up on summer weekends. St. Edwards Park has canyon overlooks and seasonal waterfall access. The River Place Country Club provides golf, tennis, swimming, and social events. Weekend mornings start on a trail or at the club, and the rhythm tracks the school calendar. Summers bring families to creek beds, fall means Friday nights at Vandegrift.

River Place competes with Steiner Ranch, Canyon Creek, and northern Westlake. Steiner Ranch has similar outdoor access but feels denser. Canyon Creek lacks the canyon-and-ridge topography. Westlake offers Eanes ISD but at significantly higher prices. River Place hits a value position that is hard to match: Hill Country terrain, strong schools, twenty-five-minute commute, at prices well below Westlake or Rob Roy.

River Place makes sense for families who want Hill Country terrain and outdoor access without leaving Austin city limits. It is the right neighborhood for people who want a nature trail out the back door, a good school district, and enough space to breathe within a reasonable commute.
