7020 Clifton Ln, Austin, TX 78746

Set on a 0.39-acre property in Westlake, this thoughtfully designed 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath home offers a well-balanced floor plan, flexible living spaces, and sweeping Hill Country views. Spanning 2,507 square feet, the home features a functional layout with the primary suite on the main level, along with a dedicated office, powder bath, and an inviting main living area filled with natural light. The living space flows seamlessly into the kitchen and dining areas, creating an ideal environment for both everyday living and entertaining. The main-level primary suite provides a private retreat with a spacious bath and generous closet space, while the dedicated office offers a quiet workspace tucked away from the main living areas. Upstairs, three secondary bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and a spacious second living area offer flexibility for guests, family, or additional gathering space. A covered balcony extends from the upper level, capturing expansive Hill Country views and providing a peaceful setting to relax or entertain. The fully fenced property offers privacy and room to enjoy the outdoors, with space for recreation, pets, or future enhancements. Located within the highly sought-after Eanes ISD and just minutes from Barton Creek Country Club, Westlake’s shopping and dining, and convenient access to downtown Austin, this home offers the opportunity to enjoy Hill Country surroundings while remaining close to the city.

A 0.3876-acre homesite in Westlake is the defining advantage here, and 7020 Clifton Ln puts that land position to work inside Westlake Hills with Eanes ISD access and a 2018 build that avoids the compromises common in older inventory. At $1.40M, or $558 per square foot, the property sits in a part of Austin where lot size, school path, and topographic setting carry long-term weight. Forest Trail, West Ridge, and Westlake High School strengthen that equation for buyers who evaluate not just the house, but the full ownership profile.

The home itself measures 2,507 square feet with four bedrooms, three full baths, one half bath, and a two-car garage. The layout is disciplined and practical. The primary suite is on the main level, along with a dedicated office, powder bath, and the central living space, which connects directly to the kitchen and dining areas. That matters because it gives the house a daily rhythm that works for both full-time living and hosting without forcing all activity onto one zone. Natural light is a clear part of the design, and the main-level arrangement gives the owner separation from the secondary bedrooms rather than stacking every function upstairs.

The upper level adds range. Three additional bedrooms, two full baths, and a second living area create options for guests, family, or work and recreation that do not compete with the main floor. A covered balcony extends that flexibility and takes advantage of the Hill Country views called out in the offering. On a site of this size, the fully fenced yard also has real value. It provides usable outdoor room for recreation, pets, or future changes without overstating what the land can actually support.

Location is where this property gains another layer of relevance. It is positioned in Westlake with access to Barton Creek Country Club, Westlake shopping and dining, and downtown Austin, while still holding onto a Hill Country setting. With just five days on market, the listing is still early in its exposure cycle, which matters in a segment where buyers tend to move quickly on homes that combine land, school alignment, and a modern construction date. For a buyer focused on long-term hold value, 7020 Clifton Ln offers a measured mix of site quality, functional plan, and Westlake location leverage.

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.
