Backed to the Fazio Canyons Golf Course and priced at $732 per square foot, 8221 Carranzo Dr stands out as a 3,824 square foot single-family residence in Barton Creek, Barton Creek that is hard to replicate at this level. At 8221 Carranzo Dr, the draw is not just the $2.80 million price point or the 0.257-acre lot, but the combination of a single-story 2015 build, two fireplaces, a 3-car garage, and a quiet cul-de-sac setting behind private gates in Austin 78735.

This part of Barton Creek works for buyers who want privacy without giving up daily convenience. You are minutes from Barton Creek Country Club and the Fazio Canyons Clubhouse, with Barton Creek Greenbelt access nearby for hiking and trail time. Southwest Parkway and Bee Cave Road make it easier to move between this address and West Lake retail, downtown Austin, and major employment centers without feeling like you live in the middle of traffic. That balance matters in Southwest Austin, where many luxury homes offer views or club access, but fewer combine those benefits with a practical floor plan and an easy lock-and-leave profile.

The layout here is set up for real daily use. Three bedrooms, three full baths, and one half bath give each bedroom its own privacy, while the separate office and second living area add flexibility for work, media, or guests. Large walls of glass pull natural light deep into the main living spaces and connect the interior to the covered patio, built-in grill, and outdoor fire feature. The lot is flat by Barton Creek standards, which is a real advantage for outdoor living and easier maintenance. For buyers comparing newer luxury product in Austin, that matters as much as finish level.

School assignments are another key data point. This home is in Austin ISD, with Oak Hill Elementary, O Henry Middle School, and Austin High School. Those are established Austin names that buyers recognize immediately, and they strengthen the long-term appeal of Barton Creek for households who care about public school options as much as location. With only 2 days on market, 8221 Carranzo Dr is the kind of address that speaks to how people actually want to live in Barton Creek now: newer construction, gated privacy, golf course setting, and a location that should hold value well as Austin luxury inventory stays selective.
