TIMELESS CHARACTER MEETS DESIGNER SOPHISTICATION! More than a renovation, this exceptional Northwest Austin townhome was thoughtfully reimagined as the personal retreat of a local designer and her children. Every space reflects a creative's eye for detail, blending original architectural character with curated finishes, modern comforts, and a warm, sophisticated aesthetic. The result is a storied home that feels both elevated and inviting.

One of the largest homes in the community, this 1,916-square-foot residence features 3 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, two spacious living areas, and two fireplaces that add warmth and charm. The versatile floor plan offers distinct living spaces, including a separate level with its own bedroom, full bathroom, living area, and private patio - the perfect retreat!

Perhaps most captivating are the breathtaking, unobstructed sunset views from both the largest bedroom and the upper balcony, creating a magical backdrop for peaceful evenings. An updated deck, fenced downstairs patio, and charming gated front garden offer additional spaces to relax and entertain.

Tucked into a quiet, established neighborhood backing to scenic hiking trails and lush greenery, this home offers a sense of privacy and tranquility while remaining minutes from the Arboretum, The Domain, excellent shopping, dining, and highly regarded schools. Enjoy a private community pool just across the street, a spacious two-car garage with extra storage, and convenient access to Loop 360, Highway 183, and MoPac.

A home with a story, a designer's vision, and character all its own. Renovated and completely turnkey, this rare gem offers the perfect blend of thoughtful design, everyday comfort, and effortless living.

Westover Hills sits in the 78759 zip in Northwest Austin, built mostly between 1972 and 1985 on the rolling terrain north of Far West Boulevard. Houses are 2,400-4,500 sqft on quarter-acre to half-acre lots with mature live oaks and the kind of long driveways that came with 1970s suburban planning. Most homes have been updated at least once - kitchens and baths from the 2010s, HVAC and roofs newer.

What makes Westover Hills different from other Northwest Austin neighborhoods is the Westover Hills Club - a private swim and tennis club exclusive to residents. The pool, tennis courts, and family events run year-round. Membership is included with most home purchases in the deed-restricted area, so you don't have to wait for a slot.

Pricing runs $850K for original-condition homes up to $1.8M for renovated and expanded properties. The neighborhood holds value because the lots are bigger than most of Northwest Austin and the school zoning is strong: Hill Elementary, Murchison Middle, and Anderson High School - which runs the International Baccalaureate program that draws families from across the district.

Location works well if you commute to Northwest Austin tech employers: 5 minutes to The Domain, 8 minutes to Apple's North Austin campus, 10 minutes to the Arboretum, and 15 minutes to downtown via MoPac. Great Hills Park and the Bull Creek greenbelt sit at the western edge with hiking trails that connect to the larger Bull Creek system.

Restaurants and shopping cluster on Anderson Lane, Far West Boulevard, and at the Arboretum: Eddie V's, Z'Tejas, Truluck's, Maudie's Tex-Mex, and the Whole Foods at Gateway. The Arboretum walking path makes outdoor dining and weekend errands easy.

Best for buyers who want larger lots than most of Northwest Austin, IB-program school zoning, the private Westover Hills Club, and quick access to both the Domain and downtown.
