9005 Spicebrush Dr, Austin, TX 78759

With privacy and protected views galore, this meticulously upgraded and maintained home on 3 acres is close to everything that Northwest Austin offers. Floor plan includes four bedrooms, two office spaces, and two living spaces - each with an abundance of natural light. Enjoy protected green belt views from the master bedroom, living room, office, and kitchen. Upgrades include tankless water heater, maple hardwood flooring, new paint, new carpet, upgraded restrooms, and low E south-facing windows. The owners have carefully invested in multiple energy efficiency features which include 41 solar panels via grid-tie inverters (covers ~ half of the energy costs), solar powered attic ventilation, and separate upstairs/downstairs Wyze "smart" thermostats. The resort-style yard features naturally drought-resistant landscaping around the 35 ft pool (re-plastered in 2017), hot tub (2020), and outdoor serving station. To top it off, you can hike along your own seasonal wet-weather creek (which connects to a walking path), enjoy Dominion Park which is just up the road (~0.5 mi), or St Edward's park. This home is the ultimate nature retreat for close-in, urban living.
