908 Cypress Grove Dr, Austin, TX 78732

Tucked within the exclusive gated enclave of McCormick Ranch on Lake Austin, this private estate offers a rare opportunity to own in one of Austin’s most tightly held luxury communities with a limited collection of custom homes and close proximity to Lake Austin. Residents enjoy a quiet, secure setting just minutes from the UT Golf Club, River Place Country Club, and the shopping, dining, and waterfront lifestyle along 620, Four Points, and Lakeway.

Set on nearly a full acre with Hill Country and lake views, this Paradisa-built residence features a flexible layout with 6 bedrooms, 4 full baths, multiple living and dining areas, and a private office. Soaring ceilings and expansive glass doors and windows flood the home with natural light while creating a seamless indoor-outdoor connection.

The chef’s kitchen impresses with a massive 13 ft quartz island, Wolf appliances, Sub-Zero, full size wine fridge, custom cabinetry, and generous prep space, all opening to the main living areas for effortless entertaining. The primary suite offers a private retreat with spa-inspired bath, dual vanities, soaking tub, walk-in shower, and an expansive boutique-style closet with dressing and fit check area.

A main level flex room serves as a bedroom, second office, or guest space, while an additional room near the primary suite opens to a private patio, ideal as a secluded study, lounge, or pet retreat. Upstairs, the media room opens to a covered balcony capturing sweeping Hill Country and lake views.

The outdoor living is designed for both entertaining and everyday enjoyment with a heated pool and spa, multiple covered patios, and a fully equipped outdoor kitchen that extends the living space outdoors. A rare oversized boat/RV garage with dual access doors adds exceptional functionality.

This is more than a home, it is a private Lake Austin lifestyle offering space, design, and seamless indoor-outdoor living, ideal as a primary residence or luxury second home.

At 908 Cypress Grove Drive in Steiner Ranch, the sun hits the Hill Country ridgeline around 7:15 pm most evenings, and that's when this 6-bedroom, 4-bath residence transforms into what it was built for: hosting the kind of gatherings people talk about for years.

The home sits on nearly a full acre in one of Austin's most restricted gated communities, where fewer than 200 homes share the same address format and the same ethos. Paradisa built this in 2018 with a specific vision: flow. The main level opens from the chef's kitchen through 13 feet of quartz island space, past Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances, straight into multiple dining areas and living spaces, all of which spill onto covered patios and the heated pool deck. That's not accidental. The soaring ceilings and cathedral vaults aren't there to impress; they're there to carry sound and movement, to make 40 people feel like a natural gathering rather than a crowd.

The outdoor kitchen anchors the social spine. Behind it, the pool and spa sit positioned to catch those Hill Country and lake views that define the property's 0.995-acre footprint. The 4-car garage includes a rare oversized boat/RV bay, which means clients who keep watercraft on Lake Austin itself, just minutes south down Lakeway, can stage equipment without compromising the aesthetic of the main residence.

Indoors, the primary suite operates as a genuine retreat with a spa-bath setup: soaking tub, dual vanities, walk-in shower, and a closet system with separate dressing space. A main-level flex bedroom works as guest quarters, home office, or pet retreat. The media room upstairs opens to a covered balcony that frames the same views the main deck captures.

Leander ISD serves the property through River Ridge Elementary, Canyon Ridge Middle, and Vandegrift High. The neighborhood itself sits minutes from UT Golf Club and River Place Country Club, with the shopping and restaurant density along Highway 620 and Four Points Boulevard within a 10-minute drive.

At $2.50 million on 5,639 square feet, the per-square-foot value reflects both the location premium and the entertainment infrastructure that's built in. This is Lake Austin living where the outdoor season runs most of the year and the architecture is designed around the life that happens when people choose to gather.

Steiner Ranch is a 4,600-acre master-planned community in 78732, built along the bluffs above Lake Austin and Lake Travis. Median home price $800K. Leander ISD schools (Laura Bush Elementary, Canyon Ridge Middle, Vandegrift High), three resort-style community pools, 20+ miles of trails, and private Lake Austin access via the Lake Club.

Around 6,500 homes across multiple sections, built from the late 1990s through today. Housing ranges from $500K townhomes to $2M+ estates backing to the UT Golf Club (Roy Bechtol championship course, 7,412 yards). The community is fully built out in most sections, with limited new construction remaining.

Daily life revolves around being outside. Trail runners hit J Canyon and Powerline Hill loops before work. The Lake Club gives residents private boat launch access with eleven day-use docks on Lake Austin. Lake Travis is five minutes from the community entrance. Steiner Ranch Steakhouse — panoramic lake views, live music seven nights a week — is the social center.

What makes Steiner Ranch the value play for lake-adjacent living: resort-level amenities at a fraction of Lake Austin waterfront pricing, strong schools, and a community infrastructure (pools, trails, golf, lake access) that most master-planned developments can't match. The tradeoff is the 620 commute — 25-35 minutes to downtown depending on traffic.
