Real experiences from buyers and sellers in this neighborhood
We looked at Rob Roy, Barton Creek, and Spanish Oaks over the course of several months. Joe gave us an honest comparison of all three — Rob Roy has the best school access and the most established feel, Barton Creek has the resort amenities, and Spanish Oaks has the privacy. We chose Rob Roy because our kids could ride the bus to Eanes schools and we didn't need to join a country club. Joe never pushed us toward the highest price point. He just wanted us to be happy with the choice.
W. Ashford
Rob Roy was always the goal — gated, Eanes ISD, big lots with Hill Country views. Joe told us to be patient because inventory in Rob Roy is thin. He monitored listings for six months and called us the day a home hit the market that matched what we'd described. We saw it that afternoon and wrote the offer that night. Joe's advice was to go strong on price and clean on terms. The sellers accepted the next morning.
V. Castellano
Cara sold our Rob Roy estate when we moved to Santa Fe. The house was over 6,000 square feet and she told us honestly that the buyer pool above $2.5M is small and the sales cycle is longer. She was right — it took about 90 days — but she found us a buyer who paid cash and closed quickly once the deal was made. Cara's patience and market knowledge at the high end are excellent.

Keenan Group Authority
Rob Roy is 15-20 minutes from downtown Austin via Redbud Trail to MoPac. During peak rush hour, the commute can stretch to 25-30 minutes due to MoPac congestion. The Westlake Hills shopping and dining corridor is 10 minutes away for daily errands.
Yes. Rob Roy has 24/7 staffed security gates with guard-controlled entry for all vehicles. It is one of only two gated communities in the close-in Eanes ISD corridor (the other being Barton Creek). All visitors must be authorized by residents before entering.
Rob Roy is served by Eanes ISD, one of the top-rated public school districts in Texas. The school path is Eanes Elementary, Hill Country Middle School, and Westlake High School. Eanes ISD is a primary demand driver for Rob Roy real estate.
Yes. While most of Rob Roy is built out, custom new builds still occur regularly on teardown lots or the small number of remaining undeveloped parcels. Expect $1.5M-$2.5M for an acreage lot, then $1.5M-$4M+ for custom construction, totaling $3M-$6.5M+ for a new build. The HOA architectural review committee approves plans, and Austin's tree preservation ordinance applies to any grading or tree work. We advise buyers considering new construction to verify buildable footprint (after tree preservation + septic setbacks if applicable) before closing on a lot.
Rob Roy does not have direct Lake Austin waterfront, but several homes back to or face the Lake Austin corridor with water views. Lake Austin access is a short drive from the community - typically 5-10 minutes to the nearest boat ramp or marina. Some Rob Roy families maintain boat slips at nearby marinas (Austin Country Club, Emerald Point) rather than owning waterfront. For buyers wanting true Lake Austin waterfront, see our [Lake Austin neighborhood guide](/neighborhoods/lake-austin) for direct-waterfront options.

Rob Roy offers something no other Eanes ISD neighborhood matches: gated entry with 24/7 staffed security on 1-5 acre estate lots. Westlake Hills has Eanes schools but is ungated. Barton Creek has gates and golf but is farther from downtown. Rob Roy combines security, acreage, Eanes ISD, and a 15-20 minute downtown commute - that specific combination draws buyers who value privacy above all else.
The lots are the largest in the close-in Eanes ISD corridor. While Westlake Hills lots typically run 0.25-1 acre, Rob Roy parcels start at 1 acre and many reach 3-5 acres. That scale means homes sit far from the road and far from neighbors. The terrain is hilly with mature oak cover, seasonal creeks, and Hill Country views. It feels rural despite being 15-20 minutes from downtown.
The live Rob Roy MLS market snapshot shows a median sold price of $2.1M, 8 active listings, 98 days average days on market, and $570 average sold price per square foot, based on 11 closed sales in the trailing 12-month market dataset.
Sales-through should be read with inventory and pricing together: 11 trailing-12-month closed sales, 3 pending listings, 8.7 months of supply, and a 92% sale-to-list ratio.
Rob Roy sits in the hills west of Austin, accessed primarily via Redbud Trail from MoPac or from the Westlake Hills corridor via Rob Roy Lane. The community entrance is approximately 7 miles from downtown Austin. The 15-20 minute commute relies on MoPac, which is subject to rush-hour delays at the MoPac/360 interchange and the Bee Caves Road corridor.
Inside the gates, Rob Roy roads wind through hilly terrain on private streets. The community is quiet and removed - you can hear birds and wind rather than traffic. That isolation is intentional, but it means every errand requires a car. There is no walkable retail, no neighborhood restaurant, and no corner store.
Rob Roy is a community built around privacy, not social programming. There is no community clubhouse, no organized social calendar, and no mandatory community events. Neighbors know each other through school connections, personal relationships, and the shared experience of living behind the gate. The social life of Rob Roy families typically centers around Eanes ISD school activities, sports leagues, and private clubs they join independently.
The buyers who are happiest in Rob Roy are the ones who want their home to be their retreat. The acreage, the gate, the quiet - these are features for people who want to come home, close the door, and decompress. If you want to walk to a coffee shop or run into neighbors at a community pool, Rob Roy is probably not the right fit.
We approach Rob Roy listings as estate sales, not standard residential listings. The lot - acreage, elevation, view corridor, creek frontage - often drives the buyer's valuation, and the right buyer is evaluating the land separately from the structure.
Rob Roy's gated, security-patrolled setting limits casual showings, which means the marketing strategy shifts toward qualified private introductions before MLS. We use executive, relocation, and luxury-buyer channels for the same profile that defines the community.
For older construction, we help sellers understand the teardown-versus-renovation math that buyers will run. For newer estates, presentation and photography of the lot's Hill Country views become the lead marketing asset.
Rob Roy turnover is low, so timing is less about season and more about connecting with the right buyer through private channels.
Contact us for a confidential Rob Roy estate valuation.
Rob Roy buyers typically compare with Westlake Hills, Barton Creek, Davenport Ranch, and occasionally Tarrytown. The decision usually comes down to: How much do you value gated security and acreage vs. proximity and amenities?
Rob Roy is 15-20 minutes from downtown Austin via Redbud Trail to MoPac. During peak rush hour, the commute can stretch to 25-30 minutes due to MoPac congestion. The Westlake Hills shopping and dining corridor is 10 minutes away for daily errands.
