Property Overview
Perched on nearly ten acres of remarkably usable land in prestigious Westlake Hills, this Wild Basin Ledge estate commands a rare combination of scale, seclusion, and proximity to downtown Austin. The property boasts over 1,000 feet of spring-fed Bee Creek frontage, a natural water feature that anchors the expansive grounds and contributes to the sense of privacy found in few Hill Country properties. Just minutes from Austin's urban core, the setting feels genuinely removed—a distinction that defines Eanes ISD's most coveted addresses.
The residence itself spans more than 5,400 interior square feet with an additional 3,500 square feet of covered terraces, verandas, and courtyard spaces designed for seamless indoor-outdoor living. A resort-style pool and spa anchor the outdoor experience, while the overall structure encompasses over 10,000 square feet under roof. Built in 1999, the home sits on naturally elevated, build-friendly terrain that supports both immediate livability and considerable long-term flexibility for the right buyer.
The architectural bones invite selective modernization rather than wholesale renovation—allowing an owner to move in comfortably while enhancing the property according to personal vision. Views toward downtown Austin and the surrounding Hill Country landscape reinforce the property's exceptional positioning within Westlake Hills. This represents a meaningful land offering in a neighborhood where substantial acreage remains increasingly rare.
Agent Description
Set on nearly 10 largely flat, usable acres in Eanes ISD, this Westlake estate offers rare scale, privacy, and downtown Austin view corridors just 10 minutes from the city’s core. With over 1,000 feet of spring-fed Bee Creek frontage and a natural setting that feels removed from everything, the property delivers both immediate livability and long-term flexibility. The existing 5,400+ SF residence is designed for indoor-outdoor living, with more than 3,500 square feet of covered terraces, verandas, and courtyard spaces surrounding a resort-style pool and spa. In total, the structure encompasses over 10,000 square feet under roof, creating a much larger living experience than the interior square footage alone suggests. Set on build-friendly terrain, the home provides a strong architectural foundation ready for selective modernization — allowing a buyer to move in comfortably while enhancing over time, without the pressure of a full rebuild. Beyond the current improvements, elevated portions of the property offer optional expansion potential, additional structures, or future estate planning flexibility if desired. Subdivision configuration is possible (buyer to verify), adding another layer of long-term optionality while preserving its immediate function as a private, usable estate. Nearly 10 acres this close to downtown — with flat land, water frontage, skyline exposure, and privacy — are increasingly difficult to replicate.
