Property Overview

Nestled among towering mature live oaks on nearly eight-tenths of an acre, 3901 Prentice Lane presents an exceptional retreat within Tarrytown's most coveted West Rim enclave. This 1982-built residence has been thoughtfully updated with new hardwood floors, HVAC systems, exterior finishes, and refreshed decking, all while preserving the serene treehouse aesthetic created by soaring vaulted ceilings and abundant natural light. The open-concept main floor—anchored by a central fireplace—flows effortlessly across kitchen, dining, and multiple living spaces, each framing views of the surrounding canopy and private water features including a wet-weather creek and reflective pond.

The primary suite functions as a private sanctuary, offering a sitting area and spa-like closet with direct patio access overlooking the manicured grounds below. Three additional bedrooms and four full baths accommodate extended family and guests comfortably. Multiple decks and outdoor spaces invite year-round enjoyment of this quiet, nature-immersed setting—a rarity in central Austin near top-rated schools and Lake Austin access. Professional arborist care ensures the estate's crown jewels remain healthy for generations.

Positioned at $589 per square foot, this 3,820-square-foot home represents exceptional value in Austin's prestigious Tarrytown neighborhood, sitting six percent below the area median.
