Lake Pointe | Hill Country Views & Traditional Charm. Timeless character and modern updates define this impressive two-story home in West Austin’s sought-after Lake Pointe community. Set on over a quarter-acre backing to a vast wooded greenbelt, it captures long-range Hill Country views from the entire rear of the home. Mature trees, established landscaping, brick masonry, and a side-entry garage introduce the home’s gracious scale. A dramatic foyer with soaring ceilings, grand staircase, and chandelier introduces formal dining and a French-door office. Crown molding, plantation shutters, and hardwood floors distinguish the main living areas. The living room features a wood-burning fireplace flanked by built-ins, with windows framing long-range greenbelt views. The spacious kitchen offers white cabinetry, granite countertops, a wraparound peninsula with bar seating, a center island, and built-in appliances. A sunny breakfast area overlooks the backyard. Upstairs, the secluded primary suite features greenbelt views and an adjoining bonus room. Its updated ensuite includes separate granite-topped vanities, a freestanding soaking tub, frameless glass shower, and oversized walk-in closet. Two additional bedrooms share full bath with separate vanity areas. A main-level guest bedroom and adjacent full bath provide added flexibility. An expansive back deck invites outdoor dining beneath towering shade trees, with the wooded greenbelt creating a peaceful backdrop. The fenced yard features an irrigated lawn and wrought-iron fencing that preserves the views. Lake Pointe amenities include a pool, splash pad, parks, trails, sport courts, and a day dock on Lake Austin. The Hill Country Galleria, acclaimed Lake Travis ISD schools, and convenient Downtown Austin access round out the appeal. With generous living spaces, distinctive traditional details, and a remarkably private greenbelt backdrop, this Lake Pointe home offers plenty to appreciate. Schedule your tour today!
