Solar panels deliver notable utility savings to this two-story Austin home, situated on a low traffic cul-de-sac street near the Domain, Great Hills, IH 35, Mopac and Toll Road. There is no required toll since this is the last free exit coming from Austin.

Designed for flexible living, the accommodating floor plan includes recent updates and a flex room off the entry, suitable for a second office, dining area, living space, media room, home schooling area, craft room, or an extra bedroom. The first floor hosts the primary bedroom and bathroom suite, along with the two flex areas. The updated kitchen is open to a great room, which features tall ceilings that invite natural light into the space.

The second floor contains three bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and a game room. For storage needs, this level also features a walk-in Texas Basement. This four to five bedroom property features three and a half bathrooms across 2,865 square feet of living space.

The roof was recently replaced in September 2023. Epoxy floors were added to the garage. The kitchen was updated with swiss coffee designer paint, Carrara Extra Quartz Counters, an undermounted sink, new faucet and hardwood flooring.

A lower tax rate (no MUD) and phenomenal Round Rock ISD schools are also a plus. Experience this versatile property firsthand by scheduling a private showing today.

At $183/sqft, this home is 53% below the Austin active market average of $392/sqft, potentially representing value relative to comparable properties currently on the market. View Austin market report →
