On a wooded lot in one of Austin’s most coveted enclaves, this peaceful property is the epitome of a one-of-a-kind retreat. Set on a remarkably private, wooded .43-acre lot, this home offers a rare combination of seclusion and connectivity. Located in the heart of Westlake and walkable to Westlake High School, this custom property allows its residents to feel worlds away while enjoying unparalleled proximity to the best of Austin. A dramatic atrium-style entry, framed by marble walls, soaring wood-beamed ceilings, and a wall of glass, creates a striking first impression and evokes the calm elegance of a refined retreat. Every corner of this residence reveals thoughtful details—angles, textures, and finishes that reflect a worldly design sensibility. The floor plan is both flexible and inspiring, with three spacious living areas and countless outdoor vignettes. The main level of the home features a sleekly integrated kitchen and family room, designed with both entertaining and everyday living in mind. A sunlit breakfast nook tucked beneath cathedral ceilings provides a peaceful start to the day, while a hidden walk-in pantry behind a leaded glass door adds charm and function. Two secondary bedrooms and a full bath occupy their own wing, offering privacy and comfort. Outdoor access leads to the pool and a series of stone pathways that wind through the property’s lush landscape and large usable yard. Upstairs, a generous primary suite feels like a true retreat, complete with a wraparound treetop deck, expansive bath, and a versatile layout. A large secondary living area—anchored by a gas fireplace—can serve as a media room, play space, or creative studio. The third level offers an unexpected bonus: a full guest suite with its own living room, fireplace, office, and private sun deck, all with sweeping views of downtown Austin. With its distinctive character and prime location, 3601 Moon River Road represents a rare opportunity to live expansively in the heart of it all.
