About This Property
Privately situated on a lush, secluded corner lot in the heart of the coveted Travis Heights, 2301 Alta Vista offers a blend of scale, privacy, functionality, and effortless indoor-outdoor living, just moments from downtown Austin. Surrounded by mature trees and layered landscaping, the property unfolds with a sense of calm and seclusion that feels increasingly difficult to find this close to the city. Positioned on approximately 9,400 square feet, the setting creates a true retreat atmosphere while remaining connected to everything that defines the Travis Heights lifestyle. Designed for entertaining, the single-story floor plan features four bedrooms and two bathrooms, with expansive living spaces anchored by soaring ceilings, exposed beams, incredible natural light, and beautifully crafted wood detailing throughout. The open-concept layout creates an easy flow among the kitchen, dining, and living areas, making the home equally suited for large gatherings or relaxed everyday living. Outdoor living takes center stage with an oversized patio, resort-style pool and spa, and multiple spaces designed for entertaining beneath the canopy of mature trees. The result is a backyard experience that feels private, inviting, and distinctly Austin. Thoughtful updates throughout the home balance warmth and functionality, while sustainable features, including solar panels and a rainwater collection tank, offer long-term efficiency benefits and reduced utility costs. In addition to serving as an exceptional primary residence, the property has also operated successfully as a short-term rental, offering flexibility and income potential.
