Envision the possibilities on 33+ unrestricted acres of Texas Hill Country, where the views alone justify the drive. Picture a private estate crowning an elevated ridgeline, a working ranch across gently rolling terrain, or a future development with Austin at your doorstep. Limestone lined seasonal creeks become waterfalls after rain, and mature oaks shade a landscape that feels a world away, yet sits 5 minutes from Hwy 290 and 18 miles from downtown Austin. Spanning Travis and Hays Counties, primarily within the Dripping Springs ETJ and ISD, the land sits over the Trinity Aquifer with a 60 foot paved easement road and no deed restrictions. Land like this, this close to Austin, with these characteristics, rarely comes to market. Buyer to verify usage, zoning, restrictions, utilities, etc.
Travis Southwest, located between Barton Creek Greenbelt and the Hill Country ridgeline, is a residential and outdoorsy Austin neighborhood with limestone hillsides and winding, tree-lined roads. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Mopac Expressway frontage near the Barton Creek Square area, where big-box retail, local eateries, and steady traffic set a practical, on-the-go tone. Housing leans toward 1970s–1990s ranch-style homes and townhome communities tucked into rolling terrain. Trailheads and creek corridors shape daily routines more than a traditional main street. Barton Creek Greenbelt access points and nearby preserves keep the landscape close. Barton Creek Square and the Alamo Drafthouse Cinema at Slaughter Lane serve as familiar gathering anchors.
