This 1.05-acre homesite sits high on the hill in Hudson Bend, right next door to Lot 2B, with the same sweeping views across Lake Travis. From up here, the lake stretches out below you, and the view changes through the day as the light moves across the water. It’s the kind of setting that shapes how you design a home, from where you put the windows to where you’ll want to spend your evenings. The lot gives you room to build the home you have in mind, with space left over for a pool, an outdoor kitchen, or a shaded porch facing the lake. Its spot on the hill adds a sense of privacy from the street, so the home feels tucked away while still being easy to reach. It’s a strong fit for buyers who want space to spread out and a view that stays with you from morning coffee to evening on the patio. Bring your custom builder and plan a home around the lake. The lot includes an easement to Lake Travis and the right to build a private boat dock in deep water, so you can keep your boat in the lake when levels drop. That means easy weekends on the water, whether that’s an early morning ski run, an afternoon swim, or a sunset cruise with friends. Hudson Bend is one of the most established areas around the lake, with restaurants, marinas, and everyday shopping a short drive away. The lot is located in Lake Travis ISD, one of the most respected school districts in Texas, which adds lasting value to any home built here. Downtown Austin is within easy reach, and Austin-Bergstrom International Airport is about 30 minutes away when you need to travel.
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.
