About this home

Welcome to 5211 Dry Wells, a local architectural gem envisioned and built by local Austin architect Robert Rizzo as his personal residence, now offered for only the second time, ever. Thoughtfully updated and immaculately maintained by the current owners, this is the type of home that everybody loves spending time in. The first-floor footprint includes the primary suite, home office, kitchen, powder bath, and two living/dining areas — giving the feel of one-level-living yet with added upper-level flexibility. The upper level includes two large bedrooms and a Jack-and-Jill bathroom — ideal for kids, guests, or a second master suite. Large sunken central living room features soaring ceilings, classical architectural columns, and large picture windows that effortlessly frame views across the oversized greenbelt. Kitchen has been updated with new countertops, backsplash, sink, hardware, KitchenAid built-in appliances, warming drawer, beverage fridge and pantry cabinet. The primary bath and powder bath have also been completely renovated. Western Oaks is one of Austin’s most beloved neighborhoods—known for its lush mature trees, oversized lots and interconnecting greenbelts. Amenities include: junior-Olympic pool, tennis, pickleball and basketball courts, and a large central playground. Trail lovers will enjoy quick access to the Latta Branch Greenbelt and Violet Crown Trail, offering miles of scenic routes. Western Oaks is an active community, offering season-long youth swim teams, tennis leagues, garage-sale weekends, Fourth-of-July parades, and neighborhood block parties. Located just 10 miles from downtown Austin and only 11 miles from Austin-Bergstrom International Airport, this is a commuter-friendly location, yet tucked away from the hustle and bustle. 5211 Dry Wells Rd is more than a house—With its architectural design, custom finishes, and enviable greenbelt backdrop, this property stands apart as a truly unique offering in Western Oaks.
