About this home
Set on a nearly . 40-acre lot with commanding views of the Cat Mountain Greenbelt, this beautifully updated 2,934-square-foot residence offers a rare blend of privacy, space, and exceptional outdoor living in one of Austin’s most sought-after hillside neighborhoods. Thoughtfully oriented to the southeast, the home captures beautiful natural light and showcases its stunning surroundings from two expansive porches and an intimate back porch—perfect for morning coffee, entertaining, or relaxing while taking in the sweeping views. Inside are three oversized bedrooms, two full baths, one half bath, a flexible office/flex space, and two generous living areas. The updated kitchen and interiors offer comfortable modern living, while the detached two-car garage provides added convenience and storage. Just moments from the Cat Mountain HOA Clubhouse, pool, and tennis courts, this property offers the ideal combination of a large private lot, beautiful views, and easy access to coveted neighborhood amenities.
Cat Mountain Villas, located between RM 2222 and Lake Austin, is a hillside and residential Austin neighborhood with terraced streets and wide canyon views. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the RM 2222 and City Park Road corridor, where low-slung local eateries, coffee counters, and everyday services line the drive toward the water. Homes lean contemporary and Texas modern, with balconies and big windows oriented to the slopes. The setting feels tucked into the Balcones terrain, with short drives to trailheads and boat ramps. Nearby pillars such as The Oasis on Lake Travis, Mozart’s Coffee Roasters, and the Contemporary Austin – Laguna Gloria help define the area’s off-duty rhythm.

Planned unit development (PUD) district is the designation for a large or complex single or multi-use development that is planned as a single contiguous project and that is under unified control. The purpose of a PUD district designation is to preserve the natural environment, encourage high quality development and innovative design, and ensure adequate public facilities and services for development within a PUD. A PUD district designation provides greater design flexibility by permitting modifications of site development regulations. Development under the site development regulations applicable to a PUD must be superior to the development that would occur under conventional zoning and subdivision regulations. A PUD district must include at least 10 acres of land, unless the property is characterized by special circumstances, including unique topographic constraints.
