The City of Westlake Hills is an incorporated municipality within the Austin metro, giving residents their own city services while maintaining easy access to downtown, just 15 minutes east on Bee Cave Road.
The neighborhood is defined by rolling terrain, towering oaks, and homes that range from established 1970s ranches to breathtaking contemporary estates perched on limestone bluffs. Lot sizes are generous, often an acre or more, and many properties offer Hill Country views that never get old. Streets like Redbud Trail, Westlake Drive, and Laurel Valley Road showcase some of the finest residential architecture in the region.
What draws most families to Westlake is the Eanes Independent School District — consistently one of the highest-rated districts in Texas.
