Westlake Highlands is a wooded, hilly neighborhood off Westlake Drive in the Austin hill country. Generally known as “Old Westlake,” this area is one of Austin’s most sought after neighborhoods. It offers the best of both worlds - country living just minutes from downtown.
When the Texas Society of Architects conducted a study of “ Texas’ Best Places,” twenty-five neighborhoods were chosen. Old Westlake was one of those best places. They describe the area in this way:
“Old Westlake Hills, across Lake Austin from the city of Austin, is distinguished and defined by its unique relationship to the natural landscape. The original houses – often invisible – are modest and assume a secondary role to the rolling hills and native flora. Streets are narrow lanes, without shoulders or curbs, which twist through the wooded terrain. The landscape remains dominant and unspoiled though the district is fully built, creating an extraordinary marriage of house to site to neighborhood. Old Westlake Hills remains a rustic enclave set apart from its citified surrounding environs.”
The Westlake area has easy access to Bee Cave Road and Capital of Texas Hwy (Loop 360). Downtown is about 20 minutes away. Shopping, theaters and restaurants are available along Bee Cave Road and Loop 360.
