Up here, the name Mountaintop makes sense! 6.18 acres perched high in the Hill Country, with big views, big sky, and room to build something worthy of both. Look out across miles of rolling hills, catch glimpses of Lake Travis, and enjoy the kind of breathing room that comes when your neighbors have acreage of their own. Jonestown’s Dark Sky Community makes the night sky part of the view too! If you're wondering where you could build, you’ve got options! The cleared homesite near the highest point is just one of them. The seller has brought professionals out to walk, study, survey, and evaluate the property, with multiple areas identified as having potential for building across the acreage. Go high for the views, choose something a little more tucked away, or create a main home with a workshop, garage, etc. There’s room here to think beyond one cleared pad. Better yet, the seller already did a whole lot of the unglamorous (and expensive) work. Two lots were combined into one 6.18-acre estate parcel with utility easements released! The property was replatted and rezoned Rural Residential. Extensive survey and topographical work was completed. A builder and design team were even brought in to evaluate the site and develop actual home plans, which were used to create the renderings shown. Plans are not included, but the legwork behind them is very real! Lake Travis and the Balcones Canyonlands are nearby, with the Balcones Canyonlands Preserve protecting more than 33,000 acres of Texas Hill Country in western Travis County. Boating, hiking, wine bars, breweries, and Jonestown’s growing local scene are just down the hill, with Cedar Park and Leander within easy reach. Yet your home can still sit high above it all, surrounded by acreage, open sky, and the rolling Hill Country landscape. Approximate property boundaries are marked with yellow flags. Come walk the land, explore the possibilities, and see the views for yourself!
