A Private Hill Country Retreat with Lake Austin Access and Iconic Views
Welcome to a rare opportunity to live expansively, elegantly, and immersed in nature at The Rockcliff Estate, an exceptional 3-acre private compound in the heart of Westlake. Masterfully designed by renowned architect Luis Jauregui, this 6,850± sq ft residence is a sanctuary of sophistication and serenity, blending timeless design, curated luxury, and direct access to the vibrant waters of Lake Austin.
From the moment you arrive, the estate sets a tone of privacy and prestige. A dramatic serpentine stone wall and gated entrance embrace the lush, landscaped grounds, creating an atmosphere of quiet grandeur. And just across Rockcliff Road lies a piece of rare Austin magic… private deeded access to Lake Austin, offering your own launch point for paddleboarding at sunrise, kayaking beneath the trees, or hopping on a pontoon boat for an evening cruise. It’s the ultimate lifestyle for the water lover who also seeks the comforts of a refined, architectural masterpiece.
Step inside and you’re greeted by a sense of effortless scale and warmth. Soaring 26-foot ceilings, walls of glass, and a sweeping spiral staircase set the tone for what’s to come. Every inch of the home is designed to feel both awe-inspiring and welcoming. Rich textures, stucco, hand-laid Texas stone, a tile roof, and warm travertine and longleaf pine flooring combine Old World charm with Hill Country elegance. Natural light dances through every room, connecting you to the outdoors while enhancing the beauty of the interiors.
The main-level primary suite is your personal sanctuary, with its own sitting area, cozy fireplace, and coffee bar to start your mornings in peace. The spa-worthy bath features custom travertine pillow tile, an oversized walk-in shower, and a cedar-lined dressing closet with custom built-ins. It’s a space designed for slowing down, relaxing, and feeling truly at home.
Entertain effortlessly from the chef’s kitchen, where high-end appliances, a central island, designer lighting, and a generous walk-in pantry elevate every gathering whether you're hosting a dinner party or simply enjoying a quiet night in. The adjacent family room, framed by floor-to-ceiling windows and anchored by a stone fireplace, invites connection and calm.
This home was designed for living well in every way with four additional en-suite bedrooms, each offering generous closets and privacy for family or guests. A dedicated home gym, oversized four-car garage, and two expansive covered patios provide the flexibility and space to live fully, whether you’re working, playing, or just breathing in the panoramic views including the iconic 360 Pennybacker Bridge shimmering in the distance.
Situated across five lots, this estate offers the opportunity to expand even further with the available adjacent waterfront property at 1810 Rockcliff, a chance to create your ultimate legacy compound on Lake Austin.
Imagine waking up to still water and golden skies, enjoying coffee on the terrace, hosting friends by firelight, and launching a kayak from your own shoreline all while being minutes from the heart of Austin.
This is not just a home; it’s a lifestyle of uncommon beauty, balance, and intention. Welcome to The Rockcliff Estate where the lake meets luxury, and every day feels like a retreat.
