17505 Hamilton Pool RD, Austin TX 78738
Austin, TX 78738 · Swensons Ridge
Single Family Residence for sale in Swensons Ridge
Overview
Property Description
Life along Hamilton Pool Road is all about the setting. Scenic drives, wide-open skies, beloved local restaurants, wineries, breweries, and some of the Hill Country's most beautiful landscapes are all part of everyday life. Nestled on 2.29 wooded acres, this established homesite is ready for its next chapter. The 1992 home requires extensive renovation, but the footprint offers a strong starting point for a complete transformation. Vaulted ceilings, a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace, generous living spaces, and a spacious primary suite with two walk-in closets, and two large secondaries along with a full guest bath provide the framework for a stunning reimagining. The wraparound porch is ready to become the place where mornings begin with coffee and evenings end with sweeping Hill Country sunsets on a rocking chair. A detached outbuilding adds valuable flexibility for a workshop, equipment, boat storage, or future hobby space. Beyond the home, the acreage is the real prize, with mature trees, open clearings, and room to expand, build additional structures, or create a multi-generational retreat while still preserving privacy. Stroll up the road for dinner at Layla's, ice cream at Grateful Custard, or spend weekends exploring Hamilton Pool, nearby wineries, breweries, and favorite Hill Country destinations. Zoned to highly regarded Lake Travis ISD with no HOA, a low 1.62 tax rate, easy access to Hwy 71. You’re just 7 miles from the Hill Country Galleria, and about 22 miles to Downtown Austin. The house needs vision. The setting speaks for itself. Bring your vision, your contractor, and your imagination, then come walk the land and see why this setting is worth the effort.
