The backyard is where this nearly half-acre property sets itself apart. Designed to be used throughout the year, the outdoor spaces include a pool and spa, outdoor kitchen, fire pit, patio and hardscape areas surrounded by mature landscaping, with landscape lighting extending the setting into the evening. There is room to gather around the pool in summer, cook and dine outside, or shift to the fire pit when the weather cools, all on a 0.471-acre lot tucked into a cul-de-sac. Inside, the 2,623-square-foot home offers 3 bedrooms and 3 full baths with multiple living and dining areas that provide flexibility beyond the main gathering spaces. Wood floors, high ceilings, a gas-log fireplace, wet bar and French doors add character to the interior, while the covered patio creates another connection to the outdoor living areas. Significant improvements include a new roof in July 2024, Pella windows and doors in 2022, upstairs and downstairs AC units replaced in 2017, a 2025 water heater, 2023 garage door and 2021 property fence. The pool, spa and outdoor kitchen were added in 2014, followed by the rock garden, hardscape path, fire pit and patio in 2016. Two storage sheds provide additional utility without giving up garage space. With no HOA, this Mountain Park Cove property combines an established Northwest Austin home with an outdoor environment that has been thoughtfully developed over time.
