Perched on the bluff above Lake Austin, 3703 Cloudy Ridge Road sits on 2.3 gated acres with views that run up the lake to Mansfield Dam. The views of the home face southeast, so mornings start with the sun coming up over the hills and the water. Directly across the lake is Jessica Hollis Park, an LCRA public park, so the view looks onto parkland and open shoreline instead of a row of rooftops. A private gated drive winds through mature live oaks to the house, which was built in the 1980s and held by the same owners for decades. It has the character of that era: exposed timber beams, a spiral staircase, a wet bar, and walls of windows facing the lake. The great room combines a large family room with a secondary living room, divided by a double-sided fireplace. The kitchen has granite counters and a center island, with a breakfast nook beside it. Upstairs, two bedrooms share a hall bath. The top floor is a dedicated primary suite with a large bath. Separate guest quarters have their own bedroom, living room and bath. In all there are 4 bedrooms, 3.5 baths and 3,755 square feet. Outside, a wood deck and wide terraces step down to the pool, and an upper-level deck looks straight out over the water. The front of the property already has power and lighting from a former sand volleyball court, a ready-made spot for a sport court. There is also open land for gardens and a detached garage. This is a property for someone who sees the potential. Update the home, reimagine it, or build new on one of the best bluff sites on Lake Austin. A viewing deck on the bluff would turn every sunrise into an event. The setting also suits a weekend retreat close to town. You get the lake lifestyle without the upkeep of waterfront: no bulkhead, no dock, no shoreline to maintain. Public boat ramps for both Lake Austin and Lake Travis are about a mile away. Steiner Ranch shops, Lake Travis dining and the rest of the Hill Country are minutes away, and you come home to privacy and nothing but the view.
