The Cat Mountain neighborhood of Northwest Hills Texas is in a unique location in the Austin area, perched on top of a decent-sized hill as if it were made for viewing sunsets. It’s an affluent neighborhood, punctuated by newly renovated, spacious homes.
An Island in the Sky
Like a bird on top of the forest canopy, Cat Mountain provides sensational views in every direction. Just imagine walking out your door to your new home and…
- Look to the south, and you’ll see the green foliage of Bright Leaf Preserve, a 200 acre park with tranquil forest vibes and a view of its own
- To the southwest, you’ll spot the calm current of the Colorado River
- To the northwest lies the Bull Creek Greenbelt where you may just spot herons flying above, and you’ll also be filled with envy when spying on the mountain bikers and volleyball games in Bull Creek District Park.
- The panorama doesn’t end until you lay eyes on the beautiful view of the greater Austin area to the east, all abuzz with shops, restaurants, and cafes.
Quick Access to the Best of Austin
Feeling a tinge of vertigo from the top of Cat Mountain? Stroll down just 5 minutes to a boat launch for a day of fishing, swimming, and scuba diving along Lake Travis’ 65 miles of water.
Or, cruise just 15 minutes to downtown Austin for craft beer from one of 50 breweries, authentic tex-mex, or a legendary plate of sweet tangy goodness at Stubb’s Barbecue.
Simply put, not only is the view unbeatable, but you have the serenity of a quiet, upscale neighborhood surrounded by parks and recreation, and just minutes from city living and all-day adventures.
Luxurious Living
Cat Mountain is a newer neighborhood, with the first homes being built in the 1970’s, but before you cringe from pumpkin-colored shag carpet, you’ll be pleasantly surprised by the fact that most homes have been handsomely renovated since. Good schools and friendly neighbors round out the feel of the place.
