11709 Mountain Top Cir

A remarkable opportunity to homestead or invest in 10.317 acres in the heart of the Texas Hill Country. Located within Leander ISD and tucked into a quiet, scenic stretch of landscape, this property borders a 580-acre section of the Balcones Canyonlands National Wildlife Refuge—part of more than 25,000 acres of federally protected habitat—offering lasting privacy, unspoiled views, and the peace of mind that comes with land preserved for generations. The 10.317-acre tract is surveyed from a larger 34.851-acre property, giving buyers flexibility to expand. Sellers are open to negotiating additional acreage, including the full 34.851 acres—featuring a 2-bed, 2.5-bath home, oversized garage/workshop, septic, well, and electricity—or a 24.534-acre option that includes the home and improvements while preserving a generous natural buffer. Whether planning a custom residence, equestrian retreat, recreational escape, or investment in a high-growth corridor, the land offers exceptional versatility. Its rolling terrain, location within the ETJ of Lago Vista, and lack of subdivision restrictions support a wide range of uses—from barndominiums to short-term rentals to multi-generational living. Pedernales Electric can be extended to the tract, and Jonestown Water Supply Company has confirmed a water-line extension is possible—making residential or development plans that much more attainable. The area’s minimal permitting requirements, accessible utilities, and limited oversight help keep the path to building refreshingly straightforward. Sellers are also including a $5,000 credit toward buyer closing costs — a strong incentive that adds real value to this Hill Country opportunity. About 20 minutes from Cedar Park and under an hour from Austin, the property offers easy access while remaining peacefully removed. Its usable acreage, respected school district, and protected surroundings make it a standout in western Travis County.
