At $689K, this is the best value in all of Travis Country—by far! If you’ve been waiting for the right deal in a top-tier location, this is it. The crown jewel of 4831 Trail Crest is the expansive sport pool—a true backyard centerpiece that transforms the property into a private retreat. Whether you're swimming laps, playing with the kids, or entertaining on the newly built deck, this outdoor space delivers the lifestyle buyers dream of during Austin’s long, hot summers. Inside, vaulted ceilings, walls of windows, and an open-concept layout fill the home with natural light. Recent updates include luxury vinyl plank flooring, a suite of sleek stainless steel appliances, new fencing, modern exterior paint colors and an oversized garage with epoxy flooring—offering both functionality and flexible space for storage, hobbies, or a home gym. Set on a quiet, tree-lined street in coveted Travis Country, the home also provides access to private trails, tennis courts, pools, community gardens and parks—all just 12 minutes from downtown and minutes to Zilker Park, and Sunset Valley Shopping. It’s the perfect blend of natural serenity, city access, and community living—at a price that’s unmatched in the neighborhood.
