8915 Fairway Hill Dr

Even if you are not a golfer, having a front-row seat to a well-manicured, evergreen fairway is hard to beat. And this is only one of the perks to living on this property.*****

Even in the best of times, there is a shortage of homes for sale on the Balcones Country Club golf course. This property has a footprint of a little over one acre (per the tax records) and adjoins (for 259 feet per tax records) the 16th hole of this golf course. The view from the back yard allows unobstructed panoramic views of sunsets as there are no homes on the opposite side of this fairway. Forbes (Sept 9th, 2024) rates Austin as the No. 7th in top public schools (US News).
*****
The home was built in 1979 with exterior walls of rattlesnake limestone. The metal roof gives the appearance of Spanish-barrel-clay tiles. Within the home are two great rooms, each with a stone fireplace. Saltillo tile is throughout the kitchen, dining room and hallways. The original dining room was converted into a music room. The primary bedroom has an en suite bathroom and a walk-in closet. A second bathroom is located between the other three bedrooms. The patio (12' x 24') has a fiberglass greenhouse roofing and has been enclosed in the colder months, forming a greenhouse.

This estate has many large live oak trees as well as an extensive overgrowth giving the property a hidden feel.
