There's a reason "the house on the hill" usually tops most people's dream-home wish list: jaw-dropping, uninterrupted views. 2305 Camino Alto, which is perched on one of Austin's highest hilltops, boasts some of the most incredible views imaginable.

From its expansive patio, you can gaze out over Lake Austin and downtown, which is only 15 minutes away. But those views aren't just confined to the outdoor living area; thanks to floor-to-ceiling windows, they can be enjoyed from nearly every room in the 2,793-square-foot house.

That includes the three living rooms, two of which boast fireplaces, and the three bedrooms. Though the two full bathrooms and one powder room might be the only spots missing out on the vistas, their tasteful upgrades make up for it.

The home's lot, which is a little over a half acre, enjoys privacy in the neighborhood of Westlake Highlands. That sense of serenity is heightened by the large oak trees that surround the property, shading both the house and the pool, which looks out over the unbroken panorama.

Built in 1974 and designed by Leon Chandler, the home also boasts an open floorplan to go with its high-quality design and materials. A two-car garage and access to the coveted Eanes ISD round out the desirable perks.

Cindy Goldrick, founder of Wilson & Goldrick Realtors, has the listing, which is priced at $1,949,000.
