AUSTIN, Texas - May 20, 2013 - PRLog -- Austin, Texas -  Northwest Austin House (within Loop 360) delivers incomparable Austin outdoor family living. Few homes in the Northwest Hills 1A area offer such a huge lot with rolling lawn, massive, historic oaks, volleyball-size pool, area for trampoline and large screened porch for entertaining family, friends and neighbors.

Homes located on prime property within the 360 loop in Austin and in the exemplarity Doss Elementary school district are in high demand.  The Sprucewood home is strategically located on a cul-de-sac in the Northwest Hills area and is close to the preferred Doss, Murchison and Anderson schools.

Kids enjoy the swimming parties with room for all, the slip'n slide thrills on the rolling lawn, the birthday celebrations on the screened porch and the tree climbing adventures in the gracious, historic oaks.

Inside the house, there are arched doorways in the entry, a living room for Christmas and formal entertaining, family room with rich wood paneling and fireplace, formal dining adjoining the wet bar and screen porch and a kitchen remodeled with granite tile countertops. The roomy master suite includes hill country views, huge tub and shower.

The prime lot continues down the hill to Lakewood Drive and Bull Creek. The owner will be within easy jogging distance of the scenic Bull Creek park where the ruts of covered wagon wheels can still be seen in the creek bed. The home is 2 minutes from Lake Austin boat ramps as well.
