Welcome to 5206 Backtrail Dr, a peaceful haven nestled in the scenic and highly sought-after neighborhood of North Cat Mountain. Thoughtful landscaping, mature trees, and a stunning wraparound upper porch offer standout curb appeal before you step inside. Soaring vaulted ceilings and walls of windows fill the living space with light, centering around a striking floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace. The heart of the home is a bright kitchen with generous counter space, stainless steel appliances and a large window that perfectly frames views of the tree-filled backyard. Two secondary bedrooms and a full bath complete the main level, along with thoughtful storage throughout including a closet under the stairs, a finished-out attic walk-in closet and an extra-large temperature-controlled garage. Upstairs the spacious primary suite feels like a retreat offering high ceilings, a walk-in closet and direct access to the expansive wraparound porch where you can take in sweeping views of the Northwest Hills and even catch Fourth of July fireworks. The en-suite bath features dual vanities, a walk-in shower and a soaking tub creating a spa-like setting to unwind. A flexible bonus room upstairs currently serves as an office but could easily become a nursery, yoga space or custom dressing room. The backyard is where this home truly shines with nearly a third of an acre of lush tranquility, multiple decks for lounging and dining, a grassy area for pets or play, 8-foot fencing for privacy and outdoor lighting that brings the space to life after dark. Located just minutes from shopping and dining along Far West and 2222, with quick access to Mopac and Loop 360, 5206 Backtrail Dr offers the perfect balance of tucked-away hill country serenity and everyday convenience. You're zoned to highly rated AISD schools including Doss Elementary, Murchison Middle School and Anderson High School and surrounded by nature trails, neighborhood parks and the best of Northwest Austin living.
