Backyard Bliss in River Ridge: One-Story Gem with Decked-Out Outdoor Living

Spacious sanctuary near Lake Austin, complete with mature trees and luxury finishes

Tucked behind an artistic privacy fence and shaded by towering oaks, this River Ridge retreat at 1017 S Quinlan Park Rd delivers the kind of peaceful, upscale vibe that’s hard to find—and even harder to leave. With 3,000 square feet of beautifully updated space on a lush corner lot, it’s equal parts serene hideaway and entertainer’s dream.

Step inside to an open floor plan that floods with natural light thanks to soaring ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows. The main living area connects seamlessly to a chef-worthy kitchen and formal dining space, while upgraded wood-style vinyl and hardwood floors bring warmth and elegance throughout. The primary suite is a true escape, boasting spa-like finishes, a generous walk-in closet, and double vanities for the win.

But let’s be honest—where this home really shines is outside. The expansive deck begs for backyard barbecues, morning coffee, or a little yoga under the oak canopy. Manicured landscaping and winding walkways make every step around the property feel like a stroll through a private park. Bonus: there’s a secondary living space and home office, plus access to a waterfront park, boat ramp, and picnic area just down the road.
