- SENDERA NEIGHBORHOOD: 8904 West Hove Loop is meant for living. Single owner home tucked into a cul-de-bubble in the established Sendera neighborhood of southwest Austin, this freshly painted inside and out 2,086 square foot two-story home backs directly to a greenbelt and offers a backyard experience that feels genuinely removed from the city, even though you are minutes from everything that makes Austin great. The open floorplan is anchored by striking architectural lines, a custom staircase, and walls of windows that blur the line between inside and out. Slate tile flows from the front room through the kitchen, the staircase was refinished with wood and slate risers, and the kitchen has been upgraded with new countertops, backsplash, stove, dishwasher, sink, and faucet. The wood burning fireplace anchors the back living room and the walk-in pantry keeps everything organized. Outside, large strategically placed boulders create a cozy gathering space around a fire pit perfect for roasting s'mores with the kids or sitting quietly with a glass of wine long after everyone else has gone to bed. Stepping stones wind through mature trees to a wildlife watering area, a yoga deck was added for quiet morning practice, and the greenbelt beyond creates the feeling of a private nature retreat right in the heart of the city. The home received a $10,000 City of Austin weatherization package in 2024 including spray foam insulation, and a brand new HVAC was installed in 2025. The Violet Crown Trail, Austin's beloved 30-mile hike and bike corridor, is accessible directly from the neighborhood via Sendera Mesa Drive. Dick Nichols Park with splash pad, trails, tennis, and pool is minutes away, and the neighborhood pool, park, and grills are included in the HOA. Mopac puts downtown Austin within 20 minutes and the airport within 30. Whole Foods, Costco, HEB, Alamo Drafthouse and the Sunset Valley lineup are all within a short drive
