About Round Mountain
Round Mountain is a residential neighborhood in Lakeway, Texas, located off Ranch Road 620 in western Travis County. The neighborhood consists of two distinct sections: an older section (Round Mountain Estates) with homes built in the 1980s, and a newer section formally platted as Round Mountain Estates 02, which was built between 2004 and 2015 and rebranded as Bella Montagna.
Bella Montagna is a gated community with keypad entry, comprising 84 estate-sized homesites. Homes in this section range from approximately 3,265 to 8,223 square feet on lots of approximately 1 acre, with a median size of about 4,549 square feet. The section hosted the 2005 Austin Parade of Homes, and builders included Partners in Building, Monterey Homes, Jauregui Builders, and Old World Builders. Exteriors feature Mediterranean and Italian-inspired architectural styles including Tuscan and Southwestern designs.
