Lost Creek Neighborhood Video Tour

Lost Creek, located in the Eanes School District is one of Austin’s finest neighborhoods! I do happen to be a bit prejudiced as we have lived in Lost Creek since 1992. There are so many good things I could tell you about Lost Creek that I finally decided to take the leap into video as the best way to really showcase this wonderful neighborhood. You will have to forgive my somewhat serious demeanor during most of the video. Most of the people who know me will be surprised at how serious I seem to be but honestly…I was just trying to remember what I needed to say and somehow S L O W my speech down to a discernable level!

I invite your comments and criticisms (about me or the video, not Lost Creek because I am somewhat territorial) as I plan to do more videos in the future. If you have any questions about the neighborhood, homes in the area, the schools or anything else, please contact me. I hope you enjoy this video tour of Lost Creek. If as they say, a picture is worth 1,000 words then this short film will surely convey how much I love living and working in the neighborhood I call home! The last scene was shot from our back deck which overlooks a serene valley that is traversed by the actual creek from which our neighborhood got its name!

My name is Russell Lewis, I have twenty one years experience assisting buyers and sellers in Austin’s finest neighborhoods. I am not all things to all people and concentrate the majority of my business in Central, West and Southwest Austin and the Westlake/Eanes School District. If you or anyone you know is anticipating purchasing or selling real estate and would like to learn more about living The Good Life in Austin Texas I would be happy to be of assistance, email or call my mobile number for a private consultation at your convenience!

Phenonmenal job Russel. This is fantastic. I would have featured it if you put in the Vbloggers and YouTube Thursdays groups. I'm glad Richard encouraged you to join, I think I've subscribed to your YouTube channel, if not, I shall fix that.

Dear Russell,

I loved the video it looked great. My only advice is don't be soooo serious & smile more. We had to wait until the very end to see you smile.
