Property Description
Deep water Lake Travis waterfront home with private boat dock on the South Shore of Lake Travis, offering panoramic main-body views just minutes from RR 620. Set on 1.65 acres extending into the deepest portion of a protected no-wake cove, the property provides calm dockside waters and sweeping views across Lake Travis. Completed in 2013 and enhanced with over $400,000 in upgrades, the 3,898-square-foot residence is designed for luxury waterfront living and effortless entertaining with vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, stone fireplace, and walls of glass framing the lake and creating seamless indoor-outdoor living. The open-concept kitchen remodeled in 2023 offers refined finishes and excellent functionality, complemented by updated lighting, an updated half bath, and interior and exterior painting completed in 2022. The main-level primary suite captures lake views and features a spa-style bath with dual-entry walk-in shower, soaking tub, and oversized walk-in closet. Three additional bedrooms with water views are served by three and a half additional bathrooms, along with a study, full laundry room, and gym or flex space with updated flooring (2025). Outdoor living includes upper and lower decks with 180-degree Lake Travis views, a full outdoor kitchen, and fireplace ideal for entertaining. Balcony resurfacing was completed in 2023, and the lower-level media and flex space with wet bar opens to the waterfront terrace. A 2025 outdoor tram provides convenient access to the private boat dock extended in 2022 with boat lift and upgraded electrical, offering quick access to calm cove waters and open-water boating. Additional improvements include a geothermal HVAC system installed in 2024 for energy-efficient comfort. Located in Lake Travis ISD with convenient access to marinas, golf, dining, recreation, and Austin shopping, entertainment, and airport access, this property represents an exceptional opportunity for private deep-water Lake Travis waterfront living.
