This is a rare opportunity to own 2.5 acres of lakefront land with direct shoreline access and a shared dock. The shared dock provides convenient boat storage, while the cove offers added privacy away from main lake traffic, making lake living easy and enjoyable. It is well suited for Airbnb investors, full-time lake living, or developers seeking a distinctive project. With generous space and flexible use, the property offers many ways to create something truly special. The existing home provides a solid starting point with 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and an attached garage. It offers excellent potential for renovation or redesign to match a variety of visions. One of the standout features is the expansive lower-level open patio, already prepared for customization. This area is ideal for creating an outdoor living space, an entertainment area, or a seamless indoor-outdoor layout designed for comfort and hosting. The land itself adds significant value. The 2.5-acre tract creates potential to subdivide into two or even three lots, creating a strong investment opportunity as demand for waterfront property continues to grow. Few properties offer this combination of acreage, lake access, and flexibility. The lifestyle offered by this property is a key highlight. Direct shoreline access allows for the creation of a beach-like lakeside setting where time on the water feels effortless. Surrounded by native landscaping on a quiet street, the property feels peaceful and private while remaining close to shopping, dining, and entertainment options. With impressive views, rare lake access, and outstanding potential, this is a unique opportunity to bring a lakefront vision to life.
Travis Southwest, located between Barton Creek Greenbelt and the Hill Country ridgeline, is a residential and outdoorsy Austin neighborhood with limestone hillsides and winding, tree-lined roads. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Mopac Expressway frontage near the Barton Creek Square area, where big-box retail, local eateries, and steady traffic set a practical, on-the-go tone. Housing leans toward 1970s–1990s ranch-style homes and townhome communities tucked into rolling terrain. Trailheads and creek corridors shape daily routines more than a traditional main street. Barton Creek Greenbelt access points and nearby preserves keep the landscape close. Barton Creek Square and the Alamo Drafthouse Cinema at Slaughter Lane serve as familiar gathering anchors.
