In the rolling hills of Spicewood, on a legendary tract of land just outside Austin, a new standard for private living is being established: Loraloma. This is an enclave architected for legacy—a private community where curated experiences and thoughtful design converge with the soul of the Texas Hill Country. Now open, the centerpiece of Loraloma makes its global debut: a private championship golf course by David McLay Kidd, the world's most sought-after golf architect. As its inaugural season commences, founding members will be the first to play this 18-hole links-style masterpiece, a privilege reserved exclusively for residents. Beyond the course, the estate offers a lifestyle of serene adventure, from a natural swimming grotto and a private river club on the Pedernales to a 40-mile network of equestrian trails. Estate Lot 15 The offering of Estate Lot 15 presents a rare opportunity to join this landmark community at its inception. Thoughtfully positioned within the Limestone Gulch neighborhood, this homesite provides effortless access to signature amenities, including the swimming hole, a stocked fishing pond, and the Fieldhouse—the residents’ private club for wellness, fitness, and social gatherings. Paired with architecturally significant plans for residences over 4,000 square feet, this offering streamlines the creation of your private retreat. It represents a compelling value and a premier opportunity to establish a legacy at Loraloma as it is unveiled to the world.
Spicewood, located between Lake Travis and the Pedernales River, is a Hill Country and lakeside Marble Falls neighborhood with winding ranch roads and limestone bluffs. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Spur 191 and TX-71 junction, where roadside barbecue, a general-store feel, and live-music patios set the pace. Community pillars include Opie’s Barbecue, Spicewood Vineyards, and Krause Springs. Architecture leans to ranch-style homes, modern Hill Country builds, and lake-area retreats with big porches and metal roofs. Days revolve around water access, scenic drives, and trail time in the Balcones Canyonlands. Evenings track toward tasting rooms and low-key outdoor gathering spots.
