Soak in stunning lake and hill country views from this Tuscan-style retreat perched on the deep-water Sandy Creek Arm of Lake Travis. Thoughtfully designed for lakeside living and effortless entertaining, this home features a new private dock with a boat slip and a separate space for jet skis, plus a newly built deck and pergola perfectly positioned to capture the sweeping vistas. The main level hosts a spacious primary suite with a cozy fireplace and wall of windows framing the water. The open-concept living room showcases floor-to-ceiling windows and a striking stone fireplace, while the chef’s kitchen impresses with granite counters, a commercial-style gas range with vent hood, and generous storage. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the dining area, where more lake views, built-ins, and another dramatic stone fireplace create a memorable setting for gatherings. Upstairs offers a second primary suite and two guest bedrooms, each with oversized window seats that double as twin beds. Multi-level decks and patios invite you to savor the outdoors from every angle. Additional upgrades include a whole-house filtration system and new water collection tank. Minutes from Sandy Creek Marina, Volente Beach Water Park, and surrounded by nature, this is the ultimate Lake Travis lifestyle experience.
