Some homes come with a lake view. This one comes with a key to the water! Offered in Austin's coveted Eanes ISD, this home comes with a membership in AVAI with the main perk being a private neighborhood recreational facility on Lake Austin just down the hill from the house. It features separate multi-level deck areas, an outdoor BBQ area, a protected swim area and 3 boat slips for temporary overnight mooring. Bundled membership is subject to AVAI Board approval process and Bylaws. For a buyer who wants access to Lake Austin without the carrying costs of a lakefront estate, this is one of the lowest-cost points of entry! The home itself sits on a flat corner lot with 150 linear feet of frontage on Liveoak, the main street into Aqua Verde, and 90 linear feet on Charles. The front yard is a genuine live oak canopy with more than 20 mature trees, including 10 live oaks over 50 feet tall, plus mature elms and juniper, all supported by an irrigation system and extensive indigenous landscaping. Inside, 3,297 square feet (per appraiser) spread across a layout built for real life. A 2000 addition and full remodel added a 1,040 sq ft upstairs primary suite, plus a 660 sq ft downstairs expansion that brought a fourth bedroom, an enlarged kitchen, a laundry room and a new staircase. One-inch cherry hardwood anchors the living room; ceramic tile runs through the kitchen, all three baths and the laundry. Out back you'll find a 580 sq ft outdoor deck and a 225 sq ft screened cabana room. A 420 sq ft two-car garage and a framed 130 sq ft storage/workshop building round out the site. Big-ticket items have been handled: new GAF Timberline dimensional roof and gutters (2021), washer and dryer (2020), added blown-in attic insulation, and full documentation on file including original working drawings and Travis County building permit. A pre-inspection with owners’ corrective actions, dedicated septic inspection report, and AVAI Bylaws are available to buyers and agents upon request.

One of Rob Roy’s most special estates, set on nearly four acres with Hill Country and Lake Austin views. For those who value privacy, security and space, Rob Roy stands alone among Westlake neighborhoods, with strictly controlled access through 24-hour guarded gates, large estate lots and quiet streets, all less than 20 minutes from downtown Austin. Originally designed by Shiflet Group Architects, this classic Texas-style home was extensively renovated in 2021, again with Shiflet Group Architects, construction by Burt Group Contractors and interiors by Rachel Mast. The current owners later brought in acclaimed designer Cami Wright for its most recent refresh. The home was designed to live almost entirely as a one-story. The main level includes the primary suite, office, formal living and dining rooms, three additional en suite bedrooms and a three-car garage. At the heart of the home is a large kitchen completely open to the breakfast and family rooms. The primary suite is privately positioned at one end of the house with beautiful views and an exceptionally large closet, while the three secondary bedrooms are unusually generous in both size and storage. Upstairs is an additional guest suite and an enormous game room with space for a gym, media area, billiards, ping pong or just about anything else you can imagine. An additional bedroom and full bath at the far end make an ideal bunk room for sleepovers and guests. Outside, expansive front and back lawns surround a negative-edge pool, oversized covered porch with outdoor fireplace, beautiful landscaping and a sport court with its own covered seating area. The residence is also privately gated from the street. Located within Eanes ISD and zoned to Bridge Point Elementary, Hill Country Middle School and Westlake High School. There are bigger homes in Austin, newer homes and more expensive homes. There are very few I would rather call home.

Set behind gates atop a rare, flat hilltop plateau in Westlake Hills, The Majestic captures an entirely unobstructed panorama across Lake Austin, Mount Bonnell, the UT, Capitol Tower, Muny Golf Course, downtown, Lady Bird Lake, St. Edward’s and beyond. Offered as the complete approximately 3.7-acre estate across two separate lots, this is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to control an extraordinary piece of Austin. The additional lot preserves privacy and critical sightlines while creating significant potential for future expansion into a larger private compound.

Six bedrooms, eight full and two half baths, a chef’s kitchen, multiple bars, expansive living areas, two offices, elevator, generous suites, extensive storage and substantial garage capacity create effortless living at scale. More than 4,000 square feet of covered outdoor living includes grand covered terraces, outdoor dining, fireplaces and fire features, manicured lawns, private trails, and a pool and spa overlooking the lake and city. Nearly 9,000 additional square feet of walk-out lower-level space offers extraordinary potential for a collector’s car gallery, wellness retreat, gym, golf simulator, theater, wine cellar, speakeasy and more. Commanding views. Usable acreage at elevation. Two lots. Exceptional construction. Extraordinary privacy. The Majestic is a legacy estate that simply cannot be duplicated.
