A $300,000 renovation, two lots, and Lake Travis filling the windows: this 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath estate above the Bee Creek arm is the whole package. It sits on approximately 1.5 acres, and the lot directly behind the home conveys with the sale, so the privacy stays yours. A brick and limestone facade and a two-story arched entry set a formal tone, then the house opens up. Soaring ceilings and triple arched transom windows frame Lake Travis, the Austin skyline and miles of rolling hills, and the view shows up in nearly every room. The renovation transformed the kitchen and primary bath, with fresh paint, new lighting and wide-plank flooring throughout. The kitchen pairs black lower cabinetry with crisp white uppers, quartz counters, gold hardware, a black statement vent hood and a sink window aimed straight at the lake. The main-level primary suite has tray ceilings, crown molding and a sitting area that faces the sunset. Its bath was rebuilt from the studs: black cabinetry, a freestanding soaking tub, a frameless glass shower, charcoal herringbone tile against marble-look floors and lighting chosen to match. Five distinct living areas give the floor plan real flexibility for two home offices, extended family, guests or simply spreading out. An upstairs retreat with its own kitchenette can serve as a game room, a guest suite or a second living room. Outside is where this property earns its reputation. A multi-level sandstone terrace surrounds the infinity-edge pool and spa, terraced limestone walls add structure and privacy, and a fire pit, covered patio and upper and lower gathering areas all face the same wide-open view. Evenings end in the spa with the sun going down over the water. A three-car garage, private well and septic, low tax rate and Lake Travis ISD round it out in the Vistas at Lake Travis. Renovated, private and hard to duplicate on the lake at this price, with two lots for the price of one.
