Overview
Property Description
Turn-key lake living on Lake Travis! This fully renovated three-story home with panoramic water and hill views from every side, with lake access just steps away via a private HOA lakefront park (no dues).

The second floor holds a primary suite with a private balcony and spa-like bath, plus two more bedrooms and a shared bath. The first floor has a full guest/in-law suite with its own entrance, kitchen, and living area. Outside: a fenced backyard with fire pit and fountain, a two-car garage plus carport, and low-cost utilities (well, propane, septic). Minutes from dining, marinas, and Volente Beach Village, in sought-after Leander ISD. 4,044 sq ft per appraiser — lake living at its finest!
