Property Description
This 2,500-square-foot home sits where Hill Country character meets Lake Travis living. Four bedrooms, three baths, and a layout built for how people actually live, not how homes are supposed to look. Inside, the design prioritizes function over formality. Large windows frame lake views without sacrificing privacy. Living areas connect naturally, creating spaces you'll use daily rather than reserve for company. The kitchen flows into gathering areas lit by natural light and finished with durable materials chosen for real life, not staging. The outdoor space significantly enhances the home's appeal. The pool, hot tub, covered pavilion, outdoor kitchen, and multiple seating areas create a genuine living space, not merely decorative amenities. Mornings bring deer to the feeding station. Evenings settle around the fire pit as the sun drops behind the hills. This outdoor space is designed for use, not for photography. Lake Travis is 0.7 miles away at LVPOA Cody Park, a two-minute drive or a walkable distance, making water access part of your routine rather than an occasional event. Furnishings convey with the sale, with minor exclusions for specific personal items. The home currently operates as a successful short-term rental. Bookings, operating history, and turnkey setup transfer with the sale, allowing you to continue generating income immediately or transition to personal use on your timeline. The infrastructure supports either path without modification. What distinguishes this home is integration. The pieces work together: a location near water, outdoor living that extends usable square footage, natural surroundings that deliver daily wildlife encounters, and a flexible use that accommodates a primary residence, weekend retreat, or income property without compromise. This is a finished environment, not a project. The work is done. The choice is yours.
