Luxurious Lake Austin lakefront property. You will likely not find another one like it in Austin right on the lake! Newly remodeled, modern/new furnishings, immaculate...not your typical vacation rental lakehouse!
Located in West Austin 15-20 minutes from downtown and 10 minutes from Fazio and Crenshaw golf courses (at Barton Creek Resort), this recently remodeled, 3600 square foot lakefront home provides an outstanding family vacation setting all year long.
Conveniently located for access to both downtown Austin and the Texas hill country, you will never want to leave this beautiful setting! Some of the best water for skiing, wake-boarding, tubing, kayaking and dining on the lake are just a few steps out of the back door.
Large decks and a fenced 2-story children's playscape make this place ideal for vacationing and enjoying time with your family. Two stories of decks with great views of the lake are perfect for relaxing. A spiral stair connects the upper deck to the main, lower deck. The fenced-in play scape area is great for small children. Protected from the lake and street, a small, enclosed gravel play area with great fort, slide, and swings and baby swing provide hours of entertainment.
Nearby Barton Creek Country club offers 4 PGA-class golf courses, along with dozens of other destination golf courses around Austin. Full service spas at Barton Creek and Lake Austin Spa & Resort also nearby.
You are only 15-20 minutes from live music venues and outstanding restaurants in Downtown Austin and popular South Congress entertainment districts. Many outdoor hill country attractions are within a 30 to 90 minute drive including Fredricksburg, Enchanted Rock, Hamilton Pools, Lake Travis, and more!
If you didn't already know, the great Austin weather allows golf and water sports virtually year round. Reserve well in advance for the perfect Austin vacation throughout the year.
House is fully and newly remodeled with the best in contemporary finishes (granite countertops, stainless steel appliances & hardware, bamboo & concrete floors, modern fixtures, etc.) with brand new or like new furniture.
*** This house is perfect for relaxation and gatherings for families and small, "mellow" groups, as it is located in a residential neighborhood. Sorry, but due to neighborhood restrictions, we are unable to host weddings, parties or potentially noisy or late-night outside gatherings/groups. We have a strict limit of 8 overnight guests and 3-4 cars.
*** Maid service (cleaning, laundry, errands, food/beverage stocking) is available at very reasonable rates. Eat Out In and other restaurant delivery.
*** We would consider selling the house to the right buyer/situation.

Why the Owner Chose Austin Lake Estates
This is our home, but we currently live in Dallas due to a sick child (who is doing very well). All rentals help us stay afloat - we are not in this for profit but by necessity!
