Lake Austin Homes For Sale

View ListingsMore Info

Lake Austin is located in Texas’ capital city but it’s far from an urban environment. Situated just west of Downtown and home to some of the most stunning luxury real estate in the area, Lake Austin embodies just about everything we love about Texas’ one-of-a-kind capital city.

Located just downriver from Lake Travis, Lake Austin is the last lake in the chain of Highland Lakes. It’s a long, thin body of water that provides plenty of shoreline for Lake Austin real estate. From these shores, you can lose yourself in the incredible views of the lake itself and the towering limestone cliffs that border it.

The Lake Austin waterfront homes that are for sale vary in size and amenities but none are worth less than one million dollars and some are listed upwards of $35 million. There are also some Lake Austin Waterfront Lots available for individuals who want to design their perfect home. NOTE: Quite a few Lake Austin listings never hit the MLS; however, we have access to off-market opportunities. Call us for more details...

Living on Lake Austin

Lake Austin is a constant-level lake, which means that you will have water, drought or no drought. This also makes it a perfect place for wakeboarding, wakesurfing, or water skiing. Its river-style curves mean you can always find a straightaway that’s blocked by the wind and offers calmer water. Kayakers and canoers will love the long expanse, 20.3 miles of water with only a gentle current. With a surface area of 1,599 acres, there is plenty of room for everyone. 

Around Lake Austin, you will find several luxury neighborhoods including Tarrytown, known for its historic homes, Steiner Ranch, with its resort-style amenities, and West Lake Hills, an area known for its suburban feel with tree-lined streets and a family-friendly atmosphere. 

Lake Austin real estate offers a wide variety of architectural styles, designs, and living spaces. Homes for sale in Lake Austin range from condos and townhomes to villas and even sprawling estates. No matter what your vision of a perfect lakefront home is, you can find it here. 

Entertainment and Nightlife

Because the homes for sale in Lake Austin are just a short distance from Downtown Austin, there’s no limit to the dining, entertainment, and nightlife venues close by. 

Within a few minutes you can enjoy outdoor activities at Zilker Park, or take a dip in Barton Springs Pool. Afterward, you can grab a great meal at any of the critically acclaimed restaurants in Downtown Austin, or catch a movie at the infamous Alamo Drafthouse on South Lamar. After all of that, you can still visit any of Austin’s entertainment districts, where you will find live music, popular breweries, art galleries, and acclaimed events.

No matter your personality or taste, you will find something you love to do in Austin.

Lake Austin Schools
