Tucked away on a peaceful half-acre overlooking the water, this quaint two-bedroom, two-bath lakefront home offers the perfect blend of charm, privacy, and natural beauty. From the moment you arrive, the large front porch welcomes you to slow down, breathe in the fresh air, and enjoy the quiet rhythm of lake life.
Inside, you’ll find a spacious kitchen with abundant cabinet space—ideal for cooking, gathering, and lingering over morning coffee. The oversized primary bedroom features its own ensuite bath, creating a comfortable and restful retreat at the end of the day.
Step outside and the magic continues. Custom-built stone steps lead you down to your private boat dock, with two generous landing areas designed for taking in the views, watching the sunset, or simply enjoying the peaceful surroundings. The treeline shown in the lake photos reflects the typical water level, giving you a true sense of the shoreline.
This property backs directly to the Balcones Preserve, ensuring that nothing will ever be built behind you. It’s a dream setting for nature lovers, with miles of hiking and wildlife right at your doorstep. You’ll also enjoy private access to the park, and with no HOA, you have the freedom to live the way you want—no restrictions, no hassle.
A well sits on the property for added flexibility, with city water available if preferred. Investors, be ready to jump on the perfect opportunity to make this home a great VRBO or AirBnB!
Whether you’re looking for a weekend getaway or a full-time lakeside haven, this charming home offers serenity, character, and a rare slice of Texas Hill Country living.
