Nearly a third of an acre in the Travis Oaks community sets the stage for this fully furnished Lake Travis getaway, where wall-to-wall windows and multi-level decks capture water views from nearly every room. The home includes access to the neighborhood's community park, boat ramp, and dock on Lake Travis, making it easy to launch kayaks, paddleboards, and boats without the upkeep of a private dock. The 1,230-square-foot layout features a modern white kitchen with stone countertops and a tongue-and-groove ceiling, balanced by a painted brick fireplace and wood floors throughout the open living area. Two bedrooms, a fully renovated bath with white subway tile and black hexagon flooring, and a long enclosed den provide comfortable year-round living space. The primary bedroom sits toward the front of the home and includes its own closet, while the second bedroom runs larger. The kitchen opens directly to the living room and fireplace, and a dedicated laundry room is conveniently located just off the kitchen. A full-length rear deck connects to a second upper deck off the den, creating two distinct outdoor living spaces overlooking the property. A stone pathway leads to the front door, while outside, a wraparound deck with a built-in hot tub steps down to a stone terrace and fenced backyard shaded by mature oaks. The property is also well suited to the short-term rental market, which is allowed in the Travis Oaks subdivision. Sold fully furnished, the home is ready for weekend guests, rental income, or immediate move-in without the expense of furnishing it first. Lower Travis County taxes and HOA fees keep carrying costs manageable, while the location sits just 3/4 mile down the road from Flat Creek Estate Winery & Restaurant—an award-winning vineyard perfect for winding down with a glass of wine. This ideal Austin getaway bungalow also offers quick access to Main Street Marble Falls, Blue Bonnet Cafe, and Bear King Brewing.

6401 Muleshoe Bend is a rare offering in an exlcusive area. The estate is made up of 63 acres of rolling terrain; featuring grottos, abundant wildlife habitat and hills that drops away to a spectacular view of Lake Travis. Ag exempt and located at the end of a private road, this property offers privacy and a low property tax that is getting harder to find. The showpiece is a 3 bed 3.5 bath 3035 sq. ft. split level custom home with exposed wood structural beams and a towering one of a kind stone fireplace. From the living room the vaulted ceiling and large windows offer a dramatic view of Muleshoe Bend in the Colorado River and the Texas Hill Country becoming the backdrop of the homes interior. The quality of construction is the kind only found when the owner has a construction background and is building for their dream home. The large exposed beams are reclaimed from historic Fort Sam Houston, the limestone masonry is present inside and out, and the exterior logs were milled from Red and White Oak that was trucked down from Missouri. To replicate this level of construction with todays cost would not make financial sense. Having said that, although it is quite livable there is still some work to be done but it is mainly just sheetrock, paint and other finishing touches. With the bottom floor basically being a 1 bed 1 bath apartment, this home would be perfect for a multi-genretional family. Behind the home is a basic but very large open air work shop with loft, and a large barn with cross fenced pastures. The barn and pastures are used to run goats, but could easily be used as horse facilities as well. The terrain and lack of restrictions would allow another residence to be built that enjoys the same view as the main home.
