Homes on Lake Austin in the Texas capital city score high for natural beauty and privacy. Add a slip for two boats, an indoor pickleball court and a two-year renovation, and you have a luxury escape just half an hour from downtown.
On the market is a recently reimagined home of 8,846 square feet.
The home at 13414 Shore Vista Drive sits on nearly three acres across the water from a nature preserve. The 8,846-square-foot home comes with 250 feet of waterfront on a quiet part of the lake, good for outdoor activities, such as kayaking and paddle boarding.
A motor court sits at the end of a driveway, providing ample space for parking.
Large windows in the six-bedroom home let in natural light and showcase bucolic panoramas of the waterway. “We fell in love with the land, the views and the potential of the property,” the homeowner recently said.
High ceilings and large bay windows are among the interior details of note.

French doors open the dining room to a large terrace patio.

The exterior was resurfaced with stone slurry and freshly painted stucco to give it a rustic Italian look and feel. Karmyn Kopfer Papavasiliou of Kopfer Taylor Interiors was the designer.
New white oak hardwood floors run throughout the home.
The outdoor pool, spa, indoor basketball half-court (modified as a pickleball court) with vintage parquet wood floors and large, landscaped backyard are some of the wow factors for the property. There’s also a three-car garage.
All five bathrooms feature modern tile and glass shower doors. The primary bathroom (pictured) has a … [+]
