About this home
The Best Value Near Lake Austin – Shovel-Ready & Boat-Friendly!
Own the lowest-priced lot to hit the market in the last 12 months! This isn’t just a piece of land; it’s a shortcut to the Lake Austin lifestyle. While other buyers are stuck in the permitting phase, you can break ground immediately on this oversized 0.44-acre corner lot.
Skip the red tape and the two-year wait. This property comes with fully approved plans for a sophisticated 1,700 sq. ft. single-level home. Best of all, the design includes a massive 900 sq. ft. garage specifically engineered to house your boat—saving you thousands in storage fees and keeping your gear right where it belongs.
Lake Access: You are just 0.5 miles (a 2-minute drive) from the boat ramps and docks at Mary Quinlan Park. Spend your afternoons on the water, not in traffic.
As an outside corner lot, you enjoy enhanced curb appeal and more space than the standard neighborhood parcel. A seasonal wet-weather creek winds through the property, surrounded by mature trees for a true Hill Country feel.
The septic system is already designed and rated to support a home up to 2,500 sq. ft., providing incredible future flexibility and instant equity.
This is the most affordable entry point into the area in over a year. Whether you are a builder looking for a quick turnaround or a lake lover ready to build a dream retreat, this "shovel-ready" gem will not last.
Bring your builder, bring your boat, and move to the front of the line! Listing agent is also a builder and can provide insight to building process....
