Discover a versatile Hill Country retreat offering the ultimate flexibility for homeowners and investors alike. This unique property features a 2,080-square-foot main residence paired with a fully converted 1012-square-foot guest house, both thoughtfully updated with a new dual split AC system installed just last year. The main home greets you with an airy open-concept floor plan characterized by durable stained concrete floors and a modern kitchen featuring sleek granite countertops that flow seamlessly into the living and dining areas. The primary suite is a private sanctuary located on the main level, boasting a spacious walk-in closet and a spa-like ensuite bathroom equipped with a dual vanity, a walk-in shower, and a deep soaking tub.

Upstairs, a versatile loft and separate tech nook provide the perfect space for a home office or media room, flanked by two additional bedrooms and a full bath. The sprawling upper deck to take in mesmerizing views of Lake Travis and world-class Texas sunsets. Adding incredible value is the detached ADU, a former garage masterfully converted into a two-story living space with a private entrance, kitchenette, and its own living area. With no HOA restrictions, the current owner successfully utilizes these spaces as active short-term rentals, offering them together or separately. Complete with an extended driveway for four vehicles and located in a quiet, safe neighborhood, this is a rare lakeside opportunity to live in one and rent the other.

At $258/sqft, this home is 34% below the Austin active market average of $391/sqft, potentially representing value relative to comparable properties currently on the market. View Austin market report →
