Austin, TX 78734 (Travis County)
About this property
Some places just work. This one has been quietly running as a short-term rental for years, on just over two acres tucked into a Lake Travis cove with a dock of its own. Three separate guest accommodations, three income streams, one ownership. Unincorporated Travis County, no HOA, with room to add on, start fresh, or leave it exactly as it is and let it keep doing what it already does well. There's nothing else quite like it. Two air-conditioned meditation studios that could stay as-is, become storage, a gym, or an artist's studio. A spa pool that keeps upkeep simple. Two RV hookups. Furniture, bedding, and the operational inventory convey, so a new owner can step in and keep the business running. And a dock unlike any other on the lake — built to float with the rising and falling water level, a design shared with only one other dock on Lake Travis. Imagine mornings at the dock, evenings around the fire, marinas and dinner a few minutes up the road, and enough privacy to feel like your own corner of the lake. Documented rental history available upon request.
