Marble Falls, TX 78654 (Burnet County)
About this property
Six acres. Over 850 feet of Lake Travis shoreline. Gated privacy. Views that won’t disappear. This is the kind of waterfront property buyers wait for—and rarely find. Located inside the gated community of Chimney Cove Estates, this 6-acre tract delivers massive shoreline, long-range views, and the flexibility to build something truly special. When lake levels are full, deep water reaches up to 20 feet along the shoreline, creating the kind of reliable access that defines premium Lake Travis living. Even at lower elevations, the water still reaches the property line, keeping the connection to the lake intact. The groundwork is already in motion. A 700+ foot driveway has been cleared, a culvert is installed, and large portions of the property sit safely outside FEMA and LCRA floodplains—giving you room to build with confidence. Custom home plans designed specifically for this property are available, allowing you to move forward faster and skip the early design phase. What truly sets this property apart is the permanence of the setting. The land across the water sits within protected floodplain, preserving your panoramic views and preventing future development from crowding the shoreline. Instead, your daily backdrop includes open water, rolling hills, and even the occasional sight of roaming longhorns grazing nearby—qualifying the property for an agricultural exemption. Ownership here also includes access to the private community lake park with boat ramp and dock, making launching and exploring the lake simple and convenient. And while the property feels private and tucked away, you’re still within easy reach of adventure and everyday essentials—just minutes to Hidden Falls Adventure Park, Marble Falls, and Lago Vista. This isn’t just lake property. It’s scale, privacy, and long-term value—positioned on one of the most impressive stretches of Lake Travis shoreline.
