What

country terrain. On the market previously, the sellers have
just relisted the home at a new price sure to get attention.

price, and sparkling improvements have been made such as
repainting the exterior and adding high-end appliances.

called The Hollows, the home has only had one owner. Sorry,

lush setting and scale of the architecture makes this home
seem like a combination resort and vineyard. Click the link

Rivercrest,
3101 (Sold). Not-so-big home with boat
slip
Close-in West Austin. $899,000. The "rain forest"
house.
Your
head will spin when you discover where the house is located.
This may be the most picturesque little street in town.
There are only about forty houses on this narrow road which
runs along the shores of Lake Austin.
Built in 1995, the home was designed by a noted architect.
It includes three fireplaces, a pool and a boat slip
(located at the end of the street). Broadcasting no clue
from curbside view, what lies behind the home--the setting
that this home backs up to looks like something from you've
seen in nature magazines.
The lot goes back more than 300 feet, and the back section
dissolves into a mountainous hillside that will make you
think you're standing at the edge of a rain forest.
Amazing.
The house has three bedrooms, study and an artist's
studio.
Quail
Run Cv., 2308. Waterfront home
(sold)
On north side of Lake Travis in Lago Vista. $649,000
(Area LN)
What
makes this home interesting is the friendly price for what
you get. Located on the main body of the lake (deep water),
the house includes "hidden" living space under the main
structure. There is an elevator, oversized garage, and the
residence sits on 1.28 acres. The sale also includes a
party-sized dock with two slips, jet ski ramp and fishing
platform. There is another compelling attribute. With all of
the development on the lake, a home can often have a view of
a condo development on the opposing shoreline, but no such
concern here--there is protected parkland that sits across
from this property.

Dr.,6411 (sold)
In Great Hills off Loop 360. $399,000 (Area 1N)

hill country.
You will really appreciate this backdrop if you are tired of
looking at houses that have other houses looming over your
yard.

Enfield,
2506-E (sold)
Architect's freestanding condo in Tarrytown. $449,000.
(Area 1B)
You
will perk up just knowing this is the personal residence of
an architect because this recently-built freestanding
townhome is a head-turner. The owners have no pets or
children which means you have not seen another home that
sparkles like this one.
Also compelling here is it has none of the missing key
ingredients you typically discover. For example, this one is
placed at the back right corner of the five-unit complex. It
is quiet, has no road noise and sits under big shade trees.

is on the first floor. There is an attached double garage,

Stillmeadow,
38 (Sold)
In Lakeway's The Hills. $549,000. (Area LS)

sets this home apart from others in the area is it was built
on two lots. This allowed for a wide, free-flowing design.

love. It is a side entry garage positioned off the back left
corner of the house, and it is big enough to hold three
cars, a golf cart, and there is even more space left over
for a workshop area.

the current owners spent almost $60,000 updating the
kitchen.
