About This Home
Discover the ultimate Hill Country lakefront retreat in this custom-built Donohoo waterfront home offering 4,305 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space and unobstructed views of beautiful Lake Buchanan. Constructed in 2012 with timeless stone and stucco architecture, this property combines quality craftsmanship, luxury amenities, and an unbeatable waterfront lifestyle in a peaceful gated community. Inside, soaring vaulted ceilings with exposed wood beams create a warm and inviting atmosphere, while expansive windows frame breathtaking lake views from throughout the home. The chef's kitchen is designed for both entertaining and everyday living, featuring stunning water views and seamless flow into the spacious living and dining areas.
The private primary suite serves as a peaceful sanctuary, complete with a luxurious bathroom and direct access to the gated backyard. Three additional guest bedrooms each feature their own en-suite bathroom, providing comfort and privacy for family and visitors.
Outdoor living is truly unmatched with two spacious patios overlooking the lake, lush landscaping accented by majestic shade trees and fruit trees, and a beautifully maintained lawn irrigated directly from the lake. Enjoy endless days on the water with your private boat dock and lift, fishing pier, and private boat ramp. With 287feet of waterfrontage you have everything needed to embrace the Lake Buchanan lifestyle.
Additional features include a 2 1/2 car garage with a storage closet, new windows throughout, spray foam insulation and the added bonus of a 2015 pontoon boat conveying with the sale.
Located on renowned Lake Buchanan, residents enjoy world-class fishing, boating, wineries, state parks, scenic Hill Country drives, and endless outdoor recreation just minutes from home. This remarkable waterfront property offers a rare opportunity to own a turnkey lakefront estate where every day feels like a vacation.
The moment you turn onto Palm Cove in Buchanan Dam, Buchanan Dam transitions from a place you drive through to a place you escape to. This custom 2012 lakefront residence at 101 Palm CV delivers 4,305 square feet of stone and stucco architecture positioned directly on Lake Buchanan with 287 feet of unobstructed waterfront and a private boat dock, boat lift, and boat ramp. At $1.50M ($347 per square foot), the property offers the kind of water access most people only experience on weekends at someone else's cabin.
The interior layout prioritizes what matters at a lake house: views and flow. Vaulted cathedral ceilings and expansive windows frame Lake Buchanan from the open floorplan, where the granite-topped island kitchen feeds into living and dining areas designed more for gathering than formality. The primary bedroom anchors the main floor with direct access to the gated rear porch and backyard, while three additional en-suite bedrooms handle family and guests without compromise. ENERGY STAR appliances throughout, including the convection oven and built-in cooktop, suggest a home that was maintained, not just occupied.
Outside, the property functions as a working waterfront estate. Two covered patios overlook the lake. The lot, just over half an acre, is level and professionally landscaped with mature shade trees and fruit trees fed by lake-fed irrigation. The private boat ramp means direct water launch access without the public dock hassle. The triple-car garage stores equipment without eating into the view corridor.
Location matters here. Buchanan Dam sits in Llano County, 60 miles northwest of downtown Austin and part of Llano Independent School District, which serves the area through Packsaddle Elementary, Llano Middle, and Llano High. The lake itself is 22,000 acres and known for largemouth and smallmouth bass. Highway 29 runs nearby for supply runs. Local wineries and Hill Country state parks occupy the surrounding landscape.
This is the kind of property where the commute discussion becomes academic. You're buying a permanent base for the lake lifestyle, not a weekend accessory.
