Enjoy views of Lake LBJ and spectacular Hill Country sunsets from Lot 12 in The Trails of Horseshoe Bay. Set in the coveted Ridgeline section, this east-facing estate lot spans more than an acre and offers the rare combination of tranquil water vistas out back and colorful evening skies from the front porch. For those looking to start right away, Heyl Homes has construction drawings for a custom Santa Barbara-style residence—a stunning 5,100-square-foot white stucco home with a classic red clay tile roof and a dramatic colonnade courtyard—turnkey by Heyl Homes for $4.2M. The elegant design, with its signature arches and timeless outdoor living spaces, is fully approved by the architectural control committee. Or, you are free to design and build your own vision to take advantage of the views, trees, and gentle topography that define this unique property. The price listed on MLS is for the lot only. Lot 12 provides a private, scenic setting for your dream home, with mature trees and rolling terrain enhancing both the beauty and the potential for outdoor living areas, guest casitas, or a pool. Whether you envision a secluded retreat tucked into the woods or an expansive home with sweeping windows to capture every view, this property delivers space, privacy, and inspiration. Life in The Trails means enjoying over 300 acres of wildlife preserve, miles of private hiking and riding trails, a first-class clubhouse and pool, a five-star equestrian center, playground, and a private marina with covered boat slips on constant-level Lake LBJ. This gated community offers ranch-style living by the lake—without the burdens of maintaining a large ranch—and is just minutes from Horseshoe Bay Resort, world-class golf, and a private airport. Austin is a straight, easy drive just 45 miles away. Build the home you’ve always imagined at Lot 12, The Trails of Horseshoe Bay—where every day begins with lake views out back and ends with unforgettable sunsets in the front.

Lake LBJ views on a 1.28-acre homesite are the central advantage at Lot 12 The Trails Pkwy in Horseshoe Bay. This is unimproved land in Horseshoe Bay, TX 78657, in Llano County, and it sits in Llano ISD with Llano Elementary, Llano Middle, and Llano High School serving the area. For buyers who understand Hill Country land, that combination matters: usable size, water outlook, and a defined school path in an established gated setting. The lot is positioned in the Ridgeline section and faces east, which creates a rare split orientation of Lake LBJ views to the rear and Hill Country sunset exposure from the front. That is the kind of placement that shapes architecture, outdoor living, and long-term resale more than surface-level finishes ever will.

At a listed price of $1.00M and 115 days on market, the property presents itself as a site decision rather than a finished-home comparison. The appeal is in the build potential. Mature trees, rolling terrain, and more than an acre of ground give an owner room to think beyond a basic footprint and plan for guest space, a pool, strong indoor-outdoor connections, and privacy lines that feel intentional rather than forced. There is also a real head start for a buyer who wants speed without sacrificing design control. Construction drawings already exist through Heyl Homes for a 5,100-square-foot Santa Barbara-style residence with white stucco, a red clay tile roof, and a colonnade courtyard, and that design has already cleared architectural control approval. Buyers can pursue that path or start fresh with their own plan, but the approval status materially reduces friction for anyone trying to shorten the timeline from acquisition to construction.

The broader setting adds another layer of value. The Trails includes more than 300 acres of wildlife preserve, private hiking and riding trails, a clubhouse and pool, an equestrian center, a playground, and a private marina with covered boat slips on constant-level Lake LBJ. That gives this homesite a ranch-oriented land feel with direct lake access and without the maintenance burden of a large holding. In a market where top-tier land is defined by orientation, topography, and what can actually be built, Lot 12 The Trails Pkwy stands out as a site with both immediate utility and durable long-term positioning.
