About This Home
**BEAUTIFUL WATERFRONT PROPERTY ON LAKE TRAVIS MAIN CHANNEL!** Nestled in the exclusive Barton Creek Lakeside community, 26216 Countryside Drive offers a rare opportunity to own waterfront property on the main channel of Lake Travis. Spanning .913 acres, this level lot is ready for your dream home, with breathtaking panoramic views of the lake and surrounding hill country. The community offers 24/7 guarded security and lake access through a private marina. Country club membership is voluntary and includes an Arnold Palmer-designed golf course, pool, clubhouse, restaurant, tennis/pickle ball courts, and fitness center. An added bonus: the neighboring .92-acre lot is also available, presenting the unique opportunity to combine both parcels for an expansive lakeside estate.
Main-channel Lake Travis frontage is the headline at 26216 Countryside Dr, a 0.913-acre waterfront homesite priced at $1.75 million in Spicewood. At 26216 Countryside Dr in Spicewood, the value is in the land itself, not an existing residence, so year built and interior bed-bath-square-foot figures do not apply.
This is unimproved land in Travis County with direct water orientation and the kind of wide-open lake setting buyers usually spend years waiting for. The lot works out to roughly 39,770 square feet, which puts pricing near $44 per square foot of land and about $1.92 million per acre. Those numbers matter because true waterfront parcels on the main body of Lake Travis are limited, and level build sites with room for a substantial custom home are harder to find than the listing count suggests. With 420 days on market, this tract has been visible long enough for buyers to study it carefully, which makes it a real option for someone who understands scarcity and is willing to plan the build the right way.
The setting connects to Barton Creek Lakeside, where owners know the appeal is not just the water. The private marina puts lake access close to home, and Barton Creek Lakeside Country Club adds another layer with its Arnold Palmer-designed golf course, clubhouse, restaurant, pool, tennis, pickleball, and fitness facilities. For day-to-day movement, TX-71 is the key corridor linking Spicewood to Bee Cave, Lakeway, and central Austin. That matters if you want a quieter waterfront address without giving up access to Austin employers, dining, or airport routes.
For schools, the property feeds to Marble Falls ISD, with Spicewood (Marble Falls ISD) for elementary, Marble Falls for middle school, and Marble Falls for high school. Buyers looking in Spicewood often focus on the balance between lake lifestyle and practical school access, and this address checks that box with a straightforward district path.
What is it like to live here? It is lake-centered, low-density, and build-to-suit. You are buying the chance to shape the house around the view instead of settling for someone else’s floor plan. On this stretch of 26216 Countryside Dr, the long-term play is simple: secure waterfront land in Spicewood now, build for the way you want to live, and hold an asset class that stays hard to replace.
