Welcome to Serenity Shores — one of the most flexible and compelling opportunities currently available on Lake Austin.
Set across 1.91 private acres with dedicated lake access, this property offers what is increasingly difficult to find: usable waterfront amenities, existing livable improvements, and fully approved plans to expand into a landmark estate.
A modern 4-bedroom, 2,400-square-foot residence with pool is already in place, allowing immediate enjoyment of the property. A private gazebo at the water’s edge, shared dock easement, and boat slip create effortless access to Lake Austin — the lifestyle buyers come here for.
What sets Serenity Shores apart is its future potential. Permitted plans are approved for a 4,000-square-foot main residence atop the ridge, complete with a tennis court, pool, and three-car garage. The septic system is already sized for a five-bedroom estate, enabling a true compound without the uncertainty of entitlement risk.
The existing home reflects a warm organic-modern aesthetic, designed to maximize views and indoor-outdoor living. The upper level opens to an expansive entertaining terrace with built-in grilling and bar seating, while the lower level connects directly to the pool and landscaped grounds, surrounded by privacy and canyon vistas.
Minutes from central Austin and zoned to Highland Park Elementary, Lamar Middle, and McCallum High School, the property balances seclusion with convenience — a rare combination in the Lake Austin corridor.
Serenity Shores is not simply a home. It is a strategic Lake Austin acquisition: livable today, expandable tomorrow, and positioned to become a multi-generational estate.

Neighborhood guide and local insights
Lake Austin is Austin's most exclusive waterfront corridor - 22 miles of constant-level shoreline in 78732, 15 minutes from downtown. Waterfront homes start around $4M and trophy lots with 200+ feet of flat shoreline trade at $15M-$35M+. The lake is controlled by Tom Miller Dam, which maintains consistent water levels year-round - the key advantage over seasonal Lake Travis. This is one of Austin's thinnest markets. Roughly 22 miles of total shoreline, and at any given time only 3-5 homes are actively listed. Many of the best lots trade privately through agent relationships before they ever reach the MLS. The finite supply creates a structural price floor that insulates Lake Austin from broader market cycles. Buyers here want water access as daily life, not a weekend plan. Morning paddleboard, afternoon ski run, burgers at Ski Shores by boat, sunset from your own dock watching Hill Country ridgelines. The practical side matters too: you are inside Austin city limits with full services, 15 minutes from downtown, 10 from the Domain. Four Seasons Private Residences is under development on 145 acres with 188 planned homes - the first significant new inventory since the lake was established. Eanes ISD and Leander ISD serve different sections of the corridor, both with strong school ratings.
