About This Home
Positioned on the main body of Lake Travis in Volente, this deep-water waterfront property combines exceptional lake views, direct shoreline access, and compelling value at its price point. The property’s deep-water frontage offers the potential for a future private dock, while its elevated setting captures sweeping views across the lake and provides excellent year-round usability. Owner financing available, offering added flexibility for qualified buyers. Also available for lease - inquire with broker. The home conveys with newly purchased furnishings, making it ready for immediate enjoyment as a private lake house, weekend getaway, or short-term rental, with the flexibility to update or personalize over time. The 3-bed, 2.5-bath floor plan features an open main level with a generous kitchen and dining area, multiple living spaces, and access to two expansive decks overlooking Lake Travis. A lake-view bedroom opens to a private deck. The third bedroom can easily serve as a study, office, or additional sleeping space, allowing the entire upper level to function as a private primary suite with elevated views of the water. Located in a quiet waterfront neighborhood, the property offers a sense of privacy without sacrificing convenience. Four Points at 620 & 2222 is apx. 10 minutes away, providing easy access to shopping, dining, and everyday amenities, while downtown Austin is apx. 30 minutes away. The property is zoned to highly regarded schools Grandview Hills Elementary, Four Points Middle School, and Vandegrift High School, with nearby recreation and dining including Volente Beach Club, Beachside Billy’s, Shack 512, and Stiechen Park. With deep-water frontage, main-body Lake Travis access, panoramic views, furnishings included, and owner financing available, this property presents a rare opportunity to secure a waterfront home priced at approximately lot value with the added benefit of a residence that can be enjoyed or utilized from day one.
Lake Travis deep-water frontage in Volente puts your boat launch minutes from the main lake basin. At 8124 Joy Rd in Volente, this 1,904 sqft waterfront home sits elevated above the shoreline with a private boat ramp already installed and a sloped lot that naturally angles toward the water - meaning you're working with main-body access, not a cove or secondary channel.
Access is direct. Walk off the rear deck and you hit the water. The boat ramp cuts launch time to zero. No trailer storage drama, no waiting for community docks, no competing for weekend slot times. You load gear and go. The property already conveys furnished, so the home functions as your basecamp from day one without renovation delays eating into your season.
The layout locks in activity. Two decks bracket the main level - one primary, one extended - both oriented toward lake views and water access. The open floorplan with multiple living areas gives you space to spread across three bedrooms and three bathrooms when friends and family rotate through. A dedicated study upstairs means you can handle work remotely from the bedroom with lake views while staying in the rhythm of the water. Ceiling fans, recessed lighting, and solar tubes keep you from sweating through planning sessions indoors.
Storage matters for an active lake house. Walk-in closets on the upper level handle seasonal gear rotation. The yard itself - sloped down toward the water through mature trees exceeding 40 feet - creates natural storage zones. Large oaks and medium-height trees frame the shoreline and cut wind channeling down the slope. The 0.509 acre lot gives you breathing room that most Volente properties don't have.
Volente sits 10 minutes from Four Points shopping and dining along 2222 and 620 - meaning resupply runs don't pull you far from the lake. Vandegrift High School (GreatSchools 9/10) serves the area through Leander ISD. Stiechen Park and Volente Beach Club anchor the neighborhood, with Beachside Billy's and Shack 512 nearby for post-water meals.
At $895,000 ($470 per sqft), the property is positioned at lot value for main-body Travis waterfront. Fifty-one days on market means it's been tested. For buyers who live on the water rather than visit it, this basecamp is ready to fuel every sunrise launch and every multi-day adventure cycle through the season.
