_ Capella Cv, Spicewood, TX 78669

In the rolling hills of Spicewood, on a legendary tract of land just outside Austin, a new standard for private living is being established: Loraloma.

This is an enclave architected for legacy—a private community where curated experiences and thoughtful design converge with the soul of the Texas Hill Country.

Now open, the centerpiece of Loraloma makes its global debut: a private championship golf course by David McLay Kidd, the world's most sought-after golf architect. As its inaugural season commences, founding members will be the first to play this 18-hole links-style masterpiece, a privilege reserved exclusively for residents. Beyond the course, the estate offers a lifestyle of serene adventure, from a natural swimming grotto and a private river club on the Pedernales to a 40-mile network of equestrian trails.

The Bonnell Residences at Loraloma are expertly built spec homes by the development team. Designed inside and out by Denton House, this enclave of three-bedroom homes were purposefully placed into the hillside overlooking Limestone Gulch, where you will find Loraloma’s “best of Texas” amenities including a natural swimming hole, fishing pond, and Fieldhouse which will offer fitness, spa, dance hall, taproom, and more. With Limestone Gulch on one side and a private park on the other, the Bonnell Residences are the epitome of privacy and convenience.

Bonnell Residence 4 is a perfectly designed walkout plan with a primary suite with private porch on the main level and two bedrooms + den on the lower level. A formal foyer opens to gracious 36’-long Great Room with double doors opening to a covered terrace. The lower level features two bedrooms with en-suite baths, den, powder room, and a covered patio.

Foundation work is already underway for the Bonnell Residences. Purchasing one today allows you to pick from three carefully curated interior finish options.

At $3.07 million, or $1,069 per square foot, _ Capella Cv stands out as a newly built 2026 single family residence inside Loraloma in Spicewood, TX 78669. _ Capella Cv pairs a low maintenance 2,875 square foot layout with a larger than expected 0.4197 acre homesite in Burnet County, which is a strong combination for buyers who want new construction, privacy, and room to breathe.

This three bedroom home includes three full baths and two half baths, giving it a floor plan that fits full time living as well as lock and leave use. The setting is a major part of the appeal. Loraloma is built around the Texas Hill Country landscape, with Limestone Gulch, a private park, and access to the Pedernales River shaping the daily experience. Residents are positioned close to the community’s David McLay Kidd championship golf course, a defining amenity that gives this address more long term identity than a standard new construction offering.

The lot size matters here. At 0.4197 acres, this property offers more separation and outdoor potential than many homes in planned luxury communities. That space supports the walkout design and covered outdoor living areas described for the Bonnell Residences, with hillside placement that takes advantage of the terrain rather than fighting it. Buyers looking at new homes in Spicewood often compare square footage first, but here the land, the topography, and the amenity package carry just as much weight as the interior.

Geographic context also adds value. This part of Spicewood gives owners a Hill Country address with access to the lifestyle drivers that matter most in this market: the Pedernales River, golf, trail systems, and resort style wellness amenities at the Fieldhouse, including fitness, spa, and social spaces. School information is not listed for this property, so buyers should verify district and campus assignments directly. Days on market sit at 107, which suggests buyers have had time to study the product, pricing, and community before making a move.

For anyone asking what it is like to live at _ Capella Cv, the answer is simple: it is a new Spicewood single family residence built around land, privacy, and a club driven Hill Country lifestyle that should hold attention as Loraloma matures and values become more established.

Loraloma is being built on 1,300 acres atop the Balcones Escarpment above Lake Travis, making it the largest new private community in the Hill Country west of Austin. The escarpment drops several hundred feet to the lake surface, which means the elevation produces views that most Austin-area neighborhoods cannot physically replicate. Every home sits above 1,000 feet, and the western lots look out across miles of open Hill Country.

The community is in Spicewood, zip code 78669, roughly 30 minutes northwest of downtown via Highway 71. Bee Cave and the Galleria district are about 15 minutes southeast, and Marble Falls is 20 minutes northwest. Lake Travis marina access at Pace Bend is approximately 12 minutes. Spicewood has historically been ranch country, and Loraloma sits where Austin's western growth meets the open land that longtime residents have known for decades. Austin-Bergstrom airport is about 45 minutes via Highway 71.

Every home is new construction from 2024 forward. Hill Country Modern architecture leads at roughly 35 percent, featuring clean lines, expansive glass, native stone, and low-slope rooflines that frame views rather than compete with them. Texas Ranch Contemporary accounts for about 25 percent, blending traditional ranch proportions with modern interiors. Lot sizes run one to three acres for most homesites, with estate lots exceeding five acres. Pricing starts in the low $2 millions for smaller lots with builder packages and climbs past $5 million for panoramic escarpment positions.

Lake Travis ISD serves Spicewood, and families will attend schools in that district. Lake Travis High carries strong academic and athletic reputation. The drive from the community is approximately 20 minutes. Private options in the Bee Cave and Lakeway corridor are within commuting distance. This is not a five-minute school drop-off. Families who prioritize walkable school proximity should factor that in.

The lifestyle is built around land, views, and outdoor access. An equestrian center and amphitheater are part of the amenity plan, along with miles of internal trails. Pedernales Falls State Park is 25 minutes away with excellent hiking and swimming. Pace Bend Park on Lake Travis provides cliff jumping and boat access. Krause Springs, a spring-fed swimming hole, is about 20 minutes away. Hamilton Pool Preserve is a 15-minute drive. For dining, Apis Restaurant in Spicewood delivers fine dining with local ingredients. Opie's BBQ serves brisket that locals swear by. Poodie's Hilltop has live music and cold beer. Flat Creek Estate Winery offers tastings and vineyard dinners, and Blue Bonnet Cafe in Marble Falls has served pie since 1929.

Loraloma occupies a category that did not previously exist here. It is not a golf community like the Hills or Spanish Oaks, nor a marina community like Rough Hollow. The closest comparison is Horseshoe Bay, but Loraloma is 30 minutes closer to downtown. Compared to Bee Cave subdivisions like Falconhead or Sweetwater, the acreage is dramatically larger and the density dramatically lower. The development plan preserves over 60 percent as open space.

Loraloma makes sense for buyers who have moved past the question of downtown proximity and are optimizing for land, privacy, and natural beauty. Families with flexible work arrangements will find the location comfortable. The community is in its earliest phase, so you are buying into a vision as much as a finished product. But the land is the asset that cannot be replicated. The escarpment is not getting any bigger.
