Perfect for families/relocations 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom lake house that offers the perfect blend of modern comfort and serene natural beauty. Conveniently nestled on Austin Lake, this property boasts incredible lake views, abundant water activities, and a full private dock/beachfront for your enjoyment that are just steps away from the living room. With kayaks and a canoe at your disposal (seasonal), you'll have everything you need for unforgettable lake adventures. There's plenty of private dock space to bring your own boat. The Space: The spacious living area features a large living room and windows out to the lake views. Unwind out on the deck or inside on the couches, or gather around to watch your favorite sports and shows on the 75" flat-screen. The kitchen is fully-equipped, offering modern appliances, ample counter space, and all the essential cookware to cook or grill out. Enjoy meals out on the furnished deck with seating for everyone (5 person table + picnic table) and enjoy the serene lake views as your backdrop. \*No dishwasher. Outdoor Space: Step out onto the large deck and take in the captivating scenery over the 50 feet of sandy shoreline on Austin Lake. Take in the sun on the deck, the private dock or take out the kayaks and canoe to explore or do some large mouth bass fishing. Great place for family gatherings or extended corporate stays (just message us). We pride ourselves in helping families relocating to to the area to help foster an even better community and make that transition as enjoyable as possible.
