Incredible value on Lake Austin. A new dock building permit for 2 boat slips is currently in process. Property is deannexed from the City of Austin. Welcome to Huck Finn's cabin"”a 1960's true Lake Austin cabin with modest updates over the years., "Huck's Cabin" is a charming bungalow evoking the spirit of Mark Twain's Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. Nestled beside a tranquil pond, it provides a storybook escape surrounded by native flora and fauna. It can be anything your heart and soul imagine from rustic lake cabin to newly reimagined contemporary living behind a wall of lake views and charming soaring glass walls. Perhaps a new "˜modular construction' where a masterpiece is built offsite and bolted to a new foundation.
The cabin component includes 240+/- feet of shoreline & a fully permitted cabin site for a 2,212+/- square foot residence w/ 3 bedrooms & 2.5 baths, an in-ground pool at the foot of the pond, and a covered carport. There currently is one covered boat slip that will require some repairs.
The combination of a remodel or new build with two boat slips next to a deep-water canal creates an extraordinary opportunity to build a bespoke guest retreat or expand into a true homestead. Since the property has been approved for deannexation from the City of Austin, making building permits and the building process easier and more economical working through Travis County.
Imagine mornings greeted by still water and golden light, afternoons spent entertaining beneath wide Texas skies, and evenings unfolding by firelight"”all just minutes from the energy of Austin.
This is more than Huck's cabin"”it is a beginning to a dream realized, filled with a lifestyle of privacy, beauty, and intention. This property could be purchased in combination with the Estate on Rockcliff as sellers own both properties. To find out more information, please inquire.
