Flushed Out Post Rain

Posted by on 6-06-16 in Lake LBJ Real Estate | Comments Off on Flushed Out Post Rain

As I was out checking on my listings after the big rain I snapped a few photos of some of the debris and trash that gets flushed through the lake after a big rain.  You can see from the photo that this mass of debris sticks together and moves down stream towards the dam where it will eventually be cleaned up out of the lake.  In my opinion this is actually good for Lake LBJ as it really is natures way of flushing out the water.  That being said, its important to be very careful over the coming weeks when taking the boat out because there are still large sticks and branches floating around that will ruin your prop.  Its also important to be aware that bacteria levels in the water can be higher during times like these because of all the water coming from upstream.  Use caution when swimming or skiing and make sure to read up on local lake closures and updates which can be found on the LCRA’s website.  For more information on Lake LBJ Real Estate contact me at (512) 786-1515

The Perfect Sunset

Posted by on 5-05-16 in Granite Shoals, Lake LBJ Real Estate | Comments Off on The Perfect Sunset

Finding the perfect sunset on Lake LBJ is not easy.  In fact, most properties that have western exposure are not desirable because the afternoon sun is way too hot.  808 Misty Downs in an anomaly due the perfect positioned, towering cypress trees that are estimated to be approx 85 years old.

IMG_5877

These two trees provide perfect shade for this lakeside property and house while perfectly framing the amazing views of Pack Saddle mountain.  In my opinion, this is the #1 place to watch a sunset on Lake LBJ and a priceless piece of Lake LBJ Real Estate.  You be the judge.

2 Waterfront Lots for the Price of 1 (Lake Marble Falls)

Posted by on 4-04-16 in Marble Falls | Comments Off on 2 Waterfront Lots for the Price of 1 (Lake Marble Falls)

IMG_4799

IMG_4802

This is hands down the best waterfront deal in the Highland Lakes! 2 waterfront lots, each with 46.5 waterfront ft, side by side being sold together as a package deal for $300,000.  This lots are located on the main body of Lake Marble Falls on the way to Horseshoe Bay about 1/4 mile away from Starbucks.  Waterside is a small development with 14 total lots.  Of the 14, 3 have been built on.  The neighborhood restrictions require a minimum of 2000 sq ft and because of the flood plain the houses will need to be built up out with the first floor being open air.

I have met with a builder that has given me an estimation of $175-$200/ft to build on these lots based on neighborhood requirements and there may be some wiggle room if both are built at the same.  If I was doing this project, I would build 2000-2500 sq ft on each lot with a small pool and boat house and I would target a sales price of 800-900k depending on finishes.

THESE LOTS WILL NOT LAST LONG! Come take a look and you will see what an opportunity this really is!  Contact me today at (512) 786-1515 for more information.

A True Lake LBJ Getaway

Posted by on 3-03-16 in Granite Shoals, Lake LBJ Real Estate | Comments Off on A True Lake LBJ Getaway

A true lake getaway makes you feel as if you are far far away from your home!  It is a cozy place tucked along the beautiful water of Lake LBJ under the clear blue sky.  It’s a place where memories are made, where the family gathers and the peaceful sound of birds and wildlife fill the air like music.  A true lake getaway does not have to be huge but has to be comfortable.  It has to be breezy in the summer and warm in the winter as it is a place that should be utilized year round.  It sleeps many but is made up primarily of living space that can be shared by friends and family.  It has a nice kitchen, one that any chef will appreciate but also has places for others to sit around for some conversation over a hot cup of coffee.

A true lake getaway is 808/810 Misty Downs.  If you are interested in the most unique waterfront property on Lake LBJ contact me today at (512) 786-1515.
