Le Rivage Du Lac Austin | Vues Sur La Ville, Front De Mer, Plans De Luxe

Some homes are designed to sit near the water. The Shoreline is designed to belong to it. Tucked behind a fully private street presence in the heart of Westlake, this planned estate is envisioned as an unfolding sequence of light, glass, and stone, culminating at the water’s edge. Designed by MF Architecture, the future residence presents one of Austin’s most compelling waterfront opportunities: completely hidden from the outside world, completely open to everything beyond it.

The architectural vision balances scale and artistry throughout. At the center of the proposed home, a sculptural three-story staircase is planned to rise like a spine through the residence, with natural limestone, wood, and steel coming together as a striking architectural statement. Floor-to-ceiling glass is designed to stretch across every level, framing the Austin skyline and the broad sweep of the lake from nearly every room. A catering kitchen with butler’s pantry, wine storage and tasting room, and a conditioned basement planned for a private theater and gym create a residence intended for a life lived fully and on your own terms.

The planned owner’s suite is positioned to command the lake with a wraparound balcony, an open-air outdoor shower, and views stretching from the city skyline to the water below. A second-floor library, private office, and meditation deck are envisioned as quiet sanctuaries above it all. With five bedrooms, six full baths, two half baths, and a fully detached 1,200-square-foot guest suite in the plans, The Shoreline is designed to give every guest their own sense of retreat without ever losing sight of the view.

Outside, the vision continues. The renderings show an infinity-edge pool designed to dissolve into the lake horizon, with covered patios and open decks extending the living spaces outdoors. An outdoor living room anchored by a fire pit is planned for evenings that stretch long after dark. And at the water itself, the foundation is already in place. The completed double-decker boat dock — built to the same standard of excellence envisioned for the residence above — is finished and ready, equipped with dedicated AT&T fiber and separately metered water and electricity through Austin Energy. While the estate above awaits its moment to be brought to life, the dock is ready from day one — a rare head start on lakefront living that few properties on Lake Austin can offer.
