Stillwater Cove

For more information: [hidden information]

Set behind gates on over 5.3 private acres along a quiet cove on Lake Travis, Stillwater Cove unfolds as a lakeside Hill Country haven lovingly shaped over decades into one of the most magical waterfront compounds on the lake.

Hidden beneath towering oak trees and surrounded by waterfalls, limestone walls, native wildflowers, and lush layered landscaping, the estate feels deeply rooted in the land itself. Every path, terrace, and gathering space was designed to immerse you in the beauty of the setting, creating an atmosphere that feels worlds away while still remaining connected to Austin and the lake lifestyle that defines it.

Inspired by the great mountain lodges of Colorado, the main residence blends warmth, scale, and authenticity with dramatic architectural presence. Soaring 25 foot vaulted ceilings anchored by massive juniper trusses rise above the great room, while walls of glass frame the surrounding landscape and pull natural light deep into the interiors. Rich cedar ceilings and beams, hand selected Austin limestone, custom alder cabinetry, white oak floors, and thoughtfully curated materials create a home that feels both timeless and deeply inviting.

The kitchen was remodeled by Don Thomas and pairs custom alder cabinetry with quartz and soapstone countertops, Thermador appliances, double ovens, warming drawer, propane range, and Sub Zero refrigeration. Nearby gathering spaces unfold naturally from one room to the next, creating an effortless environment for entertaining, family gatherings, and relaxed lake living.

The primary suite serves as a private retreat within the home itself, featuring vaulted ceilings, skylights, cedar lined built ins, pine floors, expansive closet space, and a sandstone clad bath complete with waterfall feature and views stretching back across the property.

Designed as a true waterfront compound, the estate includes two separate guest residences, each with their own unique story and charm. The guest house mirrors the warmth and character of the main home with cedar ceilings, alder cabinetry, rock fireplace, stamped concrete floors, full kitchen, built in bunks, and ADA accessible design. Tucked elsewhere on the property is a beautifully restored cabin originally relocated from Camp Mabry many years ago, offering studio style living, a screened porch overlooking the lake, kitchen, living space, and full bath.

Outside, the grounds are simply unforgettable. A resort style pool appears carved directly into the landscape itself, surrounded by hand selected stone, waterfalls, mature trees, expansive Trex decks woven through the canopy, and multiple outdoor living spaces designed to embrace the water and landscape from every angle. Additional amenities include a pickleball court, firepit patio, outdoor cabana with bath and shower, tree lighting, full yard irrigation system sourced from the lake, and a private boat dock with one boat slip and dual jet ski slips tucked quietly along the shoreline below.

The property is fully gated and fenced, serviced by well water and septic, and offers exceptional flexibility across multiple parcels, including the potential for future lot separation or additional improvements.

Stillwater Cove is more than a waterfront home. It is a generational estate shaped over time through landscape, architecture, and memory. A place designed for long summers on the lake, quiet mornings beneath the trees, and gathering generations of family and friends in a setting that feels increasingly rare and almost impossible to recreate today.
