If you are a lake lover and haven’t heard of The Woods of Lake Travis, listen up. This hidden gem of a community is tucked away on the easily accessible Hudson Bend peninsula, which makes it both an easy commute into Austin – and a central launching off spot to meet friends on the water. Properties in this neighborhood are hard to come by, for good reason.

Twice featured on HGTV, this friendly, laid-back neighborhood features custom homes on large, one-acre-plus home sites. Best of all, homeowners gain exclusive gated access (virtually unheard of on the South side of Lake Travis) to their own private 17-acre waterfront park complete with pavilion, grills, boat launch, boat slips and play scape. The kiddos attend the acclaimed Lake Travis schools, without city taxes. No builder knows this development better than award-winning JKD Builder, who has built four unique custom homes in the Woods – including one featured home on HGTV’s House Hunters.

17038 Trail of the Woods is a Hill Country Modern design, by award-winning architect Elliot Johnson, featuring interior finishes normally found in $1 million-plus homes. The floor plan is perfectly situated for privacy, and maximizes the surrounding natural beauty of this tree-covered property. Priced at $675,00, this home is a bargain. Move in today – and start enjoying the lake lifestyle! Check out the virtual tour.
