About 1606 Buffalo Gap Rd

An exceptionally rare deep-water estate on the South Shore of Lake Travis, this refined waterfront residence offers a seamless blend of privacy, architectural distinction, and breathtaking panoramic views—just minutes from RR 620. Set on 1.65 acres extending into the deepest portion of a protected no-wake cove, the property enjoys tranquil dockside waters while commanding sweeping, unobstructed vistas of Lake Travis’ main body.

Completed in 2013 and enhanced with over $400,000 in recent seller upgrades, the home spans 3,898 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space tailored for elevated everyday living and sophisticated entertaining. The main living area features dramatic vaulted ceilings with exposed beams, a striking stone fireplace, and expansive walls of glass that frame the water beyond—creating an effortless indoor-outdoor connection.

The expansive open-concept kitchen—remodeled in 2023—pairs refined finishes with exceptional functionality and is complemented by an updated half bath and designer lighting throughout. Recent interior and exterior painting (2022) provides a crisp, refreshed aesthetic that enhances the home’s architectural presence and lakefront setting.

The main-level primary suite is a private retreat with captivating lake views and a spa-caliber bath featuring a dual-entry walk-in shower, soaking tub, and oversized walk-in closet. Three additional bedrooms—each positioned to capture water views—are served by three and a half additional bathrooms, offering exceptional comfort and privacy for guests and family. A dedicated study, full laundry room, and versatile gym space—updated with new flooring in 2025—further enhance the home’s livability.

Outdoor living is elevated with expansive decks on both the main and lower levels, offering 180-degree Lake Travis views, a fully equipped outdoor kitchen, and a fireplace—ideal for refined entertaining or quiet evenings overlooking the water. Balcony resurfacing completed in 2023 ensures both durability and beauty. The lower-level media and flex space opens directly to the waterfront terrace and features a full wet bar, creating an inviting environment for gatherings.

An outdoor tram added in 2025 provides effortless access to the private boathouse, which was extended in 2022 with a boat lift and upgraded electrical, placing the lake just moments from your door. Combined with the property’s ideal no-wake inlet, this setting offers calm, protected waters alongside immediate access to open-lake cruising.

The residence is further enhanced by a new geothermal HVAC system installed in 2024, delivering superior energy efficiency and year-round comfort. With water views from nearly every room and a remarkable sense of privacy, this home represents the pinnacle of Lake Travis waterfront living.

Zoned to the highly regarded Lake Travis ISD, the property offers convenient access to premier marinas, golf, dining, and outdoor recreation, while remaining within easy reach of Austin’s finest shopping, entertainment, and airport access.

A truly distinguished Lake Travis retreat—defined by enduring deep water, thoughtful upgrades, and an exceptional waterfront lifestyle.
