Lake Travis Living
A profile published this weekend in the Austin-American Statesman really nails down the allure of life on Lake Travis.
“When you live on the water, it’s like being on vacation all the time. You have access to all the water sports. It’s our form of relaxation. We’re out on the lake three days a week during the summer,” says one property owner. As the article points out, many people drive hundreds of miles just to spend a weekend on the beautiful clear, aquamarine colored waters of Lake Travis. To live on Lake Travis in sight of the water is incomparable to any place in Central Texas.
“Boating is a big part of (this lifestyle),” says another property owner. “I love to boat, and boating on Lake Travis is great. The first thing I did was buy a boat — before I got (my) condo.”
It’s all about lake views and lake access, as they say.
Even more, a property purchased on Lake Travis is a sound long term investment. With this lake’s uniqueness to the area, there’s a constant premium on these properties (even though prices have gone down some in the past couple years). Even when the national economy struggles, the market for waterfront property in the area remains strong, according to the report.
The ideal Lake Travis home has plenty of outdoor living to sit, entertain, enjoy the vista, and perhaps take a dip in your pool. “Your blue heaven,” another Statesman article calls it.
“The view … that’s the hardest thing to give up. We get to watch the regatta, the sailboats out on the water,” says one home seller.
