12600 Lyndon Drive, Austin, TX 78732

Imagine waking up to a wall of glass overlooking Lake Travis, sunlight spilling across hand-laid stone floors, and the quiet stillness of 1.31 private acres. Welcome to 12600 Lyndon Dr — a true European Villa–inspired estate where every detail is designed to make this home a precious retreat. Past the gated entrance, this 6,706 sq. ft. masterpiece reveals itself slowly; tucked into the hillside for privacy yet positioned to capture some of the very best views of Lake Travis. Step inside and you are greeted by a dramatic rotunda with hand-painted ceilings and intricate mosaic tile — a breathtaking first impression that sets the tone for the rest of the home. Vaulted ceilings with heavy beams, custom stonework, and warm stucco walls make the interiors feel both grand yet warm and welcoming. This is a home built for living beautifully at any phase of life. Two separate living rooms feature floor-to-ceiling windows that frame panoramic views of the lake and hills. One living space offers a cozy experience framed by a warm fireplace, while the other opens seamlessly to the updated chef’s kitchen with top-tier appliances - a place to gather while dinner simmers. The formal dining room is perfect for memorable gatherings under the glow of candlelight, and the dedicated office, complete with wet bar and gas fireplace, is ideal for working or unwinding with a nightcap.
The primary suite is a private sanctuary. Awaken surrounded by glass with endless lake views, enjoy a quiet fire in the sitting area, and retreat to a spa-like bath with soaking tub, dual vanities, walk-in shower and dual toilets and closets. A private loft above the suite is perfect for a yoga space, reading nook, or morning meditation room. Upstairs, every bedroom has its own ensuite bath, and one suite includes its own kitchen and dedicated entrance — ideal for long-term guests, an au pair, or multi-generational living. Another bedroom boasts its own private balcony for sunset watching over the lake.
Outdoor living also makes this home unforgettable. Terraced decks run the length of the house with space for lounging, dining, and hosting. A built-in bar invites sunset cocktails as the upper waterfall spills down into the resort-style saltwater pool below. The pool is complete with a grotto, swim-up bar, waterfall, and stone patio — the kind of outdoor space that feels like a boutique resort. A full outdoor kitchen and cabana with bath and shower make entertaining effortless. Additional details include a 3-car garage, solar-tinted windows, electric sunshades, hurricane shutters, and a 100-year tile roof. Thoughtful updates include a new retention wall, improved drainage, and fencing. Located in the ETJ with no city permitting required, there is room to make this property your own — add a wine cellar, convert the cabana to a guest house, or even install an elevator from the garage. 12600 Lyndon Dr isn’t just a house — it’s a retreat, a statement, and an invitation to slow down and savor once-in-a lifetime views.
