This fast-growing sub-rural community
offers a wide variety of neighborhoods
for homebuyers, including The Homestead,
and portions of other subdivisions such as
The Uplands and Lake Pointe, just to name
a few. Bee Cave is an interesting mix of
old and new homes – you’ll find everything from trailer homes to custom-built
luxury homes in the master-planned development of Spanish Oaks that’s just on the
periphery of Bee Cave, where home prices
start in the $700s.
Students here attend school in either the
Eanes Independent School District, or the
Lake Travis Independent School District
– both of which boast an equally excellent
reputation for outstanding academic and
sports accomplishments. The opening of
the Hill Country Galleria in 2007 has only
added to the area’s appeal. This massive,
1.3-million-square-foot lifestyle center is a
multi-use complex with 650,000 square feet
of retail, 145,000 square feet of Class A office
space, 300,000 square feet of multifamily
housing, 80,000 square feet of retail pad
space, 100,000 square feet of residential
condominiums, and 50 acres of greenspace.
Back in 1963, a second home community
was planned and built on the shores of
Lake Travis in the Hill Country. A golf
course and a marina were added, as well
as a landing strip. People from Houston
and Dallas flocked to the area to buy lots
and build their dream lake home. Lots
were sold and trendy lake homes were
built. Access was via the two-lane Bee
Caves Rd or RR 2222 to RR620—both
two- lane highways themselves. But that
was just the beginning.
Today, the Lakeway area – which is
located just 30 minutes from downtown
Austin and only 10 minutes from marinas
and golf courses – is a thriving, in-demand
community that attracts those who want
Hill Country views and who want to be
close to the lake.
Gone are the days when Lakeway was
just another retirement community on the
lake. More and more families are moving
here, and the acclaimed Lake Travis Independent School District is just one of the
reasons why this community has grown so
quickly over the years.
With sophisticated but casual dining,
several nearby private and public golf
courses, and shopping of every sort,
including the Hill Country Galleria,
Lakeway is the perfect alternative for the
homeowner wanting all of the adventure that Lake Travis provides and the
convenience of all the amenities the city
provides the urban dweller.
What started as Lakeway in 1963 now
includes the gated community of The
Hills of Lakeway with its own golf course;
Flintrock Falls; and The Preserve at Lakeway,
and condos and mansions dot the hillside. While some of the best lots are the
original ones with homes on them, the
new community of Rough Hollow offers
new construction, a marina, and a club
for those homeowners who prefer new
construction. Many of the older homes
with fabulous views or waterfront access
have been renovated and remodeled to
take advantage of the views and the proximity to the water.
The new Lakeway Regional Medical
Center brings the final piece of the puzzle
to the Lakeway area – a hospital. Southwest Parkway provides easy access to
downtown as well as Austin Bergstrom
International Airport. Residents can have
it all in Lakeway – and never be more than
10 minutes from home.
The Lakeway area – which is located
just 30 minutes from downtown
Austin – is a thriving, in-demand
community that attracts those who
want Hill Country views and who
want to be close to the lake.
