Lakeway Real Estate on Lake Travis

Lakeway is the anchor city of the south shore of Lake Travis, about 35 to 45 minutes west of downtown Austin off RM 620. It grew up around golf, tennis, and the water, so you find a full mix of homes here, from lakefront estates with private docks to hillside houses with big lake views and easy access to a resort marina. For a weekend or for a lifetime, Will Garrison knows every street and cove in this city.

The Real Estate

Homes in Lakeway

Lakeway offers one of the widest ranges of homes on Lake Travis. Along the shoreline you find waterfront estates with boat docks and deep-water access, while the interior neighborhoods hold custom homes, patio homes, and townhomes on the golf courses and wooded hills. Prices and styles cover a broad band, so the city works for full-time residents, downsizers, and second-home buyers alike.

Many streets here were built out decades ago and are now seeing teardowns and remodels, which means you can find both original lake cottages and brand-new construction on the same block. Will reads lot slope, dock rights, and view corridors on the ground so you know exactly what you are buying before you make an offer.
