Outdoor space abounds at this beautiful Hill Country haven. Affectionately named Chez Elmo, this property is set on 6.25 acres. Enjoy nearby park access to fun-filled days on Lake Travis. (There is currently no water in the cove due to drought.) A covered patio is perfect for family cookouts, and the balcony offers a quiet spot to relax and take in the expansive vistas. Inside, a spacious floor plan features large windows with spectacular views, a brand-new kitchen, and a game room with a pool table. You’ll be just a short drive from this great location to grocery shopping and dining in Lago Vista.

Wall-to-wall windows showcase sweeping Hill Country views in the main living area. Two armchairs and a sectional provide ample seating in front of the large smart TV with a DVD player. A game room offers additional social space with a pool table, TV with a DVD player, full-sized fridge, and sink. Prepare tasty meals in the beautifully remodeled kitchen, outfitted with stainless steel appliances and granite countertops. Find ample dining space between the kitchen bar, breakfast nook, and dining table.

This home sleeps 10 guests between two bedrooms and the game room. Sleep soundly in the primary bedroom, which offers a king bed, a twin daybed with a twin trundle, and a TV. The second bedroom holds two extra-long twin beds and a Roku TV. Providing additional sleeping options, the game room offers two twin-over-twin bunk beds and a twin-over-full bunk bed. Two guest bathrooms each have a tub/shower combination.

Cook out on the covered patio, which features a gas grill, alfresco dining, and a cornhole game. Or, relax on the furnished covered balcony. Follow the stairs down the hill to the private dock, which fits a standard-sized boat. Added perks include two kayaks, tubes and floaties, ski belts, and life jackets.

For swimming, fishing, hiking, and picnicking head a little over a mile to Arkansas Bend Park.
