The Sunset Shore Estate is offered for the first time.
Set along the prestigious south shore of Lake Travis, Sunset Shore represents one of the most extraordinary privately held waterfront estates ever brought to market in the Austin area. Positioned within the coveted shoreline of Armstrong Bend, this legacy property captures a rare combination of deep-water frontage, sweeping vistas, mature landscape, and remarkably usable lakefront terrain.
Long regarded as one of the most desirable stretches of the lake, Armstrong Bend first drew attention during the creation of Mansfield Dam and the birth of Lake Travis itself. Early settlers were captivated by the area’s rolling topography, fertile land, towering trees, and expansive open-water views. Today, that same shoreline remains among the closest luxury waterfront settings to downtown Austin — a rare balance of privacy, accessibility, and natural beauty.
Surrounded by established acreage estates and moments from the conveniences of modern Austin living, Sunset Shore feels worlds away while remaining connected to everything. Retail, dining, entertainment, golf, and marinas are all within close reach, yet the estate itself exists in complete seclusion behind grand gated entry.
Designed and constructed by a respected pioneer in luxury homebuilding and development, the primary residence was thoughtfully crafted to embrace the surrounding landscape and lake views at every turn. Walls of butted glass, expansive entertaining spaces, and timeless architectural design create a seamless connection between indoors and out. The home lives with an understated sophistication — refined, comfortable, and intentionally scaled for both intimate living and large gatherings.
The estate’s entertainment barn stands as one of the property’s most extraordinary features. Built on a commercial scale, the structure offers flexibility rarely found in a private residence. Designed to accommodate large collections, events, and recreational pursuits, the space easily houses boats, buses, automobiles, and specialty equipment while incorporating a full commercial catering kitchen and private guest apartment above. Whether envisioned as a luxury entertaining venue, collector’s showcase, creative retreat, or future event destination, the possibilities are substantial.
Across the grounds, the estate unfolds like a private resort.
Cobblestone pathways wind through lush landscaped gardens beneath towering heritage live oaks. Azalea gardens, lakeside gathering spaces, sand volleyball court, horseshoe and washer pits, and shaded lounging areas create an atmosphere designed for recreation and connection. A cobblestone drive leads to the lakeside pavilion, while a private tram descends effortlessly to the boat dock below — offering seamless access to days spent on the water.
And then there are the sunsets.
Evenings at Sunset Shore become an experience unto themselves, as the western sky reflects across the open water in dramatic color and light. It is a property designed not simply to be lived in, but experienced.
A rare offering where home feels more like a private retreat.
** Income Potential For those who have desired to have their own resort/event venue. The property is not restricted to business, vacation rentals, or events. Plenty of room to expand the possibilities of your venture may become reality.
