3214 Smoky Ridge, Austin, TX 78730

Welcome to Serenity Shores, a rare opportunity on Lake Austin where organic modern design, lakefront living, and limitless potential converge. Set on 1.91 acres... in the heart of Austin, this private retreat offers coveted access to Lake Austin with a dedicated easement to a shared dock, a private gazebo perched at the water’s edge, and a boat slip for effortless days on the lake. The property is anchored by a newly built 2,400-square-foot guest house with a pool — a turnkey retreat on its own, yet just the beginning of what Serenity Shores offers. Permitted plans are already in place for a 4,000-square-foot main residence atop the ridge, complete with a tennis court, pool, and three-car garage. The existing septic system is approved for a five-bedroom home, allowing you to create a true multi-generational estate or a full-time lake house designed to your vision. The current residence embraces an organic modern aesthetic — clean lines, warm wood, and marble details — with an “upside-down” design that maximizes the views. Upstairs, the main living area opens seamlessly to a vast terrace with a built-in barbecue and bistro-style bar, perfect for entertaining. Downstairs, a secondary living space and three bedrooms flow to the pool and expansive backyard overlooking the canyon beyond, surrounded by native landscaping and total privacy. Beyond its architectural beauty, Serenity Shores is also an investment in lifestyle. With Highland Park Elementary, Lamar Middle, and McCallum High School in the sought-after Austin ISD, and just minutes from the city, this property offers both convenience and escape. From its private lake amenities to its rare development potential, Serenity Shores is more than a home — it’s a canvas for your vision on Lake Austin. Read More
