Waterfront homes are not as easy to buy as you might imagine. Some have steep declines to the lake. Others have disappointing views, and many are just too expensive. 2308 Quail Run Cove has everything on your wish list.
Easy Slope And Golf Cart
Path Leads To Dock
One of the most pleasing attributes is the gentle slope from
the house to the water and dock. Live here, and you get up
at sunrise, fill your thermos with fresh coffee and quietly
stroll down to the dock (dock photo p.3) where you ease the
boat out for a day of fishing or exploring the sixty miles
of waterways. 
The house includes an elevator--ideal for heavy loads and helpful if you have aging parents. Here is how this works. You can simply put your mom on the elevator and take her down to the garage level (noticeably oversized) where you put her in the golf cart. Open a side garage door where you drive out. Then, drive down the concrete path all the way to the dock! Even if you are in excellent shape, this is a great way to ferry ice chests down to the boat.
The tree-covered lot is about 1.28 acres in size, and there is even a private picnic area down at water's edge--a picturesque spot for a family reunion or weekend cookout with friends. The dock is also something to brag about. It is large enough to host a party in its own right. It is covered, has two slips, a jet ski ramp plus more deck area you can use as a fishing platform.
The main floor--on the top level for the best views--contains the primary house. The design has 3 bedrooms, 3.5 baths and about 2,916 square feet (per TCAD). Tucked away in the front right corner is a genuine home office behind a set of French doors.
Even though the home was built in 1994, you may want to update color schemes, but, you could not do a better job today creating a lakefront design. Ceilings are tall for added dimension and natural light and floor-to-ceiling windows deliver a thrilling view of the lake and hill country setting. The home is not only on the main body of the lake (deep water), but you will notice something fascinating if you study the photo at the top of the first page. Look at the opposing shoreline--totally pristine as there are no condo developments or other houses. It is because this house sits across from protected land--a park and campgrounds managed by LCRA.
The House Beneath The
House
There is one final surprise. Houses built on slopes normally
have dead space under the main structure, but here, this
space has been room-finished, and you won't believe what is
down there--about 2,000 additional square feet, and all of
it is served with air-conditioning and heat. One section
includes a massive game room and sleeping area, and the
current owners have comfortably bunked nine grand kids in
the summertime. There is a bathroom, plus another separate
hobby room. All of these areas feed out to a large deck
area. There is another section about the size of a double
garage made just for storage--it's like having your own
mini-storage building right on premises. One corner of this
space already includes a do-it-yourselfer's workbench that
is big enough to hold every tool in the Sears catalogue. If
you pull up the tax office records the size is listed as
2,916 square feet, but if you add in all of the lower
level space, the owner says the residence actually has about
5,140 square feet of air-conditioned space.
The home includes two air conditioning systems, two water
heaters, fourteen ceiling fans and a central vacuum system.
The roof is only a couple of years old, and the yard areas
are easy to maintain in the summer due to the sprinkler
system.
For the tempting price of $649,000, you get an impressive home sitting on 1.28 acres of prized Lake Travis waterfront. The view is protected, and the house includes extras like a hot tub, dock, elevator, bonus rooms downstairs and oversized garage.
