Custom homes · Lake Austin

Building custom homes in Lake Austin.

Waterfront homes on Lake Austin combine every hard part of building in one place: steep lots, shoreline regulation, docks, access that makes deliveries a puzzle, and constant humidity off the water.

What we plan for here

  • Shoreline and dock permits

    Lake Austin is regulated by the City of Austin, with shoreline setbacks and separate permitting for boat docks and shoreline work. We plan these alongside the house, not after it.

  • Moisture management

    Lakefront air carries a lot of water. Tight envelopes, dedicated dehumidification and materials that tolerate wet conditions matter more here than anywhere else we build.

  • Access and staging

    Many lots have one narrow way in. We sequence the work so cranes, concrete and deliveries happen in the right order without tearing up what's already built.

Every home here gets the same envelope and systems we use everywhere. See how we build.

Can you build a boat dock with the house?

Yes. We coordinate dock design and permitting with specialized marine contractors so it is scheduled with the rest of the project.
