Italian Villa Overlooking Lake Austin
Enjoy incomparable views of Lake Austin from nearly every room of this fabulous Italian Villa. Framed by old oaks on a two acre lot in prestigious Rob Roy, the property adjoins the water and has commanding vistas of the lake and surrounding hill country.
The entry gallery opens to elegant formal living, dining, and family rooms, perfect for small dinners or large gatherings. The ambience is a beautiful combination of casual and graceful spaces, in which architectural antiques blend perfectly with modern finishes. Walnut hardwood and stone floors, brick groin vault ceilings, Gothic windows, old Chicago brick, wood beams, and cut limestone fireplaces create rooms that are warm, yet light and open.
Grand stone terraces take full advantage of the spectacular setting, with outdoor living, dining, pool, and spa. The central stainless steel kitchen includes SubZero, Viking, and Bosch appliances. A huge granite island, double ovens, warming drawer, two dishwashers, two sinks, and huge pantry make this truly a cook’s kitchen. Designed for entertaining, the kitchen includes a bar with wine refrigerator, and shelves for glasses and wine accessories.
The Master bedroom has an adjoining study, plus a dream bath with huge walk-in shower and coffee bar. Upstairs has four bedrooms with private baths, a gameroom, and projection-media room. Downstairs is a spectacular wine cellar and tasting room.
Enjoy casually elegant living and entertaining in Austin’s most acclaimed neighborhood – Original Rob Roy.

Original Rob Roy is one of Austin’s best known and most sought-after neighborhoods. It offers the security of a fully manned gate at its entrance on Loop 360, about 2 miles north of Bee Cave Road.
Rob Roy is a quiet, impeccably maintained enclave of custom homes on acreage lots. The neighborhood has developed over time, and includes a wide variety of architectural styles. Homes are set back from the street, surrounded by mature trees and landscaping.
Austin’s best shops are nearby at the Arboretum, Domain, and Hill Country Galleria. Wild Basin Wilderness is just across Loop 360, for hiking, enjoying nature, and children’s events. Austin Country Club and Barton Creek Country Club are both within minutes of the neighborhood.
