Description
Welcome to the most iconic compound on Lake Austin -- simply known as The One. Designed by architect Javier Gonzalez and interior designer Claudia Goudet and completed in 2019, this completely private, gated estate sits on 1.74 acres with 12,141 square feet of conditioned living space and an additional 2,559 square feet of attached open areas. Pass through the entry gates where a water feature pond, a spectacular Perselidas Angel by renowned Mexican sculptor Jorge Marin, and a long private drive set the tone. At the heart of the home, an interior fountain plaza anchored by Jorge LLaca's Surrealistic Ferrari sculpture floods every space with natural light -- an arrival sequence unlike anything else on the market.
Inside, sectional sliding glass doors dissolve the line between the living, dining, and entertaining areas and the pool beyond. The kitchen features Italian Berloni high-gloss cabinetry with top-of-the-line Sub-Zero, Viking, Miele, and Wolf appliances, a large island, and a walk-in pantry. Hand-crafted wall and ceiling wood treatments, large-format Italian ceramic tile, and one-of-a-kind custom-imported cabinetry define every room. A large office, dedicated media room, and game room -- convertible to a full guest suite with Murphy beds, bathroom, and closet -- round out the main level. Every room carries its own high-end audio system, motorized shades, and custom closets with double-height motorized hangers, all governed by a unified intelligent lighting and control platform.
The bedroom layout was designed around privacy. The primary suite occupies its own wing with unobstructed lake views, pool access, and a spa-like bathroom. Three guest bedrooms each have ensuite baths and oversized closets. Above, a fully independent mother-in-law casita offers two bedrooms, a kitchenette, and living space -- accessible privately or from within the home. Two garages accommodate up to ten cars indoors combined, alongside a private gym.
The grounds are where The One truly announces itself. A modern pool with beach Jacuzzi, party and beach sections, and an infinity edge anchors the outdoor entertaining space, surrounded by a chef's outdoor grill, pool bathrooms, and covered patio. The one-acre lakefront backyard -- equipped with a high-end Sonance music system and currently displaying La Conversacion by French artist Etienne -- offers room for a future sports court alongside an existing grass volleyball court. Landscaping and lawns carry no water restrictions, as lake water is pumped for irrigation and naturally returned to the subsoil. The full property is secured by a 20-camera surveillance system.
No compound would be complete without a world-class water presence, and The One delivers. A private canal runs directly from Lake Austin to a covered boathouse equipped with two hydraulic boat lifts and one wave runner lift, with generous storage throughout. A private lakeside deck offers a front-row seat to the main body of Lake Austin -- and from the boathouse, open water awaits. Properties of this magnitude, in this location, with this level of privacy and finish surface once in a generation.
