Austin, TX 78732 12861 Hughes Park Rd

Sweeping, unobstructed 180-degree views of Lake Travis set the tone for one of Austin’s most distinguished private estates. Conceived for effortless entertaining and generational living, 12861 Hughes Park Rd offers architectural grandeur, serene seclusion, and resort-style amenities—just 30 minutes from downtown Austin. Tucked behind gates on over five manicured acres, the estate commands presence. A stone-paved drive winds past a cascading waterfall and ivy-draped porte cocheres, culminating in a grand motor court anchored by a stone fountain—setting the stage for an unforgettable arrival. Designed for both intimate gatherings and large-scale events, the 13,000+ sq ft layout flows seamlessly between formal and informal spaces. The soaring entry hall, framed by Doric columns and a cathedral-domed ceiling, leads to a voluminous great room with 24-foot beamed ceilings and a 7-foot stone fireplace. Panoramic lake views are visible from nearly every room, including the formal dining area with its 20-foot barrel-vaulted brick ceiling. The adjacent chef’s kitchen features a 60-inch Wolf double oven, 6-burner range, and top-tier appliances. French doors open to a covered terrace with 20-foot vaulted ceilings, a summer kitchen, Wolf grill, wood-burning fireplace, and space for hosting under the stars—overlooking a 60-foot resort-style pool. The main-level primary suite offers a fireplace, domed ceiling, attached office, and a spa-inspired bath with a jetted tub framed by lake views. Downstairs, four oversized bedrooms—each with lake views—join a second primary suite, a 2,000-bottle wine cellar, full gym, theater, and cabana bar. A detached guest apartment with a full kitchen, bath, laundry, and private entry offers ideal accommodations for guests or staff. Just across the street, a private marina provides seamless Lake Travis access and boat storage. This estate embodies timeless symmetry, flow, and beauty.
