About this home

“Apache Shores” is an eclectic, amenity-rich neighborhood offering private Lake Austin access, parks, trails, a pool, an 18-hole disc golf course and even a taco truck and local coffee bus, all just a short walk or golf cart ride away.

Tucked away on a quiet, non-through street, Brass Buttons sits on a private double lot spanning over 1/3 of an acre. Surrounded by mature trees and friendly neighbors, the property feels like a piece of art immersed in nature, peaceful and secluded, yet conveniently located. This home has been lovingly enjoyed as a gathering place for family holidays and also presents an excellent opportunity as a potential Airbnb.
Inside, the home is filled with character and natural light. The open, bright kitchen is a standout, anchored by a stunning La Cornue stove and vent hood (a $15K value), where a previous owner once baked cupcakes for the neighborhood. The primary bedroom offers a comfortable and inviting space to unwind while maintaining the home’s unique charm. A separate ADU/flex space connects to the main house via a covered walkway, already equipped with electricity and plumbing for water, ideal for a music studio, office or guest retreat.
The backyard is a true retreat, shaded by large mature oaks, pomegranate trees and Japanese maples. A covered pergola comfortably seats 12+, along with a covered carport for boat storage and a storage room.

Located just across the street from the cliffs overlooking the Colorado River (Lake Austin), the home also enjoys proximity to Lake Travis, Lakeway, Bee Cave and Four Points, with convenient access to downtown Austin. With its expansive private lot, lake access and distinctive character, this property stands apart from today’s more conventional homes.
