Complete architectural plans convey with the land at no additional cost. Half an acre of Hill Country ground inside the gates of Ridge Harbor, the quiet south-shore Lake Travis community in Spicewood. Lot 64, Block A of The Point at Ridge Harbor wraps the bend of Wesley Ridge Drive with nearly 300 feet of curving frontage, screened by native mesquite, cedar, yucca, and prickly pear, with a live oak and an elm marked on the survey. A 2022 tree and topographic survey shows 0.542 +/- acres. The land sits near 775 to 780 feet along the road and falls roughly 25 feet toward the north corner, a site that invites a home designed to step with the slope rather than fight it. A 20-foot drainage easement crosses the lot; the survey maps its path along with setbacks and utility easements for planning. Flood Zone X. The plans were drawn by Geschke Group Architecture of Austin, a multi-year Best of Houzz winner. Ridge Harbor is built for lake life: gated entry, a pool with a stone pavilion, pickleball courts, a sport court and playground, a little free library, and a waterfront park beneath old live oaks with grills and picnic tables at the water's edge. Two private boat launches and a community marina with covered slips, available for purchase or lease subject to availability, keep Lake Travis close at hand. Community water, sewer, and underground electric serve the neighborhood, and there is no builder restriction. Marble Falls ISD and a Burnet County tax rate near 1.32%. Minutes to Krause Springs, Muleshoe Bend Recreation Area, and Spicewood wineries; about half an hour to Marble Falls, Horseshoe Bay, and the Hill Country Galleria in Bee Cave. Build from the plans or bring your own architect. Survey, plans, tax record, and disclosures available on request.
