Known as the “Mushroom Home,” this distinctive 1974 property is on the market for the first time.

Walls of windows take advantage of the Lake Travis views, while a gated entrance and long driveway give the property a sense of privacy. Outside, a bocce court and several entertaining areas overlook the water, and a private tram leads down to a dock with a boat slip, two Jet Ski lifts and lakeside storage.

15201 Fm 2769 | $12,000,000
5 bedrooms, 8 baths | 11,150 sq. ft.
While it may not be unusual to see a Tuscan-style mansion on Lake Travis, it is uncommon to find one with a vineyard in the front yard. The Volente home sits on more than 22 acres and includes five bedrooms, a wine cellar, gym, media room and a kitchen with a barrel-vaulted brick ceiling. Outside, active grapevines share the grounds with a pond, waterfall, basketball court and infinity pool overlooking the lake. Covered patios, a screened porch with a fireplace and a private boat dock make the property especially suited for entertaining, while a separate garage and workshop provide room for several additional vehicles and potential guest quarters.
