Property Description

The Sand Dollar House, a cherished landmark in Lakeway, was built in 1979 by John Covert Watson, a prot�g� of Frank Lloyd Wright during the construction of the Guggenheim Museum in New York. This home exemplifies organic modern architecture, featuring steel and gunite construction with elegant curved white walls throughout. Originally designed as a second residence for artist Eugenia Hunt, it has captivated passersby for decades with its stunning location by the lake. Each room offers breathtaking views of Lake Travis through bespoke windows and sliding doors that lead to balconies and patios extending to the water's edge. The Living Room showcases a floating wood bench against a curved wall, complemented by a kiva-style fireplace, creating an inviting space for intimate gatherings. The distinctive round Kitchen, adorned with a blend of blue tiles and wood cabinets, appears to float above a lower deck. A notable highlight of the home is its captivating spiral staircase with wooden treads, crowned by teardrop-shaped skylights reminiscent of a sand dollar, evoking a sense of natural wonder. All three bedrooms are situated on the lower level, each opening onto porches through glass doors, providing serene retreats with lake views. Designed for entertaining, the Sand Dollar House allows guests to savor panoramic vistas from within, then seamlessly transition to expansive porches and decks leading to the lakeshore, ensuring every gathering is unforgettable.
