About this property
VIEW GALLERY

We call our house "Flechazo," which translates to "love at first sight." It is everything a vacation lake house should be: of course it's on the water, with a spectacular panoramic view of beautiful Lake Buchanan, the largest and most scenic of the Central Texas Highland Lakes. And of course it's a fully stocked vacation house, with all the amenities of home. And of course it's spacious. It's not a cabin or a "cottage" or a condo: this is a roomy 1,800 sf home, with 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths, laundry room, full kitchen, and large dining and living areas. We even have a 2 car carport. But hold on! I'm just getting started!

Sitting on an entire acre of lakefront, Flechazo is actually on two lots, boasting a whopping 120 ft of waterfront. Believe me, that's a rare find on Lake Buchanan. We looked everywhere on all the Highland Lakes and this is the biggest we found. The lot is filled with mature trees offering plenty of shade to the sun weary. Part of the waterfront is sandy beach, another rarity on breezy Lake Buchanan. Best yet, enjoy the refreshing swimming pool with diving board just off the back porch. There is nothing finer than floating lazily in the pool while taking in the breathtaking view of the Texas Hill country just beyond the sparkling lake. We've got 2 twin beds and 2 full beds in 2 guest bedrooms, a queen in the master, and even an additional inflatable queen bed that can be put in any room. So there's plenty of room for eight.

Private and secluded, yet only a short drive to the small town comforts and restaurants of Burnet, Texas, Flechazo is the perfect get-away for a weekend or for the season.
