Lake Travis Mansions

When I first moved here in 1984 I drove out Lake Travis and truly fell in love with Austin.  The view from the area around St. Luke's church was just stunning.  In 1988, I looked at lake lots on Lake Travis--found some for around $80,000 with cute little houses.   Recently, I took a ride out on a friend's boat and snapped some pictures.  These aren't $80,000 cute little houses are they--Here's a few snapshots of how the other half (well ok 1%) live.

amazing how bad these are architecturally. The fourth one down comes close to having architectural qualities, but still has a mishmash of windows and elements that dont make sense.

actually fifth down
