Modern Lake House on Lake Buchanan

Inspired by Paul Rudolph's Umbrella House in 1950s Florida, this home is located on Shaw Island which is known for its granite sand beaches.

The home features cypress exterior siding and walls of glass windows. The living room's sunken conversation area with huge stone fireplace is a great place to gather after a day on the lake.

The gourmet kitchen features top-of-the line Jenn-Air stainless appliances, granite counters, and custom cabinets which are sure to please any chef. All of the baths feature Hakatai glass tile, and the downstairs bath has a steam shower. The floors are concrete, tile and tiger wood throughout.

Enjoy fishing, water-skiing, or sailing on this beautiful lake which rises with the spring rains. The lake at full level laps just below the granite boulders by the patio. This is one of the few Texas lakes that has waves from time to time. Own one of the coolest homes on the lake.

Offered at $450,000
