I guess I have never been in a house that was worth over a million dollars... until today. Our REALTOR® tour took us to the shores of Lake Austin. This FIRST HOUSE is listed for $3,775,000. It is 7000 square feet! It has 4 bedrooms, 3 full and 3 half baths, 4 living areas and 2 dining.
The pool overlooks the lake and has a negative-edge (disappearing)!
The kitchen was a complete gourmet masterpiece and an extra double Sub-zero tucked in the butler's pantry.
The grand room was off of the kitchen with huge doors going onto the back patio.
THE SECOND HOME is listed for only $2,399,000.
The pool was at the entrance of the home with fountains arching into it.
The den had hand-scraped wood floors and pulley-system fans!
The kitchen was great. Notice the thick granite on the island with its rough edges.I think I'll wait for the mansions on the other side! They won't come with utility or cleaning bills. A home is where you make it. We have been amazed in our married life how much we have been able to be at home in whatever house or apartment we have lived in. A "home" is a state of mind, not a particular type of house. We have often commented on how my mother-in-law, Sis. Layne, always made whatever they lived in a home - houses, RV, or double-wide! Remember - "HOME" is where the heart is. Have a great week and enjoy your family - no matter what you have or where you sleep!

And the mansions on the other side won't have property taxes, too. We have friends here in California who's property taxes are nearly $1500.00 per month.
The houses you pictured are beautiful but would be double the price here in California.
Jana,
What you say it true! I guess I will have to take my words back, because I have been in houses in California "worth" 1 million or more... but to us Texans, they aren't really worth that! LOL! Thanks for stopping by.
I've been tellin' Kim that we should just stay in our "Home" over the funeral home. Thanks for the support!! haha:)
Wow! Beautiful places. And yes, Jana is right. A house like one of these would be nearly double the price. It's crazy but that's just how it is. :)
WOW! These homes are breath-taking!! I'm sure glad mine is PAID OFF!! My mansion in Heaven will certainly be worth it all!
I'll stay in mine, thanks! I wouldn't want the monthly bills and taxes. Every day Heaven's sounding sweeter!!!
How fun it must have been to tour them! 3700 sq ft is more than I want to keep up with! Since Trent is about to be married I'm already considering down sizing. Thanks for sharing!
Enjoyed the house tours. Wow, what you can get in Texas for over a million and what you get out here in California is as different as night and day. Oh well, thank God for my costly, humble California abode.
I'm a little behind in my commenting...lol, but the houses are cool! I'll keep dreaming...
