The north shore of Lake Travis is a bit far out for some people, but is has some very nice real estate. The north shore starts at Mansfield Dam and wraps around through Volente towards Jonestown and Lago Vista.
Volente is just 30-40 minutes northwest of the downtown Austin area, but as you get more toward Lago Vista it can take well over 60 minutes to get to downtown in mile traffic. The area is closer to Cedar Park and Leander than much of Austin.
Major shopping, restaurants and medical care can be found at the intersection of Hwy 183 and RR 1431. More can be found on and either side of 183 driving toward Round Rock and Austin.
As you go farther out the north shore on 1431 you are pretty far out in the country. If you take 1431 farther out you eventually get to Marble Falls and the other Highland Lakes.
Each neighborhood has the Austin MLS Area beside it. To see the Area, click for an Austin MLS map. Take a look at homes in different communities on the north shore of Lake Travis below by following the links below.
