About this property
Luxury Lakefront Escape: Massage, Yoga, Winery, Kayaks, SUPs, Krause Springs!
Awe-inspiring with a mystical mojo, La Casa de Joy was designed with exacting intention by an artist and healer who’s paintings can still be found on the enchanted walls of this one-of-a-kind lakefront masterpiece. Drawing on the principles of Vastu and Feng Shui, La Casa de Joy’s pampering pulse brings all who enter into perfect alignment – body, mind, and soul.
Recently featured on CBS’s show “Staycation,” La Casa de Joy is our awe-inspiring lakefront 1-bed, 2-bath luxury straw-bale villa on Lake Travis. Drawing on the principles of Vastu and Feng Shui, this masterpiece of a home was designed with exacting intention, and the mystical vibe is felt in every little thoughtful detail. La Casa de Joy was also once featured on HGTV’s Straw with Style, Designing Texas, and was the cover feature for Natural Home Magazine.
Upon entering the ground’s front entrance, you are met with an expansive view of the entire property, sounds of the zen koi pond, and a glimpse and faint smell of the organic herb and vegetable garden. Walk through antique door and soaring entry way into the downstairs main living area showcasing 35 ft. ceilings and a towering cornerstone fireplace, sunken seated coffee/sitting lounge, & fully equipped chef’s kitchen. Upstairs you’ll find a stunning large master bedroom with queen size bed, a cozy study, master bath with dual sided fireplace (take a bath by the fire!), and a spiral staircase leading to the 3rd floor meditation room & viewing tower. You’ll be naturally drawn through the back doors and on to the delightful covered porch with a fireplace, porch swing, sound of the wind chimes, gorgeous views of the lake and epic sunsets, and the palpable feeling of being immersed in nature.
