Reserve Showcase Flyer

The Second Annual Community Showcase

A small group of home builders in Austin including Sterling Custom Homes will open their build sites to the public during the second annual Community Showcase at The Reserve at Lake Travis this weekend. The event will take place on Sunday, Oct. 23 from Noon to 5pm. This event will provide  a fantastic opportunity to see two beautiful Sterling Custom Homes near completion.

The two homes we are featuring in the showcase are both located on waterfront properties. The first is at 2109 Ruffian Heights Cove and has 4,649 square feet of living space with 4 bedrooms, 4 baths and 2 half baths. The second home at 1700 Poco Bueno Court is 5,381 square feet and has 4 bedrooms, 4 baths and 3 half baths. When you think of these two homes’ specs you might think that they are very similar. In fact, they are not. They are two completely different homes and both have very unique, Sterling features.

The best way to understand the unique features that we implement in our custom homes would be to come out and see them. When you come to The Reserve on Sunday and register for the event, you will be entered to win a 50” TV, a delightful companion to any custom media room or game room. We look forward to seeing you all on Sunday and discussing your luxury custom homes!

Austin luxury real estate

111 Escavera Cove at Flintrock Falls

It does not seem like all that long ago Austin custom home builder, Sterling Custom Homes, announced that they would begin selling lots in Escavera at Flintrock Falls. Escavera began with 20 estate-sized lots all with views of Jack Nicklaus designed Flintrock Falls Golf Course. Sterling Custom Homes is proud to say that nearly two-thirds of the lots in Excavera have been sold. With four homes already constructed and the planning and construction process of six others began, a new opportunity for custom home buyers has presented itself.

In promotion of Escavera at Flintrock Falls, Sterling Custom Homes built a model home to showcase their capabilities as a premier Austin luxury home builder. With the construction of the new homes in Escavera, Sterling Custom Homes is now ready to post their model home at 111 Escavera Cove for sale, creating the perfect opportunity for those who would like the quality and value of a Sterling Custom Home and who are ready to move in immediately.

Austin luxury real estateYou’ve chosen your lot; you’re ready to build your Austin luxury real estate…What do you need to do to make sure you take advantage of that killer view?

At Sterling Custom Homes, we love to be involved with our clients from the very start. Laying out the footprint of the home is an important first step in the design process and it requires careful consideration. Of course most clients are interested in maximizing a certain view corridor, but there are many other variables at play that need to be discussed. Sun orientation, slab heights, trees, access – these are just a few of the topics that arise when we meet on the lot with our client and the architect. Once these topics are discussed, we can assess which views are most important to the client and from which rooms they would like the views to be seen.

The above picture illustrates the design of this Lake Travis home which frames the view of the cove leading to the main body of Lake Travis. What you don’t see are the many factors that were considered before the decision was made to adopt this orientation and maximize the view. The home is actually turned at the end of an entry corridor to look out over the back right corner of the lot, rather than looking directly back parallel from the street. The results are spectacular!

Sterling Custom Homes is quickly becoming the “builder of choice” for property owners interested in building the highest quality, best value custom Austin luxury real estate in The Reserve at Lake Travis!

Yesterday we poured our most recent foundation at the Mahood Residence, 2109 Ruffian Heights Cove, on a cliff overlooking the magnificent Lake Travis. This home will be a beautiful addition to that fine community and marks our second custom home of only a handful of custom home starts in the area.

The Reserve is a unique and coveted community boasting incredible Lake Travis frontage, a full-service Equestrian Center, a Lazy River Pool, world class Marina and a private Cypress Club Pavilion for its members. There’s really nothing like it in this area, with all these amenities constructed at this early stage of its existence. Read More→
