On a Mission
Welcome to Austin ’ s lakefront riviera , though you ’ ll be excused for thinking you ’ re actually visiting a California coastal getaway .
The design , by Mark Ashby Design ’ s Christina Simon , captures the essence of a traditional Santa Barbara beachside retreat , and has come a long way from its previously choppy layout and brooding vibe to one that is sunny and ready to take on a day at the lake .
The original lakeside home was built in the 1950s and renovated in the 1990s . Partnering with Shiflet Richardson Architects in 2015 , the Mark Ashby team worked on the home for a few years . At almost 10,000 square feet with six bedrooms and seven bathrooms , there was plenty to do .
