Homes for life in the Highland Lakes
Lake LBJ Custom Home Builder
The Hideaway · Horseshoe Bay, Texas
A place to return to
Build around the way you spend your time here.
A custom home around Lake LBJ begins with the life you want to make room for: weekends with friends, longer stays with family, or a daily routine rooted in the Hill Country. Those choices shape the relationship between gathering rooms, guest spaces, private retreats, and the outdoors.
Lucas Anthony brings architecture, interiors, and construction together to develop that home around your property. Our lake-area work includes completed residences in Horseshoe Bay, each with a distinct response to its setting. The Hideaway, Ember House, and Golden Hour offer different ways to think about light, shelter, materials, and shared space.
The rooms between inside and outside
Give outdoor living a place in the plan.
In our Horseshoe Bay homes, terraces and covered edges are part of the architectural idea from the beginning. The Hideaway opens toward mature oaks and a fire terrace. Ember House pairs broad glass openings with protected outdoor living. Golden Hour extends the central rooms beneath a cedar-lined terrace roof.
These are useful references for a home around Lake LBJ. Think about where meals will happen, how people will move between the kitchen and terrace, and which rooms should remain quiet when guests gather. The relationship between those spaces can matter as much as their individual size.
Gathering that feels easy
Consider the kitchen, dining space, living room, and terrace together. A clear connection supports everyday meals as well as a house full of people.
Space for guests and privacy
Describe who will stay and how often. That helps establish the balance between shared rooms, guest accommodation, and the places you use to recharge.
Shade, outlook, and shelter
Discuss the outdoor spaces you expect to use throughout the day. Their orientation and relationship to the house belong in early planning, alongside the views you want to frame.
Your homesite comes first
Turn a lake-area address into a specific design brief.
Every project begins with the actual property. A lot's orientation, access, topography, trees, infrastructure, and available views influence where a home can sit and how its spaces connect. Share a survey, listing, or existing plans if you have them, together with what drew you to the land.
We can begin while you are considering a purchase or after you own the lot. Early discussion helps identify the information still needed and the choices that affect the design and budget. Community requirements and any site-specific approvals need to be confirmed for the property as the scope develops.
Architecture, interiors, and construction
Bring the whole home into the conversation.
A room's proportions, the material underfoot, the cabinetry, and the opening to the terrace all contribute to the finished experience. Our design-build approach considers those decisions together, with construction knowledge informing the design and selections.
The process starts with your priorities and a shared brief. As the plan develops, scope, material choices, and pricing become more defined. Explore our completed projects to find the qualities that matter to you, then use the first conversation to discuss how they might take shape on your property.

Before you begin
A few useful questions.
Does Lucas Anthony build custom homes around Lake LBJ?
Yes. Lake LBJ is part of our Texas service area. Share the location of your property and what you hope to build so we can discuss the setting, the scope, and the next step for your project.
Where are the homes shown on this page?
The Hideaway, Ember House, and Golden Hour are in Horseshoe Bay, within our lake-area portfolio. Each project page identifies its location and includes a gallery of the home's architecture, interiors, and outdoor spaces.
How should I plan a home for weekends and longer stays?
Start with the people and routines the home needs to accommodate. Consider how many guests will stay, where everyone gathers, how much privacy you need, and which outdoor spaces you will use most. Those priorities provide a useful starting brief for the design conversation.
Do I need finished plans before contacting you?
No. You can begin with land, a property you are considering, or an early idea. We discuss the site, your priorities, the intended investment, and the level of design and construction coordination your project needs.
