When does a house become an estate? In the case of a place we saw on Lake Travis Saturday night, it's when there is a separate 'pavilion' with restrooms and a catering kitchen, a covered area several times as large as my condo and a terrace overlooking Lake Travis. All of this separated from the actual home by a waterfall. I said a couple of times that I wouldn't want to pay to maintain it! We were attending a party to kick off the season of Austin Lyric Opera. I wish I could say divas stood on that terrace and belted out some arias but there was no musical entertainment, sadly.
