Homes with amenities to channel your inner Olympian

Live like a world-class athlete at one of these three homes with Olympics-adjacent amenities that are on the market now here in Austin.

A serene and luxurious lakeside property. In the foreground, there's a beautifully designed pool with a natural stone waterfall feature and adjacent hot tub. Several lounge chairs are arranged around the pool. Beyond the pool, there is a large, well-manicured lawn leading to the lake, a basketball court, and a boathouse with an upper deck stands at the water's edge. The lake is calm and surrounded by lush, green trees and hills, creating a picturesque and tranquil setting. The sky is clear and blue, enhancing the overall idyllic atmosphere.

This house on Big View Drive also includes a pool with a waterslide and plenty of places to lounge between training.

After two weeks of watching some of the best athletes in the world during the Olympics, you may feel inspired to get on your feet.

Living in one of these houses would allow you to unleash your potential and begin training. Pro tip — you can catch the rest of the Olympics coverage by tuning into KVUE.

Nestled in north Austin, this home is perfect to transform into your home gym oasis. Between the two decks, fountain pool, dual limestone terraces with retractable awnings, and practice putting green, you’ll want to spend just as much time outside as within. The interior was made for entertaining, with a huge chef’s kitchen and whole-house Sonos sound system. Plus, views of the Pennybacker Bridge don’t disappoint.

Wake up and waste no time getting to training, with a door that leads directly from the primary bedroom to the pool at this house on Calera Drive.

Stretching an expansive 4,948 sqft, this home is the ideal place for an athlete at rest, from the bedroom lined with bay windows and two closets (one for athleisure and one for street wear), to the spacious bathroom with a soaking tub and separated shower. The jewels of this home are the nearly one-acre yard that backs up to the Fazio Canyons Golf Course and the negative-edge pool for practicing your laps.

8208 Big View Drive | $7,650,000 | Listing agent: Beth Drewett
This vast home is a haven for athletes of all types, but especially the basketball stars. Players can enjoy their own personal court to practice their dunks, or invite friends over for a pick-up game. But as you play, watch the ball, as the court is flanked by a dock with Lake Austin access on one end and a waterfall pool (complete with a grotto) on the other.
