8.26 acres, nearly 5,600 square feet, behind the gates of Retablo Ranch. This is one of the largest private holdings you will find this close to San Antonio, and it comes with the extra land to protect it. The additional lot conveys with the property, giving you room for a guest house, a barn, an arena, or simply a permanent buffer between you and everyone else. That flexibility is what makes this listing different from anything else in the Hill Country at this price. The home itself was designed and built by custom builder J. Long. You pass through the community gates, then through a second private entrance onto the estate, with mature oaks and open countryside on both sides. Soaring ceilings, multiple living areas, and a chef's kitchen with custom cabinetry, granite counters, gas cooking, double ovens, and an oversized island that anchors the whole floor plan. The primary suite sits privately on its own, with a sitting area, spa inspired bath, and a door straight to the outdoors. Upstairs you get additional bedrooms, a game room, and flex space for family, guests, and hobbies. Outside is where this one sells itself. Pool and spa, covered patios, outdoor kitchen, and long views that turn every sunset into an event. Tesla solar panels are already installed and convey. For the practical side: large workshop, RV and boat storage, and extensive garage space. Room for horses, recreation, or future expansion across the acreage. Gated. Private. Custom built. Two lots. Minutes from San Antonio. Properties like this do not come back around. Schedule your private showing.
