Secluded Hill Country sanctuary where absolute peace, privacy, and timeless beauty converge across 33+ gently rolling unrestricted acres. Tucked beneath a magnificent canopy of heritage live oaks and surrounded by lush native landscape, this remarkable property has been thoughtfully improved to create the feel of a private family compound by offering flexibility for multi-generational living, a weekend retreat, hobby ranch, or future estate with the freedom to shape the property according to your own vision. The improvements include an immaculate main residence completely renovated in 2000, a beautifully appointed guest cottage, an independent office or studio, a heated and cooled two car garage with workshop, RV carport, fenced and cross-fenced pastures encompassing more than 10 acres of productive grazing land, seasonal creek and half acre pond. The light-filled two-bedroom, two-bath main residence is thoughtfully designed to embrace its tranquil surroundings, with expansive picture windows installed in 2013 framing majestic live oaks and inviting the outdoors in. Quality craftsmanship throughout evokes the warmth and permanence of classic Hill Country homes, showcasing solid wood cased windows, custom cabinetry, and generous covered porches perfectly suited for morning coffee or quiet evenings accompanied only by birdsong and gentle Hill Country breezes. The spacious primary suite serves as a true private retreat featuring a handsome stone fireplace, comfortable sitting area, additional storage, laundry facilities, exterior access, and a gracious bath with dual vanities, roll-in shower, and oversized walk-in closet. Designed for both everyday comfort and effortless entertaining, the open-concept floorplan flows naturally from the great room through the kitchen into a secondary living area before leading to a private junior suite with full bath and access to the expansive covered patio. Privately positioned beyond its own gated entrance, the charming guest cottage offers complete independence with a welcoming wraparound porch, full kitchen, laundry, and bath, ideal for extended family, guests, or caretaker accommodations. A separate standalone office provides exceptional flexibility as a private workspace, studio, fitness room, or creative retreat. The surrounding acreage is equally impressive, offering useable topography, productive grazing pasture, livestock pens, mature hardwoods, abundant wildlife including whitetail and axis deer, and two functional wells. A wildlife exemption helps maintain exceptionally low property taxes while preserving the property's natural beauty. Perhaps the greatest luxury is the absence of use restrictions which provide a rare opportunity to enjoy the land exactly as intended or thoughtfully transform it over time. Expand the existing improvements, create an equestrian estate, establish a working ranch, hunt, cultivate gardens or vineyards, or simply preserve this peaceful retreat for generations to come, all just minutes to restaurants, wineries and shopping in Blanco and Fredericksburg.
