Nearly half an acre, mature oak trees and no HOA set this distinctive San Marcos home apart. Tucked into the established Turkey Hollow neighborhood, this single story 3 bedroom, 2 bath limestone home pairs Hill Country character with an open, comfortable floor plan. Vaulted ceilings, an exposed beam, Saltillo tile and a dramatic floor-to-ceiling limestone fireplace create a living space unlike today's cookie-cutter construction. The oversized primary suite includes a walk-in closet, private bath and direct backyard access. Outside, the tree-shaded .47 acre lot offers a patio, pergola, storage building and plenty of room to relax, garden or entertain. Add an attached 2 car garage and convenient access to Texas State, downtown, shopping and I35, and you've found a rare combination of space, character and freedom in San Marcos.
