Wake up to the San Marcos River. This 3.9-acre Martindale property sits above the Scull Road bridge with a half-acre peninsula extending into the water — river frontage on three sides, direct access for kayaking and fishing, and no flood history. The 1958 ranch-style home spans 3,112 sq ft with only two owners in its 65+ year history. Recent upgrades include a reinforced pier and beam foundation, new premium-shingle roof, and updated electrical system. Inside: a kitchen built around a high-end gas range, a sun room that catches morning light, and a flexible fourth room. One of the most unique river setups along the San Marcos.
