This 3.5 acre retreat sitting in Bexar County, served by Comal County schools, offers a rare combination of flexibility and livability. With no HOA and no restrictions, the vision you have for how to live here - whether that's horses, chickens, a workshop, or simply room to breathe - doesn't need anyone's approval. The main home covers 1,105 square feet in a layout that actually uses the space well. An open floor plan keeps the living area connected and social, anchored by a wood-burning stove that makes the room feel entirely different on a cool Hill Country evening. The primary bedroom is genuinely large, with a walk-in closet. A full bathroom serves the home's two bedrooms. A long concrete driveway sets the arrival experience before you even reach the front door, and covered porches along the side of the home and off the back frame views of the surrounding hills in a way that makes sitting outside feel less like an afterthought and more like the point. The casita adds 877 square feet of additional living space to the property - a separate structure with its own bathroom, kitchen, wood tongue-and-groove cathedral ceilings, and a spiral staircase leading up to a loft bedroom. Whether it becomes a guest suite, a rental, a home office compound, or housing for extended family, it operates independently and holds its own. Beyond the two structures, a large barn on a concrete slab comes wired with electricity and connected to water. Cross-fencing is already in place for those who want to run animals and the property is explicitly unrestricted, so farm animals are welcome from day one. A four car carport handles vehicles, equipment, or both, and a small garden with two established, high-producing peach trees suggests the land responds well to the people who tend it. The Hill Country views are the backdrop to all of it - present from the porch and visible across the property, it's the kind of scenery that tends to be the reason people look in this direction in the first place. The setting has a genuine sense of seclusion, yet shopping and restaurants are only about ten minutes away. There is meaningful room to expand here, and the bones are already in place to build something lasting. Shared water well.
