1934 N. Walnut Springs Rd
A pastoral country home in The Preserve at Walnut Springs in Johnson City, Texas, thoughtfully designed by Rick & Cindy Black Architects for durability and comfort in the hill country. Sited on 7 acres, the homesite includes a main house and detached studio, with stone garden walls and 1-acre fence enclosure.
The main residence, at 1,584 square feet, pairs heirloom-quality construction with high-end finishes, and includes an expansive primary suite, dressing room with built-in daybed, chef’s kitchen and pantry, and living and dining areas to host many guests. An authentic wood-burning stove encourages nights around the fire. A terrace with steel trellis expands the living toward the west for sunset views across the pasture.

Sited within the garden is a charming 324-square-foot detached studio. Guests are accommodated with a built-in double queen bunk, half bath and outdoor shower. The studio interior is made more grand with a vaulted ceiling constructed of solid Douglas fir timbers and boards, and offers work-from-home possibility with a built-in desk and storage loft.
The homesite is serviced by a 31,000 gallon rainwater collection system and septic, both sized for future additions. The architects have created plans included with the sale, to expand the footprint with an additional 2-bedroom 2-bath, plus garage.
The terraced landscape is entirely usable and borders the tranquil Towhead Creek, creating a rare and serene natural setting. The Preserve at Walnut Springs amenities include a 10-stall equestrian barn and shared ranch horses, 22 miles of trails, hunting blinds, fishing ponds, and clubhouse compound with two pools and sport courts.
