Fall in love with this epic Texas Hill country dream estate. Nestled in a prime location on 5.01 acres just 25 minutes south of downtown, this three-bedroom home with a guest house has an Austin address while feeling like a country oasis, offering the best of both worlds the exceptional Dripping Springs schools with a coveted retreat with abundant nature and greenery. Beyond the gated driveway, the limestone faade, commercial windows and massive oak trees draw visitors to this stunning home. Panoramic views abound from the newly replaced 2,000 square feet of decks with seven access points to the house making this the ideal place to entertain guests and soak in the surroundings. Through the front door are beautiful shiplap soaring ceilings 20 feet high that culminate in the Great Room. The rest of the home has ceilings ranging from 10 feet to over 24 feet high in the primary bedroom with a unique cat-walk library. The primary bedroom suite has three walk-in closets, two exterior doors for deck access, extraordinary views of grand oak trees, and an en suite bath with dual hammered copper sinks, a large soaking tub and room for an exercise bike or sauna. Upstairs is a large bright and light bedroom with vaulted ceilings. The guest house, connected by a footbridge to the main house, has a large bedroom with a full bath and a fully enclosed courtyard with a fire pit. It offers privacy, intimate gatherings in dozens of rooms or nooks around the property, poker nights, billiards and darts gatherings or a big backyard pool party.
Testimony to the builders forward-thinking focus on sustainability, the pier and beam foundation, south-facing metal roof, north-facing limestone walls and catchment of rainwater all minimize electricity usage. Numerous projects upgraded and modernized the property such as the addition of two top-of-the-line XL solar arrays with 38 panels, supplementing the propertys energy needs. An extra deep well was also dug to back up the rainwater system and be the main water source. Water purification systems for each house were upgraded and put on independent pumps. The remodeling of the guest house added insulation, new drywall, AC ducts and the replacement of 22 windows with custom commercial-grade dual pane windows. The large studio treehouse on the property with 16 foot ceilings and 270 views offers an ideal place for yoga, an art space or a place to relax with nature. There is also a new commercial-grade resort-style pool with blue-tech self-cleaning, spa and fire pit that perfectly fits within the towering oak trees.
Located in an area poised for continued rapid growth, this estate will only grow in its value and appeal.
