About This Property
A true one-of-a-kind property in the Austin area, this exceptional new build combines modern luxury with Texas country charm and offers endless possibilities for multi-generational living, income-producing opportunities, or even commercial use as a venue or horse ranch. As you enter through the electric front gate, a paved private road leads you to the main home, where stone and stucco construction, wood accents, and exterior lighting create stunning curb appeal. Inside, the open-concept design features soaring 12-foot coffered ceilings, custom wood-look tile flooring, designer light fixtures, and an oversized kitchen island with quartzite countertops. The chef's kitchen also includes custom cabinetry and energy-efficient stainless-steel appliances. This home was built with efficiency in mind--LED lighting, tinted vinyl windows, and motorized shades enhance comfort and energy savings. The luxurious primary suite is a true retreat, showcasing large porcelain tile, dual vanity areas, a spa-inspired shower with multifunction heads, and a spacious custom-designed walk-in closet. Entertaining is effortless with a covered outdoor patio featuring cedar ceilings, a wood-burning fireplace, and a granite sink station--perfect for game days and family gatherings. In addition to the main residence, a separate 2-bedroom, 1-bath home built in 2009 provides ideal accommodations for in-laws, guests, or rental income. This second home has its own electric meter and carport, allowing true independence. The property is fully outfitted for country living with a newly built barn, two greenhouse areas with electricity, a 2,500-gallon water tank, and expansive fenced pastures--ready for horses, livestock, or future agricultural projects. With its multi-functional layout, abundant amenities, and prime location just 40 minutes from Downtown Austin, this estate offers endless opportunities to create your dream lifestyle.
