3345 E AUSTIN STREET, GIDDINGS, TX 78942

Some properties are simply in a category of their own. This 6,743-square-foot estate sits on 6.67 acres inside city limits -- a rare combination of scale, seclusion, and accessibility that rarely comes to market. The home itself is built for a life lived fully. Seven bedrooms, five full bathrooms, multiple living areas, a game room, sunroom, and dedicated office give every member of the household room to spread out. At the center of it all is a chef's kitchen with an oversized island, granite countertops, vaulted ceilings, and a full suite of Jenn-Air stainless appliances -- including dual refrigerators. A butler's pantry and laundry combination keeps daily life running quietly in the background. For those who entertain, the 1,644-square-foot entertainment room opens directly to a pool and hot tub -- a setup that handles everything from intimate dinners to large-scale events with equal ease. Outside, the grounds feel like a world apart. A large, stocked pond with a concrete walking path, a waterfall fish-pond, and a canopy of mature trees create an environment that's more like a retreat than a backyard. A fireplace anchors the interior with warmth during cooler months. What sets this property apart, in a practical sense, is its dual commercial and residential zoning, with 796' of Highway 290 frontage on the corridor between Austin and Houston -- an increasingly rare designation that opens the door to a private compound, an event venue, a business headquarters, or a combination of all three. Whether you are a Lee County native, commuting to Samsung, or love the antiques of Round Top, this 6.67 Acres provides endless possibilities with city water and services, a spring-fed artesian well, room to live, work, and build something lasting. Private showings available by appointment.
