Picturesque and private, this unrestricted 16+/- acre retreat in southern Blanco County offers the rare combination of Hill Country seclusion, self-sufficient living, and convenient access to Austin and San Antonio. The home is nestled among heavily wooded acreage and surrounded by large acreage neighbors providing exceptional privacy and versatility for a private homestead, horses, livestock, hunting, recreation, or a more independent lifestyle. Thoughtfully constructed in 2011, the stone-accented residence was designed for relaxed Hill Country living, with an open floor plan and generous covered porches that invite year-round enjoyment of the peaceful surroundings. At the heart of the home, a handsome stone fireplace anchors the living space, while an expansive chef's kitchen and oversized pantry provide abundant room for cooking, entertaining, and storage. Three generously sized bedrooms and a dedicated office offer comfortable accommodations and flexibility. The spacious primary suite is a retreat of its own, complete with a freestanding woodburning stove and private covered veranda, creating the perfect setting for morning coffee while watching whitetail deer, turkey, axis and native birds move through the surrounding landscape. Well equipped for both everyday comfort and greater self-reliance, the property features an impressive 50 GPM well, 2,750 gal water storage tank, solar panels, and a standby propane generator. Exceptionally low PEC electric bills add to the property's efficiency, with excess solar production sold back to the grid. A versatile 30' x 50' RV barn with water and multiple 50amp electric hookups and enclosed workshop further expands the property's possibilities. Well suited for equipment, vehicles, ranch projects, hobbies, or additional storage. With unrestricted acreage, strong water infrastructure, renewable energy features, abundant wildlife, and room for horses and livestock, this property offers tremendous potential to create a truly self-sustaining Hill Country sanctuary. A Wildlife Management Valuation provides the added benefit of reduced property taxes. Peaceful and private yet remarkably well positioned, the ranch offers convenient access to Wimberley, New Braunfels, San Marcos, Fredericksburg, Austin and San Antonio. Here, modern efficiency and authentic Hill Country character come together in a setting that invites you to slow down, spread out, and embrace a deeper connection to the land.
