An exceptional opportunity awaits on nearly 20 unrestricted acres backing to a large ranch, providing unmatched privacy. This scenic property features a mix of heritage oaks, pecan trees, and open pasture—ideal for livestock or simply enjoying the serene setting. The remodeled home is set well back from the road in a natural, private landscape. The land, once owned by the last Vice President of the Republic of Texas, is fully fenced and cross-fenced, offering multiple building sites and sweeping views from the elevated back portion. Additional features include a greenhouse, organic garden beds, wild-growing herbs, and a fruit grove with peach and plum trees, with native persimmon trees on the land as well. A custom chicken coop, pole barn, and even a private 2-hole golf course add character and function. An ag exemption keeps property taxes low. Originally built in 1867 and thoughtfully redesigned by V Mode De Vie Design, the 3,019 sq ft home blends historic charm with a clean, modern farmhouse style. The home offers 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, oak floors, and a beautifully appointed kitchen with top-tier appliances, hidden refrigerator and dishwasher, and central air with commercial-grade windows for year-round comfort. Updated major systems and a cellar complete the home's appeal. Located just 1 mile off Highway 281 and 15 minutes from Marble Falls, Horseshoe Bay, Lake LBJ, Lake Travis, and Johnson City—this property offers easy access to the Hill Country's best while remaining a peaceful and private retreat.
