Nestled beneath a canopy of trees with sweeping 30+ mile hilltop views, this custom-designed and custom-built 1975 country estate captures the essence of peaceful Texas living. The style is country lodge and very relaxing.
Situated on 2.66 acres on the edge of Gatesville in Coryell County Tx, the home offers both privacy and convenience—just 45 minutes to Waco, 1.5 hours to Austin, and only 30 minutes from Temple.
The two-level residence features 4 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, a dedicated study, two living rooms, a sun/plant room, a third level crows nest observation room, two dining areas, a breakfast room, and two full kitchens. Designed with versatility in mind, the layout allows the home to function seamlessly as one spacious estate or as two independent living spaces—an upstairs and a downstairs residence—perfect for multi-generational living.
A detached two-car garage completes the property, making this estate a rare combination of charm, functionality, and breathtaking natural beauty.
