Tranquil 25-acre wildlife-exempt ranchette located just three miles outside of Blanco, encompassing a luminous 2,800+/- square foot Hill Country Craftsman residence with 2 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, a spacious carriage house featuring a 2.5-bay garage with a charming 1-bedroom, 1-bath casita above, and a separate 40' x 45' metal workshop, all surrounded by majestic heritage oaks and sweeping Hill Country vistas. Offering the rare combination of complete freedom with no HOA oversight and the significant financial benefit of a wildlife exemption that helps keep annual property taxes remarkably low, this exceptional property embodies the very best of Texas ranch living. The moment you arrive, the extraordinary craftsmanship and timeless rustic elegance create an immediate sense of home. Thoughtfully designed to capture panoramic Hill Country views from nearly every window, the residence is anchored by soaring vaulted trusses and a Texas-sized stone fireplace that brings warmth and grandeur to the open living spaces, creating the perfect setting for both intimate evenings and large-scale entertaining. The chef's kitchen showcases custom cabinetry and flows effortlessly into the dining area, highlighted by a striking accent wall and French doors leading to an inviting outdoor dining space beyond the masonry wall. The generous primary suite offers exceptional comfort with a large walk-in closet, private covered porch, and an intelligently designed floor plan that provides the opportunity to expand the main residence with additional bedrooms, allowing the home to evolve with your lifestyle. A beautiful floating cedar staircase leads to the lofted guest suite complete with an office area, spacious bedroom, and ensuite bath. Enjoy spectacular sunsets, prevailing breezes, and abundant native wildlife from the expansive wraparound porch. The carriage house offers generous storage below and a delightful guest casita above with a full bath and sitting area, creating ideal accommodations for family or visitors. Beyond, the 1200+/-sf concrete-floored workshop is perfectly suited for ranch equipment, hobbies, recreational vehicles, or future projects. The fully fenced acreage features rolling terrain ideal for livestock, horses, or continued wildlife management, while established purple martin birdhouses further enhance the natural habitat. With no HOA restrictions to limit your vision, you'll enjoy the flexibility to customize and utilize the property as you see fit while benefiting from the wildlife exemption's ongoing tax advantages. Just minutes from the restaurants, boutiques, and charm of historic Blanco and the Blanco River, and conveniently located approximately one hour from both Austin and San Antonio, this is an extraordinary opportunity to own a private Hill Country retreat where luxury, freedom, and enduring value come together.
