Perched atop The Hill in the heart of historic Smithville, this charming pier and beam home blends classic architecture, small-town soul, and thoughtful modern touches. Set on nearly a quarter of an acre of flat, usable land, it offers space to breathe and a serene hilltop setting in one of Texas’s most beloved towns. Wrapped in warm wood siding and framed by a generous wraparound porch—complete with a storybook porch swing—the home invites you to savor slow mornings and golden hour light. Its elevated position offers a peaceful sense of privacy. Inside, the two-bedroom, one-and-a-half-bath layout is filled with natural light thanks to high ceilings and large wood-framed windows throughout. The open kitchen flows seamlessly into the living area, creating an airy, connected space for daily living or casual entertaining. Both bedrooms are restful and bright, and the full and half baths add convenience. The laundry room—styled as a mudroom—features a concrete floor and direct access to a covered back patio in your private fenced back yard, perfect for pets or just enjoying your little piece of heaven. Beyond the home, a detached wood-sided building offers flexible use as a studio, workshop, or storage, and a four-car covered parking area is a rare and valuable feature. Washer, dryer, and refrigerator convey, making this a truly move-in-ready opportunity. Just 45 minutes from Austin, Smithville offers a vibrant yet laid-back lifestyle with a walkable historic district, local shops, cafes, riverside parks, and a welcoming community spirit. Whether you’re searching for a full-time home, a weekend retreat, or a light-filled creative space, this hilltop haven offers timeless charm, comfort, and exceptional livability.
