Wind your way up the scenic drive to a hilltop home in the heart of Dripping Springs. There is room to roam all over this private estate- with more than seven tree-covered acres, nearly 3,500 square feet of living space, and long-range views in every direction. The Texas limestone home has both charm and character, with oversized spaces, two bedrooms downstairs, formal and casual dining areas, dormer windows, a built-in library, and a private office or media room above the garage. The living area features a wood-burning fireplace and French doors that open onto the back patio, with a sweet native garden. The front porch is the perfect place to sit and enjoy the sunset over the hills. Very lightly restricted- bring your animals and settle into a convenient, yet peaceful life. There is a rainwater collection system + a well for sustainable living. This property offers peaceful Hill Country living just minutes from Dripping Springs conveniences, local wineries, and top-rated schools.
