Description
Set in the Texas countryside, the land offers open meadows, mature oaks, and natural privacy. It’s an ideal backdrop for a custom home, with space to design around the views, the trees, and the way you want to live. The existing home is a great starting point and works well as a guest house, weekend retreat, or a comfortable place to enjoy while your vision comes to life. Inside, you’ll find hardwood floors, vaulted ceilings, and an open living, dining, and kitchen area filled with natural light. The primary bedroom and two full baths are on the main level, with a loft bedroom above accessed by a spiral staircase. Outdoor living feels easy here. A covered patio with wood beams, an outdoor kitchen, built-in gas grill, sink, and bar is ideal for gathering. In contrast, a second patio tucked beneath the shade of towering oaks offers a quieter place to relax and take in the surroundings. The property is well-equipped with a detached two-car garage that includes an office and workspace, a separate hobby or art studio, two fenced dog runs, and covered parking for an RV or boat, offering flexibility for hobbies, storage, or weekend projects. An agricultural exemption will be in place this year, making the property eligible for a wildlife exemption filing in 2027.
