Property Description
Outside the main walls, enjoy a guesthouse with a bedroom upstairs and a full bath and a workshop on the main level.
The owners meticulously rebuilt this home from the ground up with a singular emphasis on eco-friendly living. Four rainwater collection tanks, including one that holds 30,000 gallons offer cutting-edge purification technologies that guarantee an ample supply of pristine year-round. The solar electric system reliably powers the property, with current cumulative electrical credit of $1,100. Beyond the walls, the magic of this property truly unfolds. Nestled among tree covered hills and a tranquil meandering creek, this exceptional land is teeming with wildlife, from foxes and deer to armadillos and racoons. Approximately half of the acreage consists of lush green pastures, perfect for livestock or agricultural pursuits, while the other half sits atop a gently sloping hill, offering breathtaking views of the surrounding Hill Country. With a total investment exceeding $500K plus over $100K of labor, the owners spared no expense in creating an unparalleled living experience. Yet living here is incredibly cost effective: a tax rate of just 1.5%, free crystal-clear rainwater, and PV arrays that more than offset electricity usage, recurring costs are minimal.
