Enchanting Hill Country Oasis: A Symphony of Luxury and Privacy

Nestled within the embrace of the picturesque Hill Country, this exclusive retreat stands as a testament to unparalleled privacy and refined living on a 6.49 ac deeded footprint surrounded by 1500+/- acres of preserve land. A 3-bed, 3.5-bath sanctuary, spanning 3372+/- SF, unfolds with grace, revealing a harmonious blend of nature and architectural splendor. Step into a world where the art of seclusion is mastered, highlighted by an expansive 661+/- SF screened porch, inviting you to revel in the serenity of uninterrupted starlit skies, free from the intrusion of city lights. The property, a masterpiece in craftsmanship, showcases meticulous limestone rockwork, framing captivating long-range views that extend over pristine preserve land incorporated into a prestigious ranch community.
This extraordinary homestead is a sanctuary powered solely by a pure 37k gallon rainwater harvesting system, eliminating the need for a well. A mere hour’s drive from the vibrant cities of Austin and San Antonio, it is part of the esteemed Preserve at Walnut Springs—a luxurious 2,000+ acre ranch community limited to just 66 homesites. The property benefits from an Ag-Exemption, courtesy of grazing longhorns that add a touch of rustic elegance to the landscape. Residents indulge in premier amenities such as swimming pools, tennis courts, a putting green, hammock grove, and over 22 miles of trails for horseback riding, hiking, biking, and running.

Luxurious Living Amidst Nature’s Embrace:
Enter a realm of sophistication as you approach this grand residence, welcomed by a charming porch and oversized custom wooden doors. Inside, the open living and dining spaces soar with ceilings adorned by hand-hewn Douglas Fir wood beams, setting the stage for an elegant orchestration of design and warmth. A stone fireplace, reaching to the heavens, becomes the heart of the living room, flanked by windows that invite the beauty of the outdoors inside—a space perfectly suited for both relaxation and entertainment. Neutral tones and an intuitive floorplan create an immediate sense of comfort throughout the property, accentuated by timeless tiled flooring that seamlessly flow from the main level to the patios and terrace.
The tangible charm of improvements is encircled by native flora and fauna, Texas Walnut, Cherry, Redbud, and Spanish Oak trees on slightly slopping acreage that facilitates uninterrupted long-range views.

Masterful Design Breathing the Outside In:
The gourmet kitchen is a culinary haven, offering breathtaking views, a delightful coffee bar, a granite island with seating for five, double ovens, and induction cooking. A Dutch door to the utility room adds a touch of charm, enhancing the overall aesthetic.

The primary suite, conveniently located on the main floor, beckons as a true retreat with a pitched ceiling, a seating area overlooking serene views, and outdoor access to a spacious porch and a spa-like bathroom featuring a soaker tub with views of the surrounding landscape.

Upstairs, discover warm wood floors, custom shelving, a loft area leading to two secondary suites- one of which features a breathtaking covered patio, perfect for catching dramatic sunrises and sunsets.

Outdoors, a covered patio and terrace provide idyllic spaces for grilling and gatherings, allowing residents to bask in the majesty of the Hill Country.

Preserve at Walnut Springs: Nature’s Canvas of Luxury Living
Immersed within the gated ranch community of The Preserve at Walnut Springs, this property transcends the concept of mere residence, offering an exclusive lifestyle. The panoramic views, three miles of creek frontage, stocked ponds, natural springs, and extensive trails for horseback riding and hiking transform this community into a haven for those seeking tranquility. Premier amenities, including swimming pools, tennis courts, a putting green, a classic Hill Country style clubhouse, an equestrian center, and a covered riding arena, complement the luxury ranch living experience.
With only 66 homesites spread across 2000 acres, this is an unparalleled opportunity to embrace ranch living with minimal maintenance and easy access to the cultural hubs of Austin and San Antonio. Revel in the ag-exemption, escape city taxes, and savor a lifestyle enriched by ranch horses, fishing, kayaking, swimming, and the gentle Hill Country breeze in the hammock grove. The Preserve at Walnut Springs seamlessly integrates luxury and nature, providing an extraordinary community where every moment feels like a celebration of life’s finest offerings.

Andi Anders

BIO

Andi is as soft-spoken and empathetic as they come. But don’t let that disarm you, she loves people and loves Hill Country land with extreme passion and devotion. She’s an absolute go-getter in the community and proudly sports a lifetime membership to the Blanco 9-Pin Bowling Club. The line between her work and her life is blurry, not in a big city way, but just because when you are helping people move to your hometown, they soon become friends. She loves that moment when people find “The One”, that new home or piece of property they’ve been so eager to find, and watching the story move from one person to the next. She feels honored to be a part of enriching her clients’ life stories. Andi is a Certified Mediator (no surprise once you meet her) and a Farm & Ranch Specialist (which is a bit more surprising). She is a champ at helping families and empty-nesters relocate to the slow pace of the Texas Hill Country. You’d laugh if you ever pulled up next to her in the truck, there’s an 80% chance she’s throwing the concert of a lifetime and singing at the top of her lungs or having a serious discourse with her German Shepherd, who seems to understand everything she says.
