Overview

Property Description

Discover the quintessential Hill Country lifestyle on this exceptional 3.4-acre Driftwood property, where wide-open spaces, dark night skies, and peaceful mornings create an ideal rural retreat just 25 minutes from Austin. Perfectly positioned between Dripping Springs, Wimberley, Kyle, and South Austin, this acreage offers seamless access to local farm-to-table dining, craft distilleries, and scenic recreation. Built in 2023, the main home features a light-filled open floor plan with high ceilings, durable concrete and carpet flooring, and expansive windows framing serene tree and Hill Country views. The chef's kitchen is appointed for entertaining with stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, a large center island, and a spacious apron sink. The layout offers three bedrooms and two full baths, and a private primary suite with double vanities, a soaking tub, separate shower, and dual walk-in closets. Designed for ultimate versatility, the property includes a fully converted 900-square-foot guest house/workshop with a private bedroom, living area, full kitchen, and full bath—ideal for multigenerational living, farm-stay guests, or a home business. Outdoors, the fully fenced acreage is shaded by mature oak trees and tailored for hobby farming and equestrian pursuits. Complete farm-ready infrastructure is in place, featuring an established chicken coop with automatic feeders and waterers, a secure dog run, a storage shed, an impressive stone wall, and a custom playscape. With ample room for livestock, a horse barn, a riding arena, or extensive organic gardens, the land provides endless possibilities. Practical amenities include dual independent septic systems (an aerobic system for the main home and gravity-fed for the guest house), reliable well water, and a private cul-de-sac setting. This is a rare opportunity to embrace self-sufficient, farm-friendly acreage living without sacrificing modern convenience.
