Overview
Property Description
The best of both worlds: the peace and privacy of a luxury Hill Country estate with effortless access to Austin. Nestled in the heart of Dripping Springs, this exceptional horseman’s paradise spans 46 unrestricted acres and offers a rare blend of refined living, premier equestrian infrastructure, and breathtaking natural beauty. Designed with the equestrian lifestyle in mind, the land unfolds with sweeping wildflower meadows, varied elevations, and an established network of riding trails. Exceptional water features—including approximately 1,100 feet of Little Barton Creek frontage and three additional creeks—enhance both the landscape and its usability, creating an ideal setting for horses, recreation, and long-term land enjoyment. Spanning 3,800 square feet, the home offers two bedrooms, three full baths, one half bath, a dedicated office with custom built-ins, and two expansive living areas that seamlessly balance everyday comfort with elevated entertaining. A separate 1,200-square-foot guest house provides flexibility for guests, staff, or multigenerational living, complete with a bedroom, full bath, open-concept kitchen and living area, plus laundry. Outdoor living is curated for both relaxation and gathering, featuring a resort-style pool and spa, fire pit, and wood-fired pizza oven. A second guest casita, perfectly nestled on the property, offers the ideal space for a gym or wellness. Deep well w/ 11,250-gallon water reserve, and a newly installed 40,000-gallon rainwater collection system that filters the entire home & guests. Equestrian facilities are turnkey and thoughtfully executed, anchored by a four-stall barn, wash stall, office, and half bath. Riding arena and six cross-fenced pastures provide ideal conditions for training, turnout, and rotation. For non-equestrian buyers, the barn offers seamless conversion potential into a party barn, event space, or car collector’s garage—adding versatility to the estate’s already impressive offering.
