Property Description
Nearly 4 private acres on the Pedernales River arm of Lake Travis, inside the gated equestrian community of Paleface Ranch in Spicewood, TX.

A stone patio, tiered deck, hot tub, and fire pit complete the exterior for year-round entertaining. A large metal-sided barn and storage facility adds working ranch utility. The long driveway winds through mature trees to a grand wooden entry archway. Paleface Ranch is served by Lake Travis ISD, approximately 15 minutes to Hill Country Galleria, and under an hour to downtown Austin via Highway 71. Harbors a diverse range of wildlife
