Million-dollar views without the million-dollar price tag. Deep in the heart of the Texas Hill Country is your little slice of heaven with views of rolling hills and green pastures. Imagine ending your day with a cold drink, staring out into the wide-open hill country right from your own back porch. Step into the light-filled interior where dark hardwood floors, soaring ceilings, and an effortless open layout invite you to breathe deep and slow down. The living room is built for real life—gather around the wood-burning fireplace on cool Hill Country evenings, kick back under the ceiling fan on lazy afternoons, and let natural light pour through the French doors that open straight to the outdoors. The kitchen is a showstopper. Bright white cabinetry, gleaming granite countertops, a mosaic tile backsplash, and a full suite of stainless steel appliances make this a space where cooking actually feels like a pleasure. The generous island with a farmhouse-style sink keeps the cook connected to the action, and the breakfast nook just beyond, framed by wide windows overlooking the backyard, is the kind of spot where mornings stretch a little longer. The primary suite is your private retreat. Rich espresso cabinetry anchors a double-vanity bath with granite countertops and a deep soaking tub — the perfect place to unwind after a long day. But the real magic? Step out onto that back deck, settle into a rocking chair, and let the Texas Hill Country do what it does best. The backyard is a true sanctuary — mature, twisting live oaks cast dappled shade across the lush lawn, and everywhere you look, the land opens up into those breathtaking views of rolling hills and wide-open pastures that stretch as far as the eye can see. And if you elect to join the voluntary POA, the community swimming lake is a short walk from the home. Highly acclaimed Lake Travis ISD schools. Low 1.624% property taxes.
