About this property

A truly one of a kind gem from award winning Austin architects, Jackson & McElhaney, this 47+ acre property is perched on a canyon rim, just 4 miles south of Wimberley to deliver the most sweeping and dramatic views in the Hill Country. A 270 degree vista is echoed by rows of glass so that the view follows residents as they walk through the house. Included are numerous iconic features such as a 25 ft sloping ceiling in the great room which presents a loft perfect for an office. Use of limestone collected from the property, both as exterior walls and inside. A wood burning fireplace and sauna are delights during wintertime and a 40 ft swimming pool does the same in the summer. 3 car garage with glass roll up door affords enough extra room for a workshop. 400 sq ft workshop on the property. Agricultural exemption keeps the taxes low.
