Set on 17.53 private acres with 680 feet of Onion Creek frontage, this extraordinary estate captures the rarest kind of Hill Country living: refined, deeply peaceful, and completely connected to the land. Designed as the personal residence of a visionary land developer, the home was created with an uncommon level of intention, from its protected creek views and swim/fish-quality water to the quiet infrastructure that makes the property feel effortless in everyday life.

A custom paver entry, soon-to-be asphalted driveway extending to Creek Road, and a gas propane lantern at the entrance set the tone before the home ever comes into view. The approach feels private and cinematic, framed by mature trees, open land, and a sense of arrival that is both understated and memorable.

Inside, the 4,419-square-foot residence blends European farmhouse character with modern design. Reclaimed beams sourced from a barn in Ohio, white oak floors, antique limestone, unlacquered brass, custom cabinetry, quartzite surfaces, and curated lighting give each space a quiet richness. The home feels collected rather than simply built, with details selected for texture, patina, and permanence.

The kitchen is warm, functional, and beautifully composed, anchored by a plaster vent hood, Thermador appliances, Perrin & Rowe and Phylrich fixtures, quartzite countertops, and custom white oak cabinetry with bone inlay detail. It opens naturally to the dining and living spaces, creating a home equally suited for everyday mornings, long dinners, and weekends filled with guests. The main living area is centered by a fireplace with cast iron detail, set beneath vaulted ceilings and reclaimed timber beams.

The primary suite showcases beautiful architectural details from the beamed ceilings to the abundance of natural light, and serene bath featuring heated farmhouse stone floors, dual vanities, quartzite surfaces, a soaking tub framed by the landscape, and refined brass fixtures. Every space feels intentionally connected to the outdoors, whether through long views, filtered light, or the quiet presence of the creek and trees beyond.

Outdoors, the property becomes a private resort. A heated pool, sauna, outdoor shower, gas fire pit, propane hookup at the outdoor kitchen, and pickleball court create a lifestyle that moves naturally from sunlit afternoons to firelit evenings under the Hill Country sky. Moonlighting throughout the trees is set on auto-timers, bringing the landscape to life at night with a soft, ambient glow.

The land itself is the defining luxury. The property offers 680 feet of Onion Creek frontage with a dam, swim/fish-quality water, and a creek stocked with big bass. Ownership extends across the creek to the top of the opposite cliff, protecting the views and creating an extraordinary sense of privacy. Deer and turkey are often seen in the yard daily, while the surrounding large-acreage tracts preserve the feeling of quiet, open space.

Designed for true country living without sacrificing comfort, the property includes a high-fenced garden, irrigated orchard with pears, apples, and peaches, a 48-zone irrigation system, underground electric, a private well, approximately 5,500 gallons of water storage, kitchen reverse osmosis filtration, whole-house water softening, and a buried 600-gallon propane tank. A thoughtful underground drainage system preserves the clean architectural eaves, allowing the exterior lines of the home to remain uninterrupted by traditional gutters. A custom-built smokehouse and old-school barn outbuilding further enhance the property’s character and utility.

Rarely does a home combine this level of architectural beauty, water, acreage, privacy, wildlife, and lifestyle infrastructure in such a complete way. This is more than a Hill Country estate, it’s a fully realized retreat, designed by someone who understands land, lives with intention, and created a property meant to be experienced in every season.
