Your Private Texas Hill Country Retreat Awaits! Tucked away on 6.5 unrestricted acres of lush, tree-filled land in Driftwood, this 2,100+ sq. ft. hideaway is more than just a home—it’s a sanctuary of rustic charm, natural beauty, and endless possibilities. Step inside to warm, inviting interiors, where exposed wood beams, stone accents, and an open floor plan create a seamless connection between indoor comfort and the breathtaking outdoors. Expansive windows frame stunning Hill Country views, bringing the beauty of nature right into your living space. With ample land and no restrictions, the opportunities here are as vast as the Texas sky. Imagine building a guesthouse, a workshop, or even a second home—your vision can truly take shape. Plus, the potential to secure an AG exemption means you can save thousands in property taxes each year—a smart investment with lasting rewards. This property has also been successfully operating as both a long-term rental and a short-term rental, offering flexible income potential for savvy investors or those looking to offset ownership costs. Outside, enjoy sprawling outdoor spaces perfect for morning coffee under the oaks, sunset gatherings with friends, or simply soaking in the tranquility of your private retreat. And while the setting feels wonderfully secluded, you’re just minutes from local wineries, world-class golf at Driftwood Golf & Ranch Club, and only 17 miles from Austin International Airport. Whether you’re searching for a weekend escape, a forever home, or a rare investment opportunity, this Driftwood gem offers the perfect blend of Hill Country charm, modern convenience, and future potential—all in an unbeatable location.
