Description

This incredible 14-acre hill country retreat combines modern updates with charm and rustic architecture to create a truly unique property in the highly sought after Boerne, Texas. Located in the Friendly Hills subdivision (NO HOA, limited deed restrictions) and just minutes away from downtown Boerne and Boerne High School, this home is a perfect blend of tranquility and elegance. The home comes in at 3329 SF and features 4 bedrooms with 4 full bathrooms. The original home was built in 1952, and it was masterfully expanded and renovated to its current state. The interior features Italian tile, cypress wood flooring, and a custom double-sided fireplace that is guaranteed to catch your eye. One side of the fireplace features a custom mesquite mantle, and the other side is highlighted by limestone encased with fossils. The pantry door comes off a historic hotel from downtown San Antonio and the cabinets throughout the house were designed and built by sought-after craftsman David Pipes using recovered long-leaf pine. The master suite is split for privacy and features an office, oversized walk-in closet, and a beautiful bedroom with outside access. Once upstairs, you will find two bedrooms, one with its own bath, and a freestanding loft with quick access to a separate bathroom. If you can't decide if you want to spend time outdoors or indoors, that's okay because the home has a 12x32 screened-in porch that overlooks the pool and backyard and can be converted to a greenhouse during cold months. The entire home has brand new Andersen windows and doors to enhance the home's elegance and energy efficiency. The home's energy efficiency is further enhanced with solar panels, tankless water heaters, and a Kinetico water softener. Step out from the living area onto the oversized back porch and you will be greeted with an incredible view overlooking your pool. The pool was recently built and overlooks the back side of the 14-acre property and down into a canyon that creates memorable sunrises and sunsets. Enjoy the pool year-round as it has an oversized heater to set the perfect temperature regardless of cold outdoor temperatures. The lot itself features a tank, a wildflower garden at the front of the home, tons of oaks, and is teeming with wildlife (axis, whitetail, and turkey). The property is fully owned and has never been on the market, making this a truly unique opportunity to own a special piece of the Texas Hill Country. The location of this property cannot be overstated. The property is 5 minutes from Boerne High School, 8 minutes from downtown Boerne, and 12 minutes from H-E-B.
