House Description

Tucked into the rolling terrain of Bandera's most scenic landscapes, this one-story artist retreat offers a rare blend of tranquility, craftsmanship, and direct access to nature. Located in the gated Hills of Bandera Ranch, just 10 miles southwest of downtown Bandera, the Cowboy Capital of the World, the property borders the Hill Country State Natural Area, granting private neighborhood access to miles of hiking, riding, and multi-use trails. It is a place designed for quiet living, creative inspiration, and restorative weekends. The home sits on 5.5 acres of native landscape with long-range vistas, artisan hardscape, and thoughtfully curated outdoor spaces. Handlaid flagstone patios cascade down waterfall stone steps. Two pergolas invite al fresco dining. A polished round stargazing bench encircles a wood-burning fire pit, perfectly positioned for dark-sky nights. Monarch butterflies and golden-cheeked warblers find sanctuary here, just as you will. A metal-fenced courtyard, drip-irrigated beds, rain chains, and a metal roof complete the exterior, supported by a new well pump and propane system (2024), carport/loafing barn, shed, and well room. Craftsmanship at every turn, the home blends modern comfort with artisan detail. A custom metal entry door opens to flagstone and marble, a built-in bench, and a crank window overlooking the butterfly garden. Rounded walls, specialized textures, Visual Comfort lighting, and custom cabinetry with soft-close function create a refined, cohesive aesthetic. The chef's kitchen features a full JennAir appliance suite, quartzite counters, a large island, handmade Arto tile backsplash, RO filtration system, and cabinetry designed for true function: pullout spice racks, utensil drawers, cutting board storage, hidden china cabinets, and a walk-in pantry with oversized doors. The living room centers around a large gas fireplace framed in handmade Arto tiles, flanked by cedar posts and expansive metal and glass windows that capture the surrounding landscape. The main primary suite is a serene retreat with oversized windows and motorized transoms. The spa-inspired bath features a 66' cast-iron snailfoot tub, open shower with Graff system, quartzite counters, alabaster sconces, antique privacy doors, and a built-in personal safe. The secondary primary suite is a beautifully curated second suite with native flagstone floors, antique lead glass windows, reclaimed wood shelving, hand-troweled stucco, and antique double doors from Mexico. A Pella window seat and private patio door complete the space. The guest bath offers chevron marble floors, artisan mirrors, Kohler fixtures, and a built-in safe. The gated community of the Hills of Bandera Ranch offers: three stocked fishing ponds, walking and riding trails, equestrian-friendly design, private entrance to the Hill Country State Natural Area. This is a rare Hill Country escape. Quiet. Peaceful. Immersed in nature. Crafted with intention, this property is more than a home - it is a retreat for the senses and a sanctuary for the soul.
