Property Description
Tucked into a hillside along Driftwood's renowned wine and dining corridor, this 5.78-acre ag-exempt estate offers a rare fusion of Southwest-inspired design, eco-conscious infrastructure, and timeless Hill Country appeal.
The adobe-style home reflects craftsmanship and regional character throughout—from latilla ceilings sourced on-site and hand-laid Saltillo tile, to antique doors, stained glass accents, and traditional kiva fireplaces. Built with energy efficiency in mind, the home benefits from double-pane insulated windows and a dual water system, including a private well and 12,500-gallon rainwater cistern for long-term self-reliance.
Rooted in Texas history, the land belongs to the original William B. Travis League of Land and is stewarded under a certified Permaculture Master Plan. An active agricultural exemption has been maintained since 2012 through on-site beekeeping and honey production, while the restored savannah pastureland blends open grasslands and native woodlands for a balanced and biodiverse environment.
Outdoor features include a barn, corrals, garden areas, meditation trails, a playhouse, and a restored 1967 monitor trailer complete with a bathroom and heated soaking tub—ideal as a creative studio, guest suite, or tranquil hideaway.
Perfectly positioned across from popular local wineries and a short drive to both Austin and Fredericksburg, this property is a standout opportunity for those seeking heritage, sustainability, and peaceful living in a highly desirable Hill Country setting.
