Private Texas Hill Country retreat on 1.39 acres in Sunset Canyon with easy access to Highway 290, Austin, Dripping Springs, and ABIA in highly acclaimed Dripping Springs ISD. This single-story Craftsman home offers an ADA accessible no-step layout with 3 bedrooms plus a flexible fourth room and 3.5 baths, an open floorplan, high ceilings, and a cozy double-sided gas fireplace. The gourmet kitchen is designed for serious home cooks, featuring 30-inch-deep granite countertops, natural hickory cabinetry with 15-inch uppers, premium Bosch stainless steel appliances, a propane cooktop, convection oven, and an oversized walk-in pantry large enough to function as a catering prep space. Spa-style baths include heated floors, toe-kick night lighting, and a no-step shower for comfort and aging in place. The private back-porch setting with hot tub is ideal for unwinding under the stars, watching deer roam, hosting friends, or enjoying peaceful Hill Country mornings with coffee, creating a true indoor-outdoor living experience. Masonry-all-sides construction and a metal roof contribute to a low-maintenance lifestyle, giving you more time to relax and enjoy the surroundings. Crystal enthusiasts will appreciate that rose quartz, amethyst, citrine, lapis, and black tourmaline were placed in the foundation with the intention of protection and good fortune. Currently used as a short-term vacation rental, the home may be sold furnished with future bookings available, offering a potential turnkey income-producing opportunity for an investor or owner-occupant.
Sunset Canyon, located between Ranch Road 12 and Hamilton Pool Road, is a hill-country and acreage-style Dripping Springs neighborhood with limestone outcrops and winding, oak-lined roads. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the RR 12 corridor near the Dripping Springs Ranch Park entrance, where weekend traffic, trailhead energy, and small-town errands overlap. Homes lean toward custom builds and ranch-style properties set back from the road, with long driveways and dark-sky evenings. Daily rhythms track the terrain—creek crossings, low-water bridges, and big-sky views off the ridgelines. Community touchstones include Treaty Oak Distilling, Twisted X Brewing Company, and the Mercer Street Dance Hall in town. The setting feels rural while still tied to Dripping Springs’ café-and-market scene.
