Sitting on one of the highest hilltops in Austin County, this turnkey property captures panoramic views that stretch for miles. Located on scenic Lynn Road near Kenney—home to some of the most beautiful ranches in the region—it’s just over an hour from Houston yet feels like a secluded retreat. The thoughtfully renovated home, originally designed by architect Ray Bailey, is nestled among hardwoods and pines and overlooks a stunning 4-acre stocked lake. The sunsets off the backporch are everything you imagine and more. Recent additions include a 2-bedroom guest casita, carport, and pool, making it ideal for entertaining or relaxing. A private, winding driveway leads through the woods to this peaceful hilltop sanctuary, where starry skies, native wildlife, and serene surroundings complete the setting.
