Come experience the most incredible views in the Gateway to the Hill Country. 1018 Windmill Road sits perched at the top of one of Sunset Canyon's namesake canyons. This fully fenced property offers flat grassy space to play, terraced levels for gardens and relaxing, and room to spread out. There is a wet-weather creek at the bottom of the property, completed by a waterfall after the rain. The spacious ranch-style home offers a place for everything. The kitchen is the heart of the home with a full island for gatherings while cooking and a banquette to seat even more. Enjoy quiet time or a game on the big screen in the large living area centered by a wood-burning fireplace. The primary bedroom has a seating area flooded by natural light, with a private door out to the porch. The porches in this home connect the lovely living areas to the gorgeous outdoors. Sweet details abound- built-in bookcases, a built-in China cabinet in the dining room, updated appliances, updated fixtures, and more. The third bay of the garage is semi converted and a great place for an office, playroom, or work out space. This home is mostly self-sufficient, with on-site sewer, well water, and solar panels offsetting most of the energy consumption. Sunset Canyon offers a close-in location to Austin and the amenities of Belterra Village, while also enjoying the dark skies of Dripping Springs!
