Welcome to your own peaceful retreat in the heart of the Dripping Springs community. Nestled on 1.26 picturesque acres in the beloved Springlake neighborhood, this charming property offers the rare combination of rural tranquility and everyday convenience. Majestic clusters of mature oak trees adorned with enchanting solar-powered twinkle lights create a magical setting, while a rocked pathway leads to an open field and fire pit where evenings are spent beneath the breathtaking Texas night sky. Inside, soaring ceilings in the living room, kitchen, and dining areas create an open, airy feel that lives much larger than the home’s footprint. The kitchen features beautiful hickory cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and abundant workspace. Fresh interior paint, tile flooring throughout, and a brand-new roof installed this month provide peace of mind, while the stainless steel refrigerator, washer, and dryer all convey. The thoughtfully designed floor plan offers three bedrooms and two full bathrooms. The spacious primary suite features a large walk-in closet and private exterior access to the backyard, creating a seamless connection to the peaceful outdoor living spaces. Springlake is one of Dripping Springs’ most cherished established neighborhoods, with no HOA and minimal deed restrictions, you’ll enjoy the freedom to store your RV, boat, or trailer, raise chickens, and truly make the property your own. A heavy-duty grid-welded steel fence with a walking gate and double-wide access gate adds privacy and functionality. Located in exemplary Dripping Springs ISD, this special property is just minutes from downtown Dripping Springs and approximately 35 minutes from both Downtown Austin and Austin-Bergstrom International Airport. Here, you’ll discover the peacefulness, privacy, and dark night skies that make Hill Country living so unforgettable.
