About this home
MOVE IN READY! Welcome to 397 Secret Way, an exquisite Hill Country lake view retreat tucked inside the serene landscapes of Spring Branch, TX. Located just minutes from Rebecca Creek Elementary and boat ramp 23; this thoughtfully crafted, custom home offers 2,534 square feet of living space, showcasing a unique design that gracefully wraps around a private central courtyard complete with waterfall hot tub, goldfish pond, and shade from a stately magnolia and graceful cedar elm. Access your own little slice of zen from anywhere in the home! Perfect for morning coffee, quiet moments, or entertaining under the stars. Step through the entry and be greeted by a gourmet kitchen featuring rustic stone finishes, natural wood cabinetry, and a spacious living room anchored by a stunning stone fireplace. Continuing on you will find the oversized game room featuring expansive windows overlooking the flawless Canyon Lake views as well as 2 additional rooms joined by a Jack and Jill bathroom. The primary suite is a true sanctuary with an attached office, a private flex room ideal as a nursery, home gym, or meditation space, and spa-like bath featuring a jetted soaking tub, dual vanities, and a dual-entry walk-in shower. His and hers closets with built in storage. Every space is infused with warm, organic textures and natural light. Step outside to discover a massive covered patio and outdoor living area that spills onto beautifully landscaped grounds, native stone paths, and unobstructed views of Canyon Lake and the Texas Hill Country beyond. This is more than a home. It's a peaceful retreat, perfectly positioned for both privacy and access to nature, recreation, and wine country.
Mystic Shores, located between Canyon Lake and the Guadalupe River, is a hill-country and lakeside Canyon Lake neighborhood with limestone bluffs and big-sky views. The mood concentrates around the Mystic Shores POA waterfront park and boat ramp, where kayaks, fishing lines, and sunset watchers set the pace. Homes lean Texas Hill Country—stone accents, metal roofs, deep porches, and long driveways that follow the terrain. The landscape reads as cedar, oak, and rocky outcrops, with winding roads that open to water glimpses. Nearby, the Whitewater Amphitheater and the Historic Gruene Hall anchor live-music nights, while The Gristmill River Restaurant & Bar keeps the riverfront table scene classic. Days often revolve around lake time, trail walks, and quiet stargazing after dark.
