About This Home
As of May 2022STUNNING upgraded home on 1.13 acres in Rim Rock offers everything you’ve dreamed of for your luxurious, private oasis! With a backyard that boasts a resort-style pool, and a home with a modern kitchen, a generous primary suite, a study, and a mother-in-law suite – this is the home that will meet all the needs of your family. Enter this hilltop estate on the long driveway, taking your pick of three garage bays. Before you step inside, take a moment to listen to the quiet countryside and take in the sweeping hill country views. This spectacular home is designed to allow natural sunlight to flood the open concept interior. Notice how the soaring 14' ceilings and the flooring (mostly large tiling, with wood in the dining room and study, and plush carpet in some bedrooms) make the home feel comfortable yet luxurious. Imagine the holidays as you gather your friends and family and entertain at the large kitchen island that overlooks the living room and cozy fireplace that’s flanked by built-in bookcases. Relax in your spacious primary bedroom that looks out onto the sparkling pool and has ample space for its own seating area. Retreat to your spa-like bathroom that includes double vanities, an enormous mud-set shower, a garden tub, and a walk-in closet. This private oasis, complete with an extended, covered patio next to the pool for exceptional backyard living, is a must-see!
Topping it off, you're in highly rated DSISD with low tax rates, the conveniences of nearby Austin with its restaurants, breweries, wineries, and cultural attractions - all while enjoying the quiet, dark skies of the Texas Hill Country.
