About This Home

As of July 2023

Tucked away on 1.3 acres in a private corner of Ruby Ranch, this gorgeous one-of-a-kind custom home is the perfect getaway from city life. Built as an homage to the owner’s ancestral home in Durango, Mexico the house is designed around an open central courtyard. This wonderfully livable floorplan boasts 5 bedrooms and 3 1/2 baths in over 3400 square feet of living space. Sustainability is at the forefront as is evidenced by the Spanish tile roof, Saltillo tile floors, beamed and arched reclaimed brick ceilings, and ultra-energy efficient engineered brick and steel construction. The huge kitchen and dining area with with its colorful tile and stained glass is a great place for a festive gathering of family or friends. The spacious primary bedroom connects to the large primary bath featuring dual custom vanities, walk-in closet, huge walk-in shower, built-in deep soaking tub, and private patio. The back yard is built around year-round outdoor living. The home backs up to the Hill Country Conservancy and a tall game fence separates you from over 700 acres of protected wilderness. Enjoy your morning coffee in the privacy of the charming screened porch or under the covered patio next to the outdoor fireplace. The fenced 45 foot pool is a large enough to swim laps and a great place to relax with a drink under the canopy of native Texas oaks. This spectacular home is truly unique and a must see!
