About This Home
Discover your own slice of Hill Country paradise in this stunning old-style craftsman's dream home. It is a ca.1938, 4 sides stone cottage nestled on nearly 5 acres of wooded land in Bandera, Texas. This one-of-a-kind property offers peaceful privacy, old time workmanship and timeless character. Enjoy the rare easy walkable access directly down to the Medina River just past a private county easement (that is only accessible to the subdivision river homes). Please see the home and property's video attached to this sight! Step inside to soaring solid wood-beamed ceilings, hand-hewn pine floors, and natural stone walls that exude rustic elegance. This great room is anchored by a grand fireplace and opens to a cozy loft above creating a warm, lodge-like ambiance. The vintage kitchen adds personality with its farmhouse sink, tile countertops, and open shelving. Enjoy hot afternoons on the expansive covered screened-in porch and evenings gathered around the outdoor stone patio and fire pit. The oversized primary bedroom features more of the rich wood flooring, ceiling beams and views of the landscape out of the many windows. Find the updated bathroom that includes an oversized walk-in tile shower, pedestal sink and lots of natural light. The spacious dining room off the kitchen can be used as the second bedroom, but currently, the sellers use the loft above the great room for their guests. In 2017 the well pump and its piping was replaced, HVAC was replaced and the septic pumped out. Outdoors, the property is studded with magnificent accent cypress and mature oak trees, native foliage, with an abundance of birds and wildlife. It is ideal for peaceful living, weekend retreats, and/or creative income potential. Whether you're looking to homestead, escape the city with a second home and/or purchase a short-term or long-term investment property. This home is brimming with rustic elegance, acres of nature with river adventures to be had, as well as, income opportunity.
