This stunning Hill Country home sits on 2.46 acres in Driftwood, offering private Onion Creek Ownership and sweeping views toward Wimberley. Situated at the end of a cul-de-sac in a small neighborhood, it borders a large private ranch for added privacy. A private gated entrance leads to a thoughtfully updated home with a new 2023 roof, fresh white interior paint, and refinished grey-navy cabinetry. Designer lighting enhances the main living areas, while large windows fill the single-level layout with natural light and scenic views. The foyer opens to a spacious great room with high ceilings, a wood-burning fireplace, and cedar-accented office beams in the office. The large kitchen has custom cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, a large island, and a pantry. The primary suite, set apart on one side of the home for privacy, features high tray ceilings, large windows, and an ensuite with double vanities, a soaking tub, a walk-in shower, and an oversized closet. The opposite wing includes three secondary bedrooms, three bathrooms, and a second living area ideal for a media room or playroom. A Jack-and-Jill bath has an exterior door leading to the pool for easy outdoor access. Designed for outdoor living, the back patio overlooks the horse paddock, while the heated pool and spa provide a fun place to splash under the string lights. Sunset views stretch across rolling hills, perfect for evening gatherings or stargazing in this dark sky community. Fully fenced and cross-fenced, the property includes space for two horses, a pole barn, and a chicken coop. Live oaks stretch across the horse paddock, with sunset views along the tree-lined cliffside. Conveniently located between Wimberley and Dripping Springs, the home offers country living with easy access to some of the Texas hill country's best shopping, dining, breweries and entertainment. Zoned for Dripping Springs ISD, including Dripping Springs Elementary in the fall.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
