The Texas Hill Country is generally regarded as the most beautiful landscape in Texas. The key to building an extraordinary Hill Country Estate is finding the right lot. So many homes fall short of achieving true greatness because they fail to truly capture what makes the Texas hill Country so spectacular. Oftentimes the homes are on horribly uneven lots that require a massive flight of stairs just to get in to the front door, or they are at the bottom of the hill and lack the views. This stunning home is built on a truly one-of-a-kind lot. The lot is at the very apex of one of the tallest hills in the prestigious community of Mountain Springs Ranch. What makes it so unique and special is the lot is extremely level for the very top of a hill! Usually, a home built on the top of a hill in the Texas Hill Country, has no usable lot. Here there is plenty of room for any size pool or a large pool house. The owner will convey architect drawn plans for a 1,072 sq ft pool house that was planned for but never built. There are no steps in the front or rear of the home. From the moment you drive up to this gorgeous home, you are greeted with 360 views of the Texas Hill Country. You can even see Canyon Lake 10 miles in the distance from the front of the property. The front of the home is beautifully landscaped with an abundance of native Hill Country landscaping. As soon as you open the front doors, you are dazzled with the breathtaking rear views of the surrounding countryside. Walking into the home for the first time isn't easily explained in words, it is best felt in the experience. This amazing experience is felt every time you come home. The family room has a grand 16' ceiling and a massive wall of tile along with 20' wide custom sliding doors that lead to a truly Texas Sized rear covered patio. There is a combo gas fireplace and waterfall feature centered on the rear patio. It is amazing to sit by the fire on cold winter days and enjoy the serenity of the Hill Country views and the lush sound of the waterfall. A common theme in new custom homes these days is tiny kitchens and small family rooms. This is the exact opposite. This home has a huge luxury, gourmet kitchen complete with all top of the line Thermador appliances. There is even a custom built-in Thermador espresso machine! The cabinets were custom made by Kent Moore Cabinets and just about every upgraded feature that was offered by the cabinet maker is included. The family room is truly Texas Sized. The rear of the home is all oversized windows that offer unobstructed views of the Texas Hill Country. If you have little ones, then they will be amazed by the built-in slide and loft in one of the front jack and jill bedrooms that has a soaring 16' ceiling. The loft and slide were designed to easily be removed if requested. The 4th bedroom ensuite is currently decorated and used as a media room. Every room has custom ceiling treatments. The custom details are too numerous to list. Pictures are truly worth a thousand words so thoroughly pour through them and enjoy the virtual tour, but seeing the home in person is a must. Location is very hard to nail down when looking for the perfect Texas Hill Country Home. Many communities are way off the beaten path and far from any convenience. This home is perfectly located between Bulverde/Spring Branch and New Braunfels. It is only 7 miles to the nearest grocery store, only 4 miles to restaurants, 3 miles to a gas/convenience store, 2 miles to Bulverde/Spring Branch EMS station #4, 4 miles to highly rated middle and high schools, 20 minutes to New Braunfels, 30 minutes to San Antonio, and just an hour away from Austin.
