Across Texas, this quintet of desirable homes traces a lifestyle map from Hill Country calm to coastal ease. In Blanco, an unrestricted 15-acre homestead supports everything from a working farm to event or short-term rental potential, while Driftwood offers refined privacy on 1.5 acres in Rim Rock. New Braunfels brings modern farmhouse architecture with Lowcountry influence, and Rockport adds a well-kept four-unit property minutes from the beach. In Austin’s Circle C Ranch, a cul-de-sac setting under mature oaks rounds out the collection.

Set on 15 unrestricted acres in Blanco, this gated homestead balances deep privacy with a fairly short ride to town. The main residence is described as a charming cottage farmhouse, joined by a thoughtful collection of outbuildings that shape daily life around work, creativity, and rest: a stone cottage suitable as a guest house or rental, a detached studio with a vaulted ceiling, and a large pole barn featuring a new concrete slab plus power and water. Stone porches, patios, and walkways extend the living spaces outdoors, while an organic garden with 12+ raised beds and 12+ fruit trees (peaches galore) brings the landscape to the table. Big oaks, a heritage rock cistern, and a windmill-powered well underscore the property’s working-ranch character, with barn and cross fencing for livestock and a fenced chicken run with coop.

Set in New Braunfels, this modern farmhouse blends Southern Coastal and Lowcountry design with a symmetrical front façade and a central entry that opens to a welcoming foyer.

Plantation shutters throughout, along with Hunter Douglas electric shades, provide privacy and easy light control. The owners retreat includes an ensuite bath with a double vanity, walk-in shower, and an expansive walk-in closet thoughtfully divided into two sections. On the main level, a sliding glass door extends daily living to a large covered deck, with a full bedroom and bathroom down and a utility room between the home and garage for streamlined routines. Life here feels contemporary, grounded in New Braunfels’ vibrant culture and history.
