Set on 1.72 private, usable acres, the approach is marked by a stone walkway, fountain, and covered front porch. Inside, walls of windows bring in abundant natural light. The chef’s kitchen is tailored for real living, with light cabinetry, honed marble countertops, a farmhouse sink, wine refrigerator, and a commercial-grade 6-burner gas range with griddle and double ovens. A limestone fireplace anchors the family room, while the owner’s retreat adds a spa-like bath with a floor-to-ceiling tiled shower, freestanding soaking tub, dual vanities, and an oversized walk-in closet, plus an adjoining “Zen Den.” Outdoors, a quartz-plaster pool with splash pad sits alongside native landscaping, raised garden, rainwater collection, and a wet-weather creek.

Within an exclusive gated enclave in San Antonio, this Colonial Revival estate feels grand in character and quietly refined. A soaring foyer sets the tone with custom millwork, arched openings, wood flooring, and plantation shutters—details that carry throughout the home’s gracious formal spaces. Entertaining centers on a gourmet kitchen finished with custom cabinetry, an oversized island, and Sub-Zero and Miele appliances. For work or guests, a dedicated study is paired with a full bath, offering flexibility without sacrificing privacy. The primary suite is its own retreat, featuring a see-through fireplace, patio access, dual closets, and a spa-inspired bath. Outdoors, a resort-style backyard unfolds across over half an acre with a pool, spa, waterfalls, flagstone walkways, mature landscaping, and more than 30 mature trees—an everyday escape designed for lingering evenings.

Indoors, new Andersen and Pella windows draw in abundant natural light across warm hardwood and tile floors on the main level, complemented by a newly added wood staircase. The refreshed kitchen pairs white painted cabinetry with a center island and new dishwasher and refrigerator, opening to the family room. The main-level primary suite includes an updated spa-style bath and custom closet, plus a dedicated study and no carpet throughout the first floor.

Set on the rolling terrain of Rabbs Creek Ranch in Giddings, this expansive property pairs open pastures with wooded privacy for a true country retreat. Rabbs Creek traces 1,800 feet through the land, creating a natural focal point alongside two scenic ponds and long, quiet sightlines. A well-maintained home anchors the setting, with utilities already in place to support weekends away, a hobby ranch lifestyle, or a future homesite. The mix of water features and varied landscape also lends itself to use as a hunting property, offering space to roam and reset at your own pace. Convenience remains part of the appeal, with Austin about an hour away and Houston and San Antonio roughly two hours from the gate, making escapes to the ranch feel comfortably within reach.
