Property Description
Positioned along an exceptional stretch of the Pedernales River in the heart of the Texas Hill Country, this recently completed modern retreat offers the perfect blend of luxury, flexibility & waterfront living. Built in 2023, the property features a beautifully finished 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath main residence w/ an office, plus a separate 2-bedroom, 1-bath guest suite connected by a dogtrot-style breezeway. Ideal as a full-time home, private getaway, or income-producing short-term rental, the possibilities are endless. Inside the main residence, soaring vaulted ceilings & expansive windows frame unobstructed river views. The open-concept design centers around a gourmet kitchen featuring custom cabinetry, porcelain countertops, high-end lighting, an oversized island, & a stylish dry bar w/ wine fridge. The spacious primary suite includes a private office & ensuite bath, while two additional bedrooms provide comfortable accommodations. Across the breezeway, the detached guest suite offers the same craftsmanship & modern finishes with two bedrooms, one full bath, & a private entrance—perfect for guests, multigenerational living, or maximizing rental income. An expansive outdoor deck between the two living spaces captures sunset & river views. 149± ft of Pedernales River frontage offers kayaking, paddleboarding, fishing & a private dock. Consistent year-round water levels make this stretch of the river especially enjoyable for recreation. A riverside gravel gathering area & shared green space provide access to 600 ft of river frontage shared by only seven owners. Additional features include a 2-car garage, approximately 2,000 SF of enclosed sub-floor storage, energy-efficient systems, & a durable metal roof. Located minutes from Johnson City in a short-term rental-friendly community, this turnkey riverfront property offers a rare opportunity to own a pristine modern home with exceptional waterfront access & outstanding lifestyle or investment potential.
