Description
Hill Country Modern Ranch sited on Lone Man Creek on one of Wimberley's premier streets, Red Hawk Road. Designed by Lou Kimball, AIA, this limestone-and-wood house features large, bright spaces, BIG outdoor living areas (including a screened outdoor dining room), shiplap walls, great views front and back, and total seclusion. House is 2-2 + study, with attached 1-1 guest suite. Much of the interior features old-growth fir--salvaged from the demolition of an old Galveston warehouse--which provides beauty and warmth (this is some of the prettiest wood you will see). Screened sleeping cabin (with electricity) also on property, a favorite for kids (and adults) who enjoy glamping. A short trail leads to stone steps descending to Lone Man Creek (note: elevation certificate shows house well above 100-year flood plain). Property straddles the creek, with a high rock bluff on the southside, providing both privacy and beautiful reflected-sunset glow. Ownership of both sides of the creek ensures permanent privacy! 20,000-gallon rainwater collection system has been completely adequate for household needs since it was installed in 2008. This is a special house and a special property; really must be seen to be appreciated. All this AND: Wildlife Exemption! Keeps taxes low!
