A rare combination of acreage, privacy and amenities in Dripping Springs, this gated 5 acre property offers the Hill Country lifestyle buyers are looking for with a pool, views, fully fenced grounds and exceptional flexibility.
Set within gated Settlers Point, the modern farmhouse sits privately among mature trees with a welcoming oversized front porch and a setting that feels peaceful and removed while remaining convenient to Dripping Springs.

A two stall barn adds even more flexibility for equestrian use, storage, a workshop or hobbies.
For buyers wanting additional space in the future, the property also offers the opportunity for an additional dwelling, subject to applicable approvals and requirements, creating potential for a guest house, multigenerational living, studio or private office.
A three car garage, whole home generator, solar and private well add to the property's functionality.
Five acres. Gated. Pool. Views. Privacy. And the flexibility to make the property your own. An increasingly hard to find combination in Dripping Springs.
Five acres of private Hill Country landscape with a custom-built 2018 home designed for both entertaining and self-sufficiency sits at 1051 Trailhead Circle in Settlers Point, Dripping Springs 78620. The property commands immediate presence with a wrap-around front porch and private gated entrance that signal arrival, while the 3,872-square-foot residence anchors 5.01 fully fenced acres zoned for equestrian use within this gated community.
The interior architecture maximizes impact through ceiling-high spaces that draw the eye upward, stone counters paired with a substantial kitchen island, and floor-to-ceiling finishes across carpet, tile, and wood surfaces. The kitchen represents functional luxury with premium KitchenAid Energy Star appliances including an induction cooktop, built-in microwave, 36-inch refrigerator, and oversized pantry. Four bedrooms and three full baths plus one half bath distribute across the floor plan with flexible living areas designed for both daily function and formal entertaining. A three-car garage provides covered vehicle and equipment storage.
The outdoor living experience elevates the property beyond typical residential. A recently updated private pool anchors the backyard entertainment space, while wrap-around patios extend living areas into the landscape. A waterfall feature creates ambient focal points across the manicured grounds, complemented by native plantings and medium-sized trees that frame Hill Country views. The property includes pre-installed equestrian infrastructure: stable, corral, and paddock areas already developed on the acreage.
Infrastructure here reflects serious planning. Twenty-five Panasonic solar panels with a whole-house Generac generator provide energy resilience and efficiency. A private well, water softener system, propane tank, full gutters, and recent chip-and-seal driveway upgrade ensure reliable systems. The standing seam metal roof paired with stone and HardiPlank exterior siding prioritizes durability across Hill Country weather cycles.
The location places residents in Dripping Springs ISD, with Walnut Springs Elementary, Dripping Springs Middle School, and Dripping Springs High School serving the area. The gated Settlers Point community structure provides security while HOA approval for an additional dwelling creates future expansion flexibility for guest quarters, casita space, or multigenerational living arrangements.
At $1.75 million ($452 per square foot), the property merges luxury finishes with functional acreage and energy systems rarely found at this price point in the Dripping Springs market. Nine days on market reflects the scarcity of this specific combination.
