At 13 Carriage House Lane in Austin, you're buying 1.94 acres of working Hill Country land where a private pond anchors the property and mature oaks over 40 feet tall frame the approach. This is one of the rare Austin lots zoned to allow horses, a detail that matters if you've ever considered an equestrian lifestyle without leaving the Austin metro.

The 5-bedroom, 5-bathroom home sits at $1.20M, or $318 per square foot across 3,775 square feet. Built in 2002 with masonry construction and cement siding, the structure holds its bones well. Inside, the design centers on connection between spaces. Vaulted ceilings in the main living area rise above a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace. Expansive windows frame views of the property rather than relying on exterior description to sell it. Wood flooring throughout the main level is warm without feeling dated. The kitchen anchors the home with granite counters, a central island, built-in JennAir and Viking appliances, and sight lines into both formal and casual dining areas. A walk-in closet serves the primary bedroom, which sits on the main floor with views toward the pond.

Multiple living zones give the home flexibility. An upstairs game room overlooks the main level. Crown molding and built-in features signal intentional detailing. The tile, carpet, and wood flooring blend across bathrooms and secondary bedrooms. A 3-car garage handles vehicles, and covered patios on front and rear porch areas extend the usable space into the landscape.

The land itself is the differentiator. Native plant landscaping, automatic sprinklers front and back, and level terrain create outdoor rooms. The pond is visible from multiple interior vantage points, adding movement and life to the property. The lot's privacy and size mean you're not looking at neighbors across a typical subdivision fence line.

Dripping Springs ISD schools serve the property, with Sycamore Springs Elementary and Middle, then Dripping Springs High School. The commute to downtown Austin runs roughly 40-45 minutes depending on traffic patterns, while major employers like Dell, Apple, and Tesla have varying drive times depending on which campus. Austin-Bergstrom International Airport is approximately 50 minutes away.

This property appeals to buyers who want rural character with proximity to Austin's job market and schools, plus the flexibility to pursue activities like horse boarding or simply owning land that feels managed rather than confined.
