Authentic 1826sf modern farmhouse plus approx 500sf guest cabin--featured in Design Within Reach and Magnolia--with small barn, cowboy pool, and 5 goats, is situated on nearly 4 acres on a cul-de-sac in one of the prettiest areas of Hays County. It all feels far away but is only 20 minutes, one stop sign, and two red lights from downtown or the Austin airport. This custom designed home by Pavonetti Architecture offers designer and antique fixtures and lighting throughout. Oversized steel windows and vaulted ceilings fill the home with light and varying views of the property. Living area has a floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace with a built-in nook for firewood. The kitchen features a marble island cooktop and a stunning 1922 cast iron double drainboard farm sink with unlacquered brass faucet. A wide hallway with built-in shelves leads to three bedrooms and laundry room. At the end of the hallway is the primary bedroom with a porch overlooking the pasture and outside shower. The spacious primary bathroom has double bucket sinks, soaker tub and open shower area. One of the two secondary bedrooms has a sleeping loft. Concrete floors throughout. Screen porch off dining area and a large covered patio off living room. Manicured pathways from the main home lead to a circa 1850's log cabin (with kitchen, full bath, fireplace, sleeping loft and two porches), a cowboy pool, a cozy area with large custom fire pit, and a quaint wooden barn (the site of many past dinner parties). A cute vintage Scotty trailer, tucked into the trees, can be used for an office. There are two separate pastures where the goats play, as well as a goat stable that could be modified for horses. The property is completely fenced and has an electric gated entry. Aquifer-fed 800-ft deep well equipped with sulfur filter and water softener, which means deeper, cleaner water and no water bills! If you’ve ever wanted to live the quiet country life close to the hum of the city, this modern farmhouse is for you.
