14909 Fitzhugh RD Unit #B, Austin, TX 78736

From the moment you arrive, 425 feet of crystal-clear Barton Creek sets the tone: beautiful pecan trees arch overhead, native grasses sway along the banks, and the sounds of wildlife replace the noise of the city. Tucked into the heart of the Fitzhugh Corridor, this extraordinary 12.68-acre retreat offers a lifestyle that is increasingly rare — seclusion, natural beauty, and effortless access to Austin, Bee Cave, and Dripping Springs. The beautifully remodeled stone home (3 beds, 3.5 baths, 2 living, 1 dining) — completed in 2017 and crowned with a classic metal roof — blends timeless Texas character with modern comfort. Heatilator fireplace bring a rare vintage charm you simply cannot replicate, and the kitchen windows frame sweeping views of Barton Creek. It is the kind of home where every room feels connected to the land. Built in 2016, the separate guesthouse is a proven income producer (1 bed, 1 bath, 1 living & full kitchen) — already active on VRBO and Airbnb — offering flexibility for hosting family, generating rental revenue, home office or all of the above. A limestone fire pit, a maturing peach tree (with two young companions), and glimpses of foxes, wild turkeys, and songbirds complete the picture of this truly special property. The acreage has room to add horses, a barn, and a private arena — everything you need to build a personal equestrian setup minutes from Austin. A wildlife exemption keeps taxes remarkably low, and the land's natural topography and mature canopy ensure complete privacy year-round. The creek keeps the land alive. Beautiful additional build location on the highest elevation of the property giving way to amazing Hill Country views. Whether you are seeking a full-time sanctuary, a weekend escape, or an investment opportunity with character, this property delivers on every count. **Square footage to be verified by buyer.**

Twelve and a half acres of Hill Country land unfolds across 14909 Fitzhugh Road in Austin's Dripping Springs area, anchored by 425 feet of frontage on Barton Creek - the kind of water access that defines what makes this region different. The property sits in Austin, deep enough into the landscape that the ambient sound shifts from traffic to wildlife, yet close enough to reach downtown Austin in under 40 minutes and Bee Cave in 15.

The land itself is the draw. Rolling topography with native grasses, mature pecan and oak canopy, rock outcroppings, and a natural tree line along the creek create genuine seclusion while preserving sweeping Hill Country views from the highest elevation. The wildlife exemption keeps property taxes low - a real advantage on acreage this size. Deer, wild turkeys, and foxes move through regularly. The creek corridor feels untouched, but you're still accessing Dripping Springs ISD schools, with Dripping Springs Elementary, Dripping Springs Middle, and Dripping Springs High all serving the area.

The house itself - built in 1974, substantially remodeled, with a metal roof and stone construction - works as shelter within this vast setting rather than dominating it. Three bedrooms, three full baths, one half bath across 3,400 square feet. The kitchen features quartz counters, a gas cooktop, island, and windows framing Barton Creek views. Multiple living areas, recessed lighting, walk-in closets, a soaking tub, and a primary bedroom on the main floor handle the functional requirements. Covered porches on front and rear extend living outward toward the land.

The separate one-bedroom guesthouse adds flexibility - currently generating rental income through VRBO and Airbnb, or it functions as a home office, guest quarters, or family compound space. A limestone fire pit, mature peach trees, and landscaping complete the outdoor living picture.

The property trades at $791 per square foot on the main residence, positioning it within reach for buyers seeking Hill Country acreage with creek frontage and genuine privacy. Days on market reflects the scarcity of land-forward properties in this pocket of the Austin metro. Whether this becomes a full-time sanctuary, weekend retreat, or diversified investment, the 12.682 acres and Barton Creek frontage anchor everything - the land first, the house second, the lifestyle the logical consequence.
