Set on 7 beautiful acres in Dripping Springs, this property is all about the land, lifestyle and opportunity. At the heart of it is a charming original farmhouse with a comfortable, efficient footprint, natural light and the warmth and character of a true Hill Country home.

Fully fenced with an automatic gated entry, the 7 acres offer plenty of room for horses, goats, chickens, gardens and more. Limited restrictions provide flexibility for someone who wants to enjoy the property as it is, expand the existing home or create something more over time.

An attached two car garage plus a separate third car garage provide additional space for vehicles, equipment, a workshop or weekend projects.

With 7 usable acres, an existing farmhouse, established gardens, room for animals, privacy and flexibility, this property offers the opportunity to create your own version of Hill Country living in an incredible Dripping Springs location with convenient access to town and Austin.

At 290 Sunset Ridge in Dripping Springs, 7.4 acres of fenced Hill Country land define what serious acreage ownership looks like in the Dripping Springs area. The 1994 German farmhouse sits at $1.10M ($459 per square foot) and functions as the centerpiece of a property designed around one core principle: maximum usability without sacrificing privacy.

The home itself spans 2,395 square feet across four bedrooms, two full baths, and one half bath. Wood siding and crown molding frame the interior, while expansive front and back porches create genuine outdoor living space rather than decorative add-ons. The kitchen features an island and full appliance package. Tile, vinyl, and wood flooring run throughout. Three ceiling fans and whole-home lighting keep the interior comfortable year-round. A 3-car garage provides storage, with a detached workshop structure offering expansion potential.

What separates this property from typical Hill Country residential listings is the infrastructure for actual land use. Automatic irrigation feeds established garden beds, fruit trees, berry patches, and herb gardens across the 7-acre footprint. A chicken coop sits within fenced areas. The property draws from a deep water well with approximately 5,000 gallons of water storage and whole-house reverse osmosis filtration. Multiple water access points throughout the acreage make livestock, horses, or large-scale gardening genuinely practical.

Recent improvements include fresh exterior paint, new gutters, new driveway, new garage doors and openers, and an automated entry gate with solar and battery backup. A lean-to shed provides covered storage. The cul-de-sac lot position and mature live oak canopy create sight lines toward Hill Country views and spectacular sunsets from the porches.

Location anchors everything. Dripping Springs ISD schools serve the property, with Dripping Springs Elementary, Dripping Springs Middle, and Dripping Springs High just minutes away. The subdivision sits minutes from downtown Dripping Springs and Bee Cave, positioning buyers near both the Dripping Springs Market and Bee Cave dining without sacrificing the rural setting. Texas Hill Country geography keeps the property within striking distance of Austin while maintaining complete separation from the urban core.

This property appeals to buyers seeking acreage with infrastructure already in place. Whether used as a full-time residence, weekend retreat, or expansion platform, the land and systems are ready for whatever comes next in Hill Country living.
