About This Home
Located at 294 Hidden Creek Dr in Dripping Springs, this gorgeous custom 3,100 sq ft ranch-style home offers 4 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, and sits on approximately 17 acres in the Texas Hill Country. Positioned within a gated community with a small Ranch Owners HOA, the property offers exceptional privacy and functionality, along with a wildlife exemption currently in place for added tax benefits. Designed for both everyday living and entertaining, the open-concept layout seamlessly connects the fully remodeled kitchen, living area, bathrooms, and laundry room, creating a true turnkey, move-in ready experience. Step outside to enjoy expansive Hill Country sunsets and a private pool, perfect for relaxing or hosting gatherings under the wide Texas sky. Built with the horse and land enthusiast in mind, this property is fully equipped for equestrian use, featuring four horse stalls with run-outs, a tack room, wash station, automatic water feeders in the barn, multiple paddocks, a sand-based riding arena, and a dedicated pasture. The land also lends itself beautifully to goats, chickens, and a true ranch lifestyle within a horse-friendly community. The barn has been converted into a full-size gym, offering added versatility for work, wellness, or hobby use. The garage includes a bathroom and offers strong potential to be converted into a casita, adding even more flexibility for guests or additional living space. Enjoy peaceful Hill Country living while still being conveniently located just approximately 10 minutes from Downtown Dripping Springs, 13 minutes to HEB, 8 minutes to Pedernales Falls State Park, 10 minutes to Dripping Springs Ranch Park, and 45 minutes to Austin-Bergstrom International Airport. **Buyer and Buyer's Agent are responsible for conducting all due diligence and verifying all information, including but not limited to property condition, zoning, permits, taxes, and square footage.**
Three hundred acres of Hill Country privacy collapse into seventeen acres of pure possibility at 294 Hidden Creek Drive in Dripping Springs, where a 3,114-square-foot custom ranch commands its own world just beyond the gated entrance to Hidden Creek Phase 1. This is the kind of property that stops conversation the moment you turn down the private drive.
The main residence delivers immediate impact. Twenty-foot ceilings soar above an open-concept layout where the fully remodeled kitchen anchors the living spaces with granite counters, built-in appliances including a gas cooktop and double wall ovens, and recessed lighting that transforms the space from morning to evening. Crown molding traces every ceiling line. A dedicated study with built-in bookcases and wired-for-sound infrastructure handles work from home without compromise. The primary bedroom claims main-floor positioning with a walk-in closet. Wood and tile flooring flow across 3,114 square feet of HardiPlank and masonry construction that answers to Hill Country weather with authority.
But the real drama unfolds beyond the interior walls. The property pivots on equestrian infrastructure that separates casual country living from committed ranching. Four horse stalls with run-outs, a functional tack room, and automatic water feeders in the barn transform animal husbandry from labor into routine. A sand-based riding arena and multiple paddocks occupy the acreage. The barn itself has been converted into a full-size gym, converting livestock space into wellness infrastructure. The two-car garage includes a bathroom and carries conversion potential toward a guest casita, adding architectural flexibility without additional land consumption.
The Johnson City ISD schools serve the Dripping Springs 78620 area, with Lyndon B Johnson serving as the elementary, middle, and high school option. The property sits within the gated community structure with Ranch Owners HOA governance, trading some regulatory flexibility for the privacy that seventeen acres should deliver. Automatic sprinklers, medium-canopy trees, and the Texas Hill Country sunset view over your own land create the visual punctuation to what amounts to a complete rural lifestyle template.
This isn't real estate for someone testing ranch life. It's positioned for the buyer who already knows they want horses, acreage, and a home built to handle both the practical demands and the entertaining possibilities of serious Hill Country living.
