Welcome to 43 War Bonnet in Wimberley Springs — a thoughtfully constructed new build by River Hutchinson Homes, offering elevated craftsmanship, structural integrity, and refined Hill Country living. Designed by Blair Austin Studio, this 4-bedroom, 4 bathroom home with dedicated media room spans approximately 2,822 square feet of conditioned space with an additional covered rear porch and garage, creating over 3,700 square feet under roof with both functionality and architectural presence in mind.

Additional highlights include a Majestic 42” wood-burning outdoor fireplace, insulated garage, sound-insulated interior walls at key locations, and a layout designed for privacy and everyday livability. A rare opportunity to own a design-forward, high-performance home in one of Wimberley’s most sought-after communities.

The real draw at 43 War Bonnet isn't what's inside the house - it's what happens outside it. This 2024 new construction in Wimberley Springs Sec 1 sits on a 0.359-acre lot where the covered rear porch with accordion folding doors becomes the unofficial gathering spot for the neighborhood. River Hutchinson Homes designed this 4-bedroom, 3-full-bath home around outdoor entertaining, and it shows. The butcher block island inside flows directly to that back porch, which means someone's always grilling while the crowd migrates between kitchen and yard. The Majestic 42-inch wood-burning fireplace anchors the outdoor space, turning fall evenings into the kind of night where nobody leaves until the fire dies down.

At 2,817 square feet of conditioned space, the open floorplan keeps sightlines clear so parents can watch kids play in the back while cooking dinner. Multiple living areas mean someone can claim the media room when a game's on while others handle yard games. The primary bedroom on the main floor and second primary suite upstairs give flexibility if grandparents are visiting or teenagers claim their own space. Built with 2x6 exterior framing and spray foam insulation, the home performs efficiently in Hill Country heat and cold, which means higher comfort and lower utility bills.

Wimberley ISD schools feed this property. Jacobs Well Elementary, Danforth Middle, and Wimberley High School (GreatSchools 8/10) anchor the district. Wimberley itself sits at the intersection of Ranch Road 12 and River Road, about 40 minutes from downtown Austin and 45 minutes from Domain and Domain shopping. The town's known for its art scene, farmers markets, and proximity to Cypress Creek and the Blanco River - actual outdoor recreation, not just yards.

The finishes are solid: concrete, terrazzo, and tile flooring throughout; quartz countertops; custom cabinetry; and ZLINE appliances. Stone counters, double vanities, walk-in closets, and a soaking tub handle the details. The 2-car garage stays insulated, and black metal roofing with steel structural columns means this home was built to last past the next generation of War Bonnet barbecues. Priced at $830,000 ($295 per square foot), this is the house where August evenings stretch long and the cooler arrives cold.
