550 Cliffside Rd, Wimberley, TX 78676

There's a version of your life that starts with a bluff above the Blanco River, just over 3 acres of Hill Country quiet right outside Wimberley. Whether that's your every day or your every weekend is entirely up to you. The main house is laid out for gathering, cooking and unwinding and having your morning coffee or evening wine with a stunning view. Overflow guests have their own detached, climate-controlled sleeping quarters-a vintage themed room with covered porch and mini-split, perched on a trailer! Can be sold with 4 adult twin XL bunk beds. Multiple covered porches open up to views of the winding Blanco and beyond. The Blanco runs occasionally with wet weather, which is part of its character and when it's flowing, it's spectacular. When not, this is a hiking, climbing and exploration paradise. Beyond the bluff, Wimberley's trails, swimming holes and open ranchland make every direction worth traversing. A voluntary $70/yr fee unlocks Burnett Ranch Water Park's swimming holes, including the southern river park swim hole, reliably refreshing even through recent droughts. When you're not here, the property works for you. A 4.96/5 Airbnb rating across 98 reviews reflects a guest experience that books on reputation alone(financials available). Included shipping container handles owner storage discreetly, out of sightlines. Internet is cellular-based, guests come here to unplug, and they love it for exactly that reason. This listing covers Lot 30 (3.033 acres) with the main house. An adjacent 2.760-acre lot is available as well, inquire about acquiring both for combined 5.81 acres of bluff-top serenity. The Hill Country has a way of making the decision for you once you're here so you can't miss this one. Call for a showing today.

The Blanco River runs right below 550 Cliffside Rd in Wimberley, and from this 3.033-acre bluff in Burnett Ranch Section 1, you wake to the sound of water moving through Hill Country limestone. The property sits on a private maintained road with mature trees providing canopy cover, the river visible from multiple covered porches that frame the winding water like a living landscape painting.

This four-bedroom, two-bath home built in 1977 spans 1,805 square feet at $471 per square foot. The layout opens around a kitchen island with quartz counters, vaulted ceilings, and multiple living areas that connect to the outdoors through stackable covered porches. Wood and tile flooring flow throughout, and the smart thermostat keeps the cedar and HardiPlank exterior comfortable year-round. A screened porch extends the living space, while the main residence includes a second primary bath alongside the owner suite, both practical for the property's proven short-term rental history.

A private footpath descends the bluff to the Blanco riverbed below. When the seasonal river runs, it's spectacular. When it recedes, the exposed limestone creates climbing, wading, and exploration territory that belongs only to this property. The Burnett Ranch HOA at $70 annually provides access to the community's swimming holes, including the southern river park swim hole that stays refreshing even through Texas droughts. Wimberley's trails, Jacob's Well, and the broader Hill Country landscape radiate outward in every direction from this location.

The property includes a detached guest structure, a climate-controlled vintage-themed room with covered porch and mini-split system. A shipping container handles storage discreetly. The covered outdoor living room faces the river view. The home sold furnished as a complete multigenerational setup, and its 4.95 out of 5 Airbnb rating across 75 reviews reflects consistent guest experience that converts to repeat bookings.

Wimberley ISD serves the property, with Blue Hole Elementary, Danforth Middle, and Wimberley High School assigned. The Hays County location puts downtown Austin within reasonable driving distance for those splitting time between Hill Country serenity and city employment.

This is a property where the acoustic signature changes seasonally, where morning coffee tastes different on the porch above flowing water, where the decision to stay or leave for town somehow becomes easier the longer you remain.
