Luxury Estate in DWELL mag! Burning Creek Hill Country Retreat w/ Pool & Spa! Everything you need to get away, but without having to drive hours off the beaten path to get there.

An open floor plan provides a common living area with an 1880's Harvest Table, efficient kitchen, and comfortable living room all pulled together by a Danish wood-burning stove. The kitchen includes a gas cooktop, vented microwave, full-size electric oven, toaster oven, stainless appliances, a refrigerator, and fully stocked cabinets with cookware and dinner ware.

Lay out by the private pool. Soak in the hot tub in cool weather. Take a walk outside. The landscape is designed to be in tune with the natural environment using xeriscaping principles.

A fire pit nearby beckons gatherings most of the year. Follow the flagstone path and soak in the hot tub under the café lights. Relax while you pass the hours with a good book, a sip of iced tea, or grill up some steaks and have a glass of wine. Off the back porch there's a great chance you'll see deer, fox, coyote, armadillo, a flock of turkeys and other interesting wildlife pass along the creeks. There is a propane gas grill, a gas fire pit (pool deck), wood burning fire pit (across the creek from the house) and table and chairs for gathering or lounging out back.Both bathrooms are en suite, meaning both bathrooms can be kept functionally private inside the bedroom areas.
