5 Beds 4 Baths WACO-219404 MLS
Opulent seclusion at its very best in the heart of Texas with quick access to three International Airports—a true destination of comfort in the countryside. Nestled high above Cow House Creek in tree-covered, limestone bluffs that jet up from the creek bottom is a home that whispers, “welcome”. Glass doorways and walls of windows open to a vantage point of the valley below and a creek with boulder formations perfect for scaling. Beyond the creek as far as the eye can see are sunrises and sunsets that pictures simply cannot express. The two-story custom home boasts over 3,400 sq. ft. of space that flows as beautifully in a cozy & quiet retreat as it does when hosting family and friends for a long, restful weekend away from it all in the country. The foyer and winding staircase open into vaulted great room space, dining room surrounded by windows, and a kitchen designed around an island workspace that serves like a centerpiece during the holidays. Main floor space also includes the owner’s suite with doors opening onto a quiet porch for relaxing, an expansive dressing room space for a free-standing Greek bath along with a spa like shower, and plenty of wardrobe space. The current office is next to a full bath. The winding staircase is designed as a focal point that currently features the grand piano along with windows that scale with the stairs. Between the kitchen and the two vehicle garage is a side door to small porch, a large mudroom and utility space, and another full bath. Upstairs is home to a spacious landing overlooking the great room and the valley below. This is a perfect gathering place for a library or a play area, with still more space for an easy chair for reading or napping. Three bedrooms with walk-in closets and another spacious full bath complete the second floor. The home is situated amongst mature trees on property that is part of an original land-patent settlement dating to 1875. When the land was settled, the only road was a stagecoach trail, which doubled as a mail route, traversing through the property along a limestone ledge from the small town of Pidcoke to the nearby community of King. Just below the homesite is the historical dry-stacked, rock fence that held the trail secure and kept livestock out of the creek-side crops until harvest. The landscape is varied with native wildflowers, forbs & grasses that host live oak, red oak, pecan, black walnut, wild plum, cedar, and redbud trees. Wildlife is plentiful with white-tailed deer, Mexican eagles, Rio Grande turkeys, dove, fox, squirrels, rabbits, songbirds & Monarch butterflies frequenting throughout the changing seasons. A shared property-owner easement provides access to the valley and the Cowhouse Creek below with perfect settings for hay-rides, picnics, and of course . . .swimming. Just beyond the paved county road is Russell Road—a wide, well-built, private road used by only five land-owners. This country road becomes a benediction drive that welcomes you home with open arms. Call Ranchman Properties Team today and discover new adventures awaiting you! The property further features – • Paved circle drive and road down to the valley • Stock pond • A private water well with a 2,500 gallon fresh-water tank protected by a separate, insulated well house • Insulated 24’ garage with electric vehicle charging station and a plywood interior perfect for hanging all your tools & supplies • Three variable speed, high efficiency air conditioners keep the interior to the temperature of your liking • A 6.9 kW solar system provides about 40% of the property’s annual energy needs • Affordable high-speed internet comes via directed wireless • Additional land available
