Hidden Valley Hideaway

Hidden Valley Hideaway is the epitome of Hill Country living, blending luxury and rugged beauty in a tranquil setting just a short drive from historic Kerrville TX. Enjoy long-range hilltop views from the fantastic home overlooking rolling acreage, complete with a natural spring which fills a small pond in non-drought years and flows down the valley into your very own improved section of live-water Tomas Creek. A custom hilltop home and guest house compliment the seclusive element of the property, designed for maximum energy efficiency by utilizing solar & wind power generation and a massive rainwater collection/storage system, complete with all the modern touches one could ask for in a getaway or full-time residence alike. The guest house and main home are connected by a large covered porch/breezeway and share a stunning private courtyard, separately fenced and beautifully landscaped in a desert style making it a perfect, cool place to enjoy outdoor cooking and stargazing with minimal light pollution.

The live-water section of Tomas Creek which traverses approximately 400ft of the southwest corner of the property is more than frontage, being owned on both sides and improved with a dam on the southern property line to create a fishing/swimming hole of 6-8ft depth, home to catfish, bass, and various pan fish. A kayak/boat launching site has been cut and maintained for ease of use near the dam.

Each structure on the property is equipped with rain collection and storage, totaling 23,000 gallons of storage capacity and a multi-stage filtration system providing high quality, crystal clear water to the homes. In addition to these systems with their massive capacity for water storage, a well was drilled in 2016 to a depth of 360ft with estimated production rate of 35gpm. This well has been used primarily for landscape irrigation purposes but is plumbed in for house usage if ever needed for such. A spacious barndominium on the hill opposite the main home provides ample equipment storage, work & recreation space, as well as 2 upstairs and 1 main level air conditioned guest rooms, a full bath, and more rainwater collection.

This ranchette is part of a larger game-fenced community of approximately 370 acres consisting of 4 separate property owners, and access is controlled via electronic entrance gate with remote and/or keypad capability. Abundant native and exotic game call the property home, providing beauty and intrigue in addition to an agricultural tax exemption maintained by the management and occasional sale of exotic herd units. Much land improvement including selective clearing, Texas native tree and wildflower planting & maintenance, creek upkeep, and trail maintenance has been thoughtfully planned and carried out by the current owner, creating an outdoor experience not easily rivaled. Over 1.5 miles of private chip-seal road separate this property from the nearest county road, ensuring privacy and seclusion with no road noise to be heard.

Most of the high-end furnishings in the homes will be included with the sale, and the equipment and accessories necessary for keeping the property looking its best are available for purchase if the buyer so desires. This is a great opportunity to call this prime piece of the Hill Country your own. Give us a call to schedule a tour!
