About this home
Charming Hilltop Retreat with Main Home & Guest House on Nearly 4 Acres – Smithville School District. Discover peaceful country living just minutes from town in this rare find: a spacious 1,849 sq ft main home (built 2012) paired with a modern 850 sq ft guest house (built 2018). This property won’t stay on the market long! Nestled in a quiet, low-traffic hidden subdivision atop a scenic hill, the home sits at the end of a peaceful cul-de-sac on almost 4 acres of fully fenced and cross-fenced land. Enjoy privacy and tranquility with mature small-to-medium loblolly pines and oaks dotting the grounds—perfect for nature lovers or those seeking space to roam. Location is ideal: outside city limits (no city taxes!), yet conveniently close to shopping, medical facilities, employment, and all essential amenities. Families will appreciate assignment to the desirable, smaller Smithville school district. Energy-efficient and sustainable features set this property apart:
Durable tile roof
Installed solar system for reduced energy costs
Two rainwater catchment tanks dedicated to gardening
Standard aqua water meter for indoor use
Step inside the main home to a bright, welcoming layout. With a primary bedroom suite, featuring four stunning custom stained-glass windows and a private ensuite bath for a touch of elegance and serenity. This versatile setup is perfect for multi-generational living—ideal for an elderly parent, a young adult staying home longer, or as an income-generating rental (guest house offers independent living space). Embrace the best of both worlds: rural charm, modern comforts, and smart sustainability on a private, acreage estate. Schedule your showing today—this special property is ready for its next chapter!
