About 8717 South View Rd
There’s a quiet ease to this property—the kind you feel the moment you arrive and realize everything has already been thoughtfully done for you. Fully updated and carefully renovated with high-quality materials and craftsmanship, the home strikes that rare balance between refined and relaxed, where modern comfort meets a true country setting. Inside, the layout is both functional and inviting. The oversized living area opens seamlessly to the kitchen, creating a natural gathering space that feels expansive without losing its warmth. Just off the kitchen, a tucked-away dining room framed by large windows offers a more intimate setting—perfect for slow mornings or unhurried dinners with a view of the land beyond. The home features four bedrooms and three bathrooms, along with a dedicated office or flex space that can adapt to whatever season of life you’re in—work, hobbies, or a quiet retreat. Step outside, and the lifestyle really begins to unfold. A pool and hot tub anchor the outdoor space, complemented by a pergola designed for easy lounging and long afternoons in the shade. Beyond that, the property opens up with intention: an oversized workshop, a chicken coop, and a horse barn ready for its next chapter. The land itself is just as compelling—flat, usable, and spacious, with a designated build site already in place for a future casita or guest house. This is modern country living at its best—thoughtful, versatile, and ready to be enjoyed from day one. You're 12 miles from downtown Austin, 13 miles from quant downtown Dripping Springs, close to Summermoon coffee, HEB, The Waldorf School, Jester King Brewery, Deep Eddy Tasing Room and so much more. Low tax rate of just 1.5%! No restrictions. Come make this property your own.
