Beyond the patio, the lifestyle truly shines with your very own private pickleball court, ready for friendly matches, weekend tournaments, or evening games under the Texas sky. Across the charming bridgeway, or accessible by stairs, sits a separate 1 bedroom, 1 bath guest apartment currently used as a short-term rental, offering incredible potential for guests, multigenerational living, or added income. Enjoy the peace of country living while being less than 10 miles from Downtown Elgin and within easy reach of Austin.
