About This Home

This property is still listed ... new listing is $2,250,000 and is the Rock House one 2.7 acres. SEE MLS # for new details... Elevate your future by stepping into history with this 4,000+ sq.ft. 1880s updated Pioneer rock home overlooking a gorgeous pool and spa set on 11 acres in the gorgeous Texas Hill Country. Curate your lifestyle at this in-town private Fredericksburg retreat while also enjoying a steady revenue stream with the 4 income-producing STR cabins strategically hidden at the other end of the property. The main house boasts 4 bedrooms 3 baths, chefs kitchen open to multiple entertaining areas inside and out including a firepit, flexible barn space, "she shed", sparkling pool / spa and fenced garden area all overlooking a wildlife filled pasture. The property provides two gated entrances- one for the main house and a separate gate for the cabins perfectly tucked away and hidden out of site. Enjoy quiet weekends in your 4 bedroom rock house while guests unwind in the cabins, perfect for multi-generational retreats and celebrations. OR, create a thriving Hill Country business by leasing the main house (current STR permit in place) and cabins yet the true potential lies in vision: expand with additional cabins, create a boutique retreat, or—with variance—imagine a destination where farm-to-table dining, yoga pavilions, event barns, coffee houses, or even pickleball courts & food trucks redefine Hill Country hospitality. The acreage, location, and flexible footprint allow both privacy and entrepreneurial innovation. So much flexibility for private enjoyment or business use. Ideally located across from Heritage, a private school, and just minutes from Main St and Gillespie County Airport with a jet-ready runway, this is a rare chance to combine history, lifestyle, and income generating potential in one of Texas' most desirable destinations. Currently rock house and 4 cabins are in the rental pool - look up stayatololo.com to see the platform to make reservations. Call Listing Agent with questions or to schedule a showing.
