Five minutes from Wimberley and ten minutes from San Marcos, this Hill Country property brings together acreage, craftsmanship, and flexibility — a setting that feels worlds away yet remains easy to reach from Austin and San Antonio. At its center is a 2,300-square-foot, 4-bed, 2-bath log home surrounded by mature oaks and thoughtful outdoor spaces. Inside, vaulted ceilings, exposed wood, two stone fireplaces, custom cabinetry, mosaic tilework, and handcrafted details give the home lasting charm. The kitchen pairs granite countertops and a gas range with a mosaic backsplash, with the primary bath showcasing a sculptural walk-in shower and the secondary a mosaic-surrounded soaking tub. Outside, the grounds unfold into gathering and entertaining spaces: a broad veranda leads to stone pathways, a koi pond, pool, cabana, outdoor kitchen, fire pit, and stage. Perhaps the most memorable detail: the hand-built open-air stone chapel. Lined with wooden pews among the oaks, it seats approximately 100 guests for weddings, concerts, retreats, ceremonies, and private events. Other improvements include a barn with stalls and corral, equestrian infrastructure, a detached garage, and an elaborate stone rabbit run — one of several unexpected details across the property. Previously both a homestead and income-producing short-term rental, the property suits a private escape, hospitality concept, event venue, equestrian residence, or any combination. With Ranch Road 12 access and proximity to Wimberley, Jacob's Well, San Marcos, and Hill Country Studios, it sits near the region's most active destinations while keeping its privacy and character. Multiple acreage options: 10 acres at $1,295,000; 12 acres at $1,495,000; 20 acres at $1,995,000; 24 acres at $2,500,000
