Property Description

SUNRISE VISTA RANCHETTE sits on 20 acres in Travis County, at the heart of Central Texas and the fast-growing Texas Triangle. Tucked away on a quiet dead-end road off RR 1431, the hilltop homesite and barn overlook Lime Creek Valley and face approximately 10,000 acres of protected preserve land, including the Baker Sanctuary. The setting offers privacy, panoramic Hill Country views, abundant wildlife, and convenient access to Cedar Park, Round Rock, and Austin. Enjoy year-round scenery with deer, turkey, migratory birds, and soaring hawks. Seasonal wildflowers, fall color, rain-fed waterfalls, sunrise and moonrise views, stargazing, weather systems, and distant fireworks create a truly special backdrop. The single-story 4-bedroom, 3-bath home (approx. 2,627 sq ft) features a horseshoe floor plan with gated courtyard, covered front porch, and a long covered back deck. South-facing living areas offer floor-to-ceiling windows with unobstructed valley views. Cross-fenced hillside acreage under wildlife management is ideal for rotational grazing, beekeeping, hunting, recreation, or future development. A 9-stall barn (approx. 2,482 sq ft) includes an air-conditioned office, workshop, hay room, and chicken coop with run. With light restrictions, the property offers flexibility for a family homestead, compound, private estate, or potential commercial or mixed-use use (buyer to verify). Designed for efficiency and independence, the home is powered by a 20kW off-grid solar system with 90kW of battery storage, with PEC backup, and a 12,800-gallon rainwater collection system. Low property taxes via wildlife management and no state income tax. Minutes to major shopping, dining, medical care, Lake Travis, parks, highways, and public transit, with access to ABIA, UT Austin, major event venues, and downtown Austin. Zoned to highly rated schools. A rare opportunity to own a sizable Hill Country property with views, freedom, and proximity to Central Texas amenities.
