Spectacular property just 2 miles from downtown San Marcos: 4.77 acres of wooded land with creek and ponds, and a 4BR, 3 bath home. Adjacent to 251-acre Spring Lake Wildlife Preserve, where you can hike to your heart's content over well-maintained trails. Nestled within a friendly community, walking distance to Texas State campus, but isolated and private, this unique property is accessed down a long tree-lined driveway at the end of a cul-de-sac with no visible neighbors. Beautiful views from all sides, including of the seasonal burbling creek that runs the length of the property. The house’s metal roof and wooded, shady grounds keep the property and the house at a lower temperature than the surrounding community, saving on cooling costs. Water is provided by a spring fed well. Large, open lawn around the house provides plenty of room for family gatherings. The house has been enhanced with a large, bright sun-room, screened porch, built-in shelves, handcrafted cedar mantle over the stone fireplace, and decks on 3 sides. In addition, there is a 500 square-foot "In-law" unit on the lower level providing rental or office possibilities. Enjoy easy access to San Marcos, the university, and surrounding attractions, as well as Austin and San Antonio airports. Rarely are such large plots available in such central locations. This property consists of 124 Elm Hill Court (4 acres), 122 Elm Hill Court (.286 acres), and 412 Oak Ridge Drive (.49 acres). All lots are zoned SF6, to be verified by buyer.
