A rare opportunity to own a historic German homestead in the heart of the scenic Doss Valley, just minutes from Fredericksburg. Owned by the Neffendorf family for generations, this nearly 80-acre property features a beautiful mix of pasture and wooded land with seasonal Mormon Creek and classic Hill Country views. The original stone home was thoughtfully restored and expanded in 2012 by Fredericksburg's premier green builder, Sierra Homes. All major mechanical systems (HVAC, electrical, plumbing) were replaced, and additions include a new kitchen, half bath, upstairs bedroom and bath, and a basement with wine storage and ample storage space. Historic character was carefully preserved with original stone walls, repurposed longleaf pine floors used for custom cabinetry, reclaimed beadboard, and original doors throughout. Energy-efficient windows and exterior doors provide modern comfort. Additional improvements include a remodeled historic smokehouse now serving as a guest house, a converted washhouse pottery studio, stone firepit, hot tub, detached two-car garage, and multiple barns and sheds. The property carries a wildlife exemption and offers exceptional Hill Country privacy, history, and charm.
