There's Hill Country living. And then there's waking up to your own bend in Hondo Creek, saddling your horse in your five-stall barn, and realizing you'll never want to leave these 10 acres.The water changes everything: Hondo Creek doesn't just border this property-it defines it. Your private dock provides direct access for fishing at sunrise, kayaking through limestone bluffs, or simply cooling off on a July afternoon. This is living water, the kind that draws wildlife at dusk and creates that signature Hill Country sound you can't replicate anywhere else. The main residence is pure Hill Country elegance: Recently remodeled 2,500 square feet with four bedrooms and two-and-a-half baths.

This is where you'll spend most of your time once you realize air conditioning is optional when you have views like this and a breeze coming off the water. For the equestrian or the aspiring one: Five-stall barn with tack room. Round pen for training. Hay barn for storage. And 10+ acres of varied terrain perfect for riding, whether you're seasoned or just getting started. The infrastructure is here; you just bring the horses. The land itself tells the story: Cobblestone bridges connect hand-cut trails that wind through oak mottes and open meadows. Elevated views reveal layers of Hill Country ridgelines.

Complete self-sufficiency: Private well and septic system mean you're not beholden to utility schedules or restrictions. Solar-ready if you want to take it further. This property functions independently while remaining easily accessible to Bandera, Utopia, and everything the Hill Country offers. This is the rare trifecta: Legitimate waterfront on a creek that flows. Serious acreage with equestrian infrastructure. A completely remodeled residence that's ready today.
