Welcome to a micro homesteader's dream in the Texas Hill Country. Set on 2.2 acres inside the gated community of Big Valley, just a short drive from Helotes, Lakehills, Bandera, and Boerne, this peaceful property offers the perfect blend of sustainable living and comfort. The 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath home sits perched to capture stunning views from a sprawling back deck-partially covered and perfect for sunrise coffee or evening wind-downs. Enjoy the serene Hill Country landscape from your above-ground pool with a wraparound deck, or tend to the raised garden beds, safely fenced to protect your harvest. Bring your animals-there's a chicken coop ready for fresh eggs and two sheds for all your storage needs. A massive detached workshop with oversized sliding doors offers endless possibilities for hobbies, projects, or business use. Inside, the home has been thoughtfully updated with durable laminate plank flooring throughout, recessed lighting, freshly painted interiors, and bathrooms that blend rustic touches with modern style. The kitchen features an updated solid-surface countertop and a stunning custom live-edge wood bar that opens into the living area-ideal for hosting or quiet nights at home. Additional highlights include a large rainwater catchment system, electric gate entry, and an incredible covered front porch with cedar accents-welcoming and warm year-round. Located in the Northside ISD district but far enough out to enjoy starry skies, this property offers a rare opportunity to live simply, grow your own food, and unplug-without giving up access to town. The sellers have priced this one with intention-making sustainable Hill Country living truly attainable for those who've been dreaming of space, chickens, gardens, and fresh air.
