Property Description
SUNRISE VISTA RANCHETTE offers 20 scenic acres in Travis County in the heart of Central Texas' rapidly growing Texas Triangle. Located on a quiet dead-end road off RR 1431, the property provides privacy, sweeping Hill Country views, & convenient access to Cedar Park, Round Rock, and Austin amenities. The hilltop homesite overlooks Lime Creek Valley & faces approximately 10K acres of protected preserve land, including Baker Sanctuary, creating a peaceful natural backdrop with abundant wildlife such as deer & turkey. Enjoy year-round scenery including spring wildflowers, migrating birds, dramatic sunsets, & occasional waterfalls after rainfall. The single-story home features approximately 2,627 sq ft with 4 bedrooms & 3 bathrooms with a gated courtyard & covered back deck. South-facing living spaces include floor-to-ceiling windows capturing expansive valley views. The property also includes a 2,482 sq ft 9-stall barn with an air-conditioned office, workshop, hay room, & chicken coop with run. Cross-fenced acreage under wildlife management is ideal for livestock, recreation, or future improvements. Light deed restrictions require a minimum 1,800 sq ft residence. Historically the restrictions have been lightly enforced, offering flexibility for a homestead, private estate, family compound, or potential mixed-use opportunities (Buyer to verify). Additional features include wildlife management property taxes (under $5,000/year), a 20kW off-grid solar array with 90kW battery storage, & a 12,800-gallon rainwater collection system. Conveniently located near Lake Travis, major shopping & dining along 183A and Highway 1431, & within reach of major Central Texas destinations including Austin-Bergstrom International Airport, Circuit of The Americas, Dell Diamond, & the HEB Center at Cedar Park. This rare property offers the opportunity to enjoy private Hill Country living with exceptional views & close-in access to Austin's top attractions.
