Enjoy an idyllic country lifestyle just minutes from San Antonio on this beautiful 136-acre farm in Saint Hedwig. The property includes 5600 +/- SF of living space. At the end of the tree-lined driveway sits the main residence. Built in 2001, this Texas limestone home has 2965 +/- SF, 3 bedrooms including a downstairs master suite, 2.5 baths, large kitchen and breakfast room, formal dining room, living room with cathedral ceilings, mud room with abundant storage space and closets, private home office, and upstairs loft area with wet bar. Enjoy breezy afternoons, gorgeous sunrises and sunsets, and views of the pecan orchard, lily ponds, heritage oaks, mustang grape-covered arbor, big blue sky and endless horizon while lounging on the 1,000 +/- SF wrap-around covered porch. The ultimate party barn provides the perfect venue for some of the best days of our lives. Whether you wish to just spend the afternoon watching the big game or entertaining all your friends and family, this space has it all: 2,200 SF +/-, a full-service bar with custom cabinets and counters, gas fireplace, bunk room, full bath, billiards loft, plus incredible habitat displays and wall space to showcase your animal mounts and trophies. You will be the envy of everyone and provide countless hours of shooting fun at the state-of-the-art indoor shooting range. The beautifully landscaped grounds and gardens, stone fire pit, and outdoor cooking area provide a lovely setting for picnics and gatherings. A mid-19th century restored log cabin, currently is used as a home office, provides yet another space for guests to enjoy or to work from home. The drive-through 3-car garage offers plenty of room for tandem-parked vehicles and toys, workshop, hobbies and storage. The nearby stock tank, when accompanied by grain crops planted in the adjacent field, offers plenty of opportunity to fish and hunt dove. The property's location along a major waterfowl migration pathway and two wet-weather creeks, afford a new buyer the value-add potential to increase surface water retention during the fall and winter. Pair these outdoor features with the unique party barn and gorgeous setting, and this property could provide a multitude of uses outside of its current residential status.
