Description

Hill Country home perched atop one of the highest hills in coveted Grey Forest, this architecturally distinctive retreat offers a rare blend of privacy, panoramic views, and timeless character, all just minutes from the conveniences of San Antonio. Surrounded by protected conservation land and set on nearly two private acres shaded by more than 100 mature live oak trees, the property delivers a sense of serenity that feels worlds away from the city. A circular drive and expansive parking area create a welcoming arrival experience, while the home's elevated setting immediately captures breathtaking long-range views. Inside, soaring ceilings, natural light, and thoughtfully designed gathering spaces create an atmosphere equally suited for relaxed daily living and memorable entertaining. The sunken living room serves as the heart of the home, anchored by a striking stone gas fireplace and framed by oversized Pella windows that showcase the surrounding landscape. Multiple indoor and outdoor living spaces invite quiet mornings, sunset gatherings, and evenings under the stars. The flexible floor plan features 4 bedrooms, 3 full baths, and an array of bonus spaces designed to adapt to a variety of lifestyles. Whether envisioned as a private home office, fitness studio, media room, or guest retreat, the layout provides exceptional versatility, including separate guest quarters with a private back staircase entrance ideal for multigenerational living, long-term guests, or potential rental use. A spiral staircase leads to the third-story moon loft, offering a secluded escape with elevated treetop and sunset views. The kitchen blends warmth and functionality with rich cherry cabinetry, granite countertops, gas cooking, and abundant storage. Outdoors, nearly 1,200 square feet of decks, patios, and porches extend the living experience into the natural surroundings, creating countless opportunities for entertaining or peaceful retreat. Thoughtful upgrades include a standing-seam metal roof, recently refinished decks, tankless water heater, water softener, three serviced HVAC systems, refreshed landscaping with newly planted trees, a tranquil front-yard pond, and private walking trails throughout the property. Ideally positioned near Old Town Helotes, La Cantera, The Rim, UTSA, major parks, and highly regarded Northside ISD schools, this is a unique opportunity to experience elevated living with space, privacy, and unmatched natural beauty.
