luxury houses with panoramic view for sale San Marcos, United States

Experience refined Hill Country living in this exceptional riverfront retreat, ideally situated within an exclusive gated community less than five minutes from the heart of Wimberley. Designed to embrace its picturesque surroundings, the residence offers a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living, highlighted by an infinity-edge pool overlooking the river-an extraordinary setting for relaxing and entertaining. Graceful archways, soaring ceilings and custom millwork lend timeless architectural character throughout, while four fireplaces-including two gas fireplaces indoors and two wood-burning fireplaces outdoors-create an inviting atmosphere in every season. Expansive decks overlook the serene natural landscape, offering generous spaces to gather, unwind and enjoy the beauty of riverfront living. Above the garage, private guest quarters feature two bedrooms, two baths, a comfortable living area and a kitchenette, providing a welcoming retreat for family and guests. Just beyond the back steps lies a private stretch of crystal-clear riverfront, complete with an inviting swimming hole and access to nearly a mile of pristine shoreline. A shared easement among the riverfront owners allows residents to walk, explore and enjoy the water's edge in a way few properties can offer. Unlike many river communities, where shared access places you within view of neighboring homes and patios, the surrounding residences are thoughtfully positioned well above and away from the water-creating the remarkable feeling of having your own secluded river park, with no public access. Further enhanced by a second private gate and stone wall, the property offers exceptional privacy and security while remaining just minutes from Wimberley's charming shops, restaurants and galleries. Tranquil, secluded and beautifully appointed, this remarkable retreat captures the very best of elevated Hill Country living without sacrificing comfort, convenience or accessibility.

Pickleball before lunch. An afternoon that stretches by the pool. Dinner by the outdoor fire as panoramic Hill Country views give way to a star-filled sky. On 22 fenced acres just outside Wimberley, six minutes from downtown, the estate gives everyone a reason to stay close to home. None of it depends on anything past the gate: private wells, a 150kW generator, smart home automation, and fiber internet run the property day to day, backed by 30+ cameras and 3 safes that convey. Get ready in an 18' x 18' dressing room with custom cabinetry and display cases for a collection of handbags and shoes, a second closet, and a packing room for your next trip. Cook on Viking, including a 10-burner range, double ovens, and a walk-in pantry, in a kitchen built for company. Retreat to the study or the media room, which doubles as an F5-rated storm shelter. Upstairs, 5 en suite bedrooms, a library, a game room, and a hobby room. Laundry runs on both levels. Park in the attached 4-car garage with extra storage. Spend the afternoon at the pool, with a lazy river into a lagoon, a waterslide, waterfalls, and commercial-grade equipment. Cook out under more than 1,200 sqft of covered terrace, by the fireplace, or gather eggs from the coop and cut flowers from the garden, if that's more your speed. Skip it, and the space converts easily to lawn. Shoot pool or ping pong in the former showroom, now a game room with its own office, gym, and a 1,000-bottle wine room with its own entrance, or bring the cars back. It's wired for two 6,500-lb lifts and holds up to 7. Play pickleball, basketball, or volleyball in the 3,300 sqft reclaimed-wood barn, which still handles a full-size RV with 14'8" clearance, hookups, and 250-amp service. A second septic system, once tied to a guest house since removed, leaves room for a new one, subject to county approval. Owner-documented beekeeping is targeted to meet ag exemption requirements by 2028 if maintained, with eligibility determined by Hays CAD.
