This 2025 custom-built home sits proudly on 12 acres of Texas beauty, where the long, private driveway ensures two things: 1. you’ll feel like you own your own little kingdom, and 2. unexpected guests will have plenty of time to reconsider. Tucked nearly halfway into the property, the home offers privacy without sacrificing practicality. Inside, sophistication takes center stage.

Step outside and the land truly shines. Scattered trees are perfectly placed, by God himself, offering shade for cattle and horses who, frankly, will be living a better life than most people. At the same time, there’s plenty of lush pasture for grazing, roaming, or simply pretending you’re going to start a ranch or farm- no judgment here. And then there’s the 24x30 shop—a space with endless potential. Host gatherings, tackle projects, or finally commit to that hobby you’ve been talking about for years. It’s big enough to make things happen and versatile enough to make excuses disappear. In short, this property is refined without being fussy, spacious without being overwhelming, and just the right amount of impressive. It’s country living—with a wink and a well-polished finish.
