THE CREEK Gently rolling bottom land descends down to Mauras Creek while another portion cantilevers over a steep limestone bluff overlooking Cazey Creek just below. Whether youre fishing in the creek, picnicking by the waters edge or simply relaxing and enjoying the sounds of the waters flow, the creek front provides direct full-time access to recreation, scenic beauty and a habitat that really draws in the wildlife. THE FLAT The flat level spread based at the foothills and overlooking the creeks, was the ideal spot for construction. Strategically built out of the flood plain and integrated with views all around. THE HILL While most shy away from a hillside property, there are so many benefits that come from the hill that rises just past the front of the home. The benefits? (a) Beautiful hilltop advantage to unobstructed first-class valley views. (b) The wooded hillside is a great hangout for the native wildlife and birds. (c) Rugged limestone terraces and slopes are an excellent landscape for a manageable daily hike. (d) The hill creates a perfect natural privacy barrier. (e) Run-off from rain waters able to feed the creeks. (f) Importantly, the hillside blocks the improvements from the harsh west setting sun helping to save on the wear of the exterior of the home. WATER. CAZEY CREEK ONE SIDE OF CAZEY CREEK crystal clear cazey creek stretches along a portion of the eastern boundary. MAURAS CREEK BOTH SIDES OF MAURAS CREEK extensive frontage on both sides of Mauras Creek, located along a portion of the northern boundary. Seeing water in both of these creeks during the drought weve been in, says something...they are strong. During normal wet weather times, the swimming hole is full, the waterfall flows strong and adds an inviting sound that can be heard from the back porches of the home. Though water levels are currently low, it is not always the norm and one thing is for certain, the water is always crystal clear. WATER WELL, CONCRETE STORAGE TANKS Pump house, water well and additional water storage tank resources water to the improvements. SOILS. Underlain with a couple of different types of soil, Krum-Pratley at the creek side, which is soil that can be found near live water creating a welcoming environment for beautiful hardwoods and aquatic plant life to flourish and Eckrant rock outcrop complex, or in other words, limestone, can be found throughout the rugged areas laying a solid base for recreation, hiking, native growth, woodlands and wildlife cover. POWER. Power is already on the property servicing the improvements. IMPROVEMENTS. Quirky cool. Architecture that speaks modern ranch. Nestled in the picturesque town of Medina, Texas, The Goat Sheds stand as a testament to modern architectural ingenuity and design. Created by the visionary, Ignacio Salas-Humara, this stunning home was awarded winner of the prestigious Cran Award for Modern Home Design in 2022 and has become a beacon of style and luxury in the heart of the Lone Star State. Honored in the San Antonio Express News and as well on isharchitect and dwell, the Goat Sheds has a unique and crafty story behind it. Told by architect, Ignacio Salas-Humara, he explains that the home was based on the previous owners true love story. Long story short...the previous owners future husband worked on the family ranch which was transitioning from a goat to a cattle ranch at the time. Taking an obvious notice to the ranchers daughter, her father put this young man to the test to determine whether he was a hard worker and worthy of her hand in marriage. The task...dismantling all of the old goat sheds that were scattered over hundreds of acres. Through his proven dedication, the young man completed the task and was approved of his worthiness. The couple went on to be married and eventually built their dream home at the base of the hill where she would spend her childhood summers camping out underneath the same oak trees that were integrated into the house design. 6,522+/- SQUARE FEET...PLUS AN ADDITIONAL 1,126+/- SQUARE FEET IN PORCHES!
