The Main Residence
The single-story main residence is warm, refined, and deeply connected to the land. White oak flooring runs throughout, while expansive windows bring in views of the grounds and old-growth oaks. The great room is one of the strongest interior moments, with a floor-to-ceiling fireplace, bar for entertaining, and a sliding NanaWall that opens the home toward the pool, gardens, and outdoor living areas.
The kitchen continues the sense of elevated ease with professional-grade appliances, an expansive island, generous storage, and enchanting views of the gardens. The primary suite is spacious and peaceful, while two additional bedrooms each offer attached baths for family or guests. The home feels comfortable and livable, yet thoughtful in every detail, with spaces that support quiet daily living, full houses, and effortless entertaining.
The Pool: A Connector
The pool is the connector of the property. It sits between the main residence, party barn, guest studios, and outdoor living areas, creating a natural center of gravity. The main home opens toward it, the party barn spills naturally onto it, and the guest studios stay connected to the experience while maintaining their privacy.
This is what makes the property live so well. It functions like a private resort, with the pool as the central gathering place and the rhythm of the home built around connection, ease, and time spent outside.
The Party Barn: A Gathering Spot
The party barn adds another layer of life to the property and is one of the reasons it feels so complete. Positioned beside the pool, it extends the outdoor living experience with an easy flow from swimming and lounging to dining, watching a game, gathering by the fireplace, or settling in at the bar.
Open construction, exposed beams, corrugated metal, stone, and warm wood details give the space a relaxed but substantial feel. The long bar, refrigerator, pool bath, wired sound and electronics, and beautiful stone fireplace make it ready for entertaining. Beyond the party barn, the large lawn provides even more space to enjoy the property, whether for a game of cornhole, pets, or casual evenings outside. It is the kind of space that lets a full day unfold naturally, from the pool to the barn to the lawn.
Guest Studios: Flexible Space
The detached guest studios add flexibility in a way that feels elevated and intentional. Each has its own style, privacy, and connection to the property, with well-appointed full baths and kitchenettes that make the spaces comfortable for longer stays.
The studios create options for guests, extended family, creative work, wellness space, overflow living, or potential income. The main residence offers 3,536 square feet, with Studio 1 adding 450 square feet, not including its loft, and Studio 2 adding 371 square feet, for a total of 4,357 square feet of finished living space across the main home and two studios.
Together, they help the property live beautifully when the house is full, giving people space to stay comfortably while remaining close to the pool, party barn, gardens, and outdoor gathering areas. The property also includes a separate equipment storage structure with potential for a one-car garage and generous loft storage, providing practical space for tools, hobbies, equipment, or future use.
Gardens, Land & Wildlife
The butterfly gardens, orchard, lawn, and 12 wildlife-exempt acres give 1900 Pursley Road its sense of beauty and permanence. Walk paths, sitting areas, raised beds, fruit trees, herbs, vegetables, native plantings, wildflowers, birds, pollinators, turkeys, a seasonal creek, and natural springs create a setting that feels alive, peaceful, and thoughtfully layered.
The acreage gives every part of the property room to breathe, while still keeping the home, pool, barn, studios, gardens, and outdoor spaces connected. It is a property that feels established and cared for, with a rhythm between beauty and function, privacy and convenience, quiet and connection.
Infrastructure: Long-Term Confidence
Behind the beauty is an infrastructure that makes the property feel complete. The home has a new metal roof, closed-cell spray foam insulation, and an upgraded pier-and-beam humidity ventilation system. The property is also supported by a 65,000-gallon rainwater collection system with full filtration, a 5,000-gallon well-water storage tank, underground utilities, irrigation across the interior lawn, extensive landscape and tree lighting, and conduit already run for a potential future barn or shop.
These details are not flashy, but they are meaningful. They support the way the property lives and give it the kind of substance buyers want in a true legacy property.
Connected to Dripping Springs & Austin
The location adds another layer of value. 1900 Pursley Road has the quiet, tucked-away feel buyers want in the Hill Country, yet it remains incredibly connected to Dripping Springs conveniences and Downtown Austin. The property is approximately 6 miles from the Dripping Springs H-E-B, making daily errands easy without sacrificing privacy or the feeling of retreat.
Restaurants, coffee shops, wineries, breweries, fitness, Dripping Springs schools, and the growing 290 corridor are all within reach, which makes this setting so compelling. You get acreage, guest spaces, resort-style amenities, gardens, and the calm of a private Hill Country property, with the ease of town close by.
A Property Designed to Last Over Generations
Private, calm, and rich with possibility, 1900 Pursley Road offers the rare combination buyers hope to find in the Hill Country: a beautiful everyday residence, resort-style outdoor living, flexible guest accommodations, meaningful land, and the kind of thoughtful design and infrastructure that make a property feel truly lasting.

Hays County - Mustang Lake Ranch, Dripping Springs, TX
Just 15 minutes west of Dripping Springs, on the edge of Austin’s Hill Country, a rare legacy property unfolds across more than 2,300 breathtaking acres — a ranch of scale, beauty, and proximity that is almost impossible to replicate this close to the city.
Additional acreage available:
Mustang Creek Ranch (855+/- acres)
Mustang Springs Ranch (Combined 3,200+ acres)
Live water — true, year-round live water — shaded by mature oak trees. Ideal for fishing, paddle boarding, kayaking, or simply enjoying quiet mornings along the shoreline. An 11-acre spring-fed lake anchors the landscape, complemented by several additional ponds scattered throughout the property.
The terrain is as dynamic as it is beautiful. Deep valleys give way to panoramic hilltop views that stretch for miles across the Hill Country. A thoughtfully built internal road system provides excellent access throughout, whether you’re heading to a favorite fishing spot, exploring by ATV, or riding horseback across rolling pastureland. A thoughtfully designed trail system could be added to connect the ranch’s most scenic features, offering miles of access for equestrian riding, hiking, jogging, mountain biking, and golf cart travel beyond the main roads.
Entirely high-fenced and accessed through five separate entrances, the property offers privacy and security rarely found at this scale. The main gate sits just 2.5 miles from Highway 290, crossing a dammed creek that creates yet another striking water feature upon arrival. Despite its seclusion, you’re only about 45 minutes from Central Austin and under an hour to Austin-Bergstrom International Airport — close enough for convenience, far enough to feel a world away.
Located in Hays County, the ranch is primarily served by Dripping Springs ISD and Johnson City ISD, with portions also within Wimberley and Blanco ISD — offering flexibility for families seeking strong educational options.
For the aviation enthusiast, there is potential for a 4,400-foot airstrip or private helicopter pads, adding another layer of accessibility to an already remarkable retreat.
What truly sets this ranch apart is the lifestyle it affords. This is a place where families can gather across generations. Where children grow up fishing in spring-fed waters, riding horses at sunset, and exploring thousands of acres of protected landscape. Where weekends feel like extended vacations, yet downtown Austin’s restaurants, business centers, and cultural life remain within easy reach.
Just 25 minutes from Texas’ fastest-growing vineyard region and under an hour to the Hill Country’s most celebrated destinations, the ranch places you at the center of it all — while preserving unmatched privacy behind its gates.
Ranches of this magnitude, with true live water and this level of proximity to Austin, rarely come available — and often do not trade again for decades. For those seeking a legacy property, a family compound, or a private Hill Country sanctuary with long-term upside, this offering represents an extraordinary opportunity to own something that simply cannot be recreated.
A property of this scope must be experienced in person. Once you tour the land, walk the water, and stand on the hilltops, the vision becomes unmistakable.
