834 NORTHWOOD HILLS - FIRST TIME ON THE MARKET! Discover an extraordinary opportunity to own a striking modern, Hill Country infused homestead set on 12.09 acres just a few minutes from historic downtown Fredericksburg. Approaching the property, magnificent views to the north unfurl before one meanders down into this private, serene vale. Located at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, the residence is surrounded by native stone, mature trees, and signature natural landscaping completing this veritable haven. The home's inviting, bold, symmetrical design features a classic wraparound veranda crowned with a unique third-level observatory, complete with a spiral staircase which leads down to a custom wine cellar--an unexpected delight, perfect for intimate wine tastings. The main level is arranged in four quadrants connected by wide hallways with natural wood floors and expansive, light-filled living spaces. Nearly floor-to-ceiling windows create an indoor/outdoor feel and frame the gorgeous views of the surrounding acreage. The home offers four bedrooms and three-and-a-half bathrooms providing generous and comfortable accommodation for family and guests. The primary bedroom is on the main level along with another bedroom fitted with 'in-built' bunks for four people, separated into two self-contained rooms, a Hollywood bathroom and an adjoining rec room. There is a dedicated laundry on the main level and a half bathroom for guests. The second level has two spacious bedrooms with a shared bathroom, expansive closet space and attic storage. The observatory offers spectacular panoramic views and currently functions as a home office. A signature feature is the resort-style pool and spa, perfectly oriented to embrace the vistas. An adjoining al fresco dining area--complete with a gas barbecue, food prep counter, outdoor bathroom, and spacious storage room with refrigerator--sets the stage for sun-soaked afternoons and starlit dinners. A detached guest house, currently a long-term rental, provides immediate income potential or flexible accommodations for visitors. The 12.09 acres offer room to transform the property into a working ranchette, while a seasonal creek on the northwest corner adds natural beauty and tranquility. Benefiting from an agricultural exemption, this estate enjoys reduced property taxes--an added advantage in Fredericksburg's highly coveted market. 834 Northwood Hills is more than a home; it's a rare fusion of aesthetic allure, nature, spacious living and privacy. A personal retreat. An architectural statement. A significant lifestyle investment opportunity.
