On the bank of the Blanco River just outside charming Wimberley, TX, modern living meets river romance in a contemporary home. Built in 2017 on commercial-grade steel piers, the striking exterior is composed of tile, steel and metal cladding. Open the custom-built, metal clad pivot door and a sense of calm washes over you as you are enveloped in this gracious home. The expansive, open living/dining/kitchen area has a full wall of glass windows with doors that open onto a covered balcony, complete with an outdoor kitchen & bar and space for dining and entertaining. Smooth concrete floors throughout the house give way to the kitchen’s elegant black granite and built-in appliances (wine refrigerator, refrigerator/freezer, double oven, microwave and dishwasher) that are every chef’s dream. Whether you relax in front of the exquisite Corten, black leather granite fireplace or wander the peaceful 2.3 acres of grounds and 154-foot private river frontage, the cares of the outside world will gently slip away. Enter the secluded owner’s wing and you are greeted by an enticing office nook, a master bedroom with large glass sliding doors that open onto the covered balcony, walk-in closets, and a spectacular, spa-inspired bath suite with two vanity areas, a generously sized whirlpool tub, and a walk-in shower. On the opposite side of the house, 2 king-sized bedrooms with walk-in closets that share a full bath provide the perfect place for family members or guests. This home includes a half-bath, a 3-car garage, and an extended utility room with a back entrance and a lift from the garage. Hot water is provided on demand by two tankless water heaters, and the home is water efficient with a 26,000 gallon-capacity rainwater collection system. This amazing home was the collaboration of Designer Nathan Estrada, the civil engineer who designed the piers for the state-of-the-art Fischer Store Road Bridge, and the homeowners.
