Perched atop a hill in Boerne, a rare gem has hit the market offering panoramic Hill Country views for less than a million dollars.
The sprawling hilltop mansion offers multiple balconies and an observation deck for taking in the lush scenery, including a nearby golf course and the dynamic rolling hills of Tapatio Springs.
“It has the best views in Kendall County,” said Kris Forks, listing agent with Kuper Sotheby’s International Realty.
Situated on a two-acre lot, the property offers the serenity of various water features including a private waterfall.
Inside, the 5,878-square-foot home, constructed in 1993, exhibits the remnants of ’90s-does-traditional Spanish style, at times to a dramatic degree.
The entrance’s large double doors open onto a formal living room framed by columns and statues. Above, a fluted, texturized ceiling adds further interest. Entertaining in the formal living room can also spill onto a long balcony from multiple sets of double doors, which bathe the room in light and make views the primary focal point.
Elsewhere in the home, a stairwell features yet another sweeping vista in the form of a mural. But if you don’t feel like taking the spiral staircase, the home also comes with an elevator, though that feature is currently out of service. Additional amenities throughout the house include multiple offices, a cedar closet and two laundry rooms, the listing notes.
Columns also appear in the master bath, framing a large, luxurious soaking tub.
It’s hard to believe that this gem would be offered at less than a million — indeed, its $925,000 price tag is even below its $1.4 million tax valuation. But, according to the listing, that’s because it needs some work.
Though Forks did not specify the upgrades needed on the home, he said it regards “deferred maintenance” for several features, some of which haven’t been updated since 1993.
For the right buyer willing to put in a little elbow grease, this crown jewel of Kendell County appears ready to shine.
