Tucked away in a quiet cul-de-sac on an oversized 0.78-acre lot, this beautifully updated Hill Country custom home offers the perfect balance of privacy, comfort, and style—all with no HOA. From the welcoming front porch to the elegant French doors, every detail of this thoughtfully designed home invites you to relax and enjoy.
The spacious 3,344 sq ft layout features multiple living and dining areas, an open-concept kitchen with upgraded tile and countertops, rich cabinetry, and a large center island—ideal for entertaining. Oversized windows fill the space with natural light, creating a seamless connection to the covered patio, outdoor kitchen, and expansive backyard.
The main floor includes the primary suite and all secondary bedrooms, along with a dedicated home office with built-in bookcases. Upstairs, a large bonus room with vaulted ceilings sits above the 3-car garage—perfect as a game room, media space, or a fourth bedroom.
This home has been meticulously maintained and thoughtfully upgraded, including:
– New roof & gutters (2024)
– New energy-efficient windows (2022) with lifetime transferable warranty
– Full interior & exterior paint
– Updated lighting throughout
– Upgraded kitchen & bathroom countertops and tile
– Two new TRANE HVAC units with full ductwork replacement (2023)
– Kinetico Water System (2023)
– Tankless water heater (2022)
– All kitchen, primary bath, and hall bath cabinets were refinished in Sherwin Williams SW7005 Pure White in early Sept. ***Please note before/after pictures in the photo grid***
The private backyard is shaded by mature trees and centered around a cozy fire pit, creating the perfect setting for morning coffee, evening cocktails, or year-round gatherings.
Located just minutes from Dripping Springs’ top-rated schools, shopping, and dining, 279 Rugged Earth Dr offers a rare opportunity to enjoy refined Hill Country living with modern upgrades and no HOA restrictions.
