Hardwood floors, plantation shutters, abundant natural light and gas log fireplace create interiors that feel inviting and grounded. Also includes dedicated dining, office, workshop and craft room.

Multiple detached outbuildings already equipped with plumbing and electricity open the door for future guest houses, casitas, workshops, RV storage, party barns, creative studios, hobby spaces, or multigenerational living opportunities. Here, the vision is entirely yours to create. The grounds have been meticulously maintained and include a private well dedicated to irrigation, a 3,000-gallon storage tank, dual points of entry for easy equipment access, and perhaps the most impressive chicken coop Austin has ever seen! Backing to more than 362 acres of conservation land. the property delivers a level of peace, privacy, and natural beauty that feels increasingly impossible to find within Austin city limits. Where mornings are quiet, the stars feel brighter, and the pace of life naturally slows down without sacrificing convenience. For buyers craving space, flexibility, privacy, and a true Austin-forward Hill Country lifestyle, Oliver Drive is an extraordinary opportunity to create something deeply personal and entirely your own.
