Tarpley, TX 78883 474 Lost Ln.

A Unique Retreat, in the Hilly Woods of Bandera County. This home was given a lot of thought, detail, artistic flare and outside indoor concepts. You will see what I mean, when you come and visit. Lost Lane meanders through the woods until you come upon this home. The views are spectacular, the hills are everywhere, and there are places for everyone, both inside and out. Multiple Patios, Two 2nd Level Covered Decks and a Screened in Porch runs the entire length of the home. This 3/2 home is very open and spacious with extremely high ceilings and windows are everywhere. The cedar post stair case to the 2nd level is beautiful craftsmanship, and blend well with the knotty pine floors. The master level has 2 loft areas to take in the views and 2 outdoor decks to bring the outside in. The two other bedrooms and bath are downstairs. The large kitchen area is also surrounded by custom wooden windows and cobalt blue tiles. The star of the show in the kitchen is the beautifully impressive, AGA Rangmaster Elan Deluxe. It's a Cobalt Blue, Freestanding Range Cooker, they say. There are 5 gas burners on the range top and 3 separate oven compartments. It is a true piece of functional art. There is an extremely large pantry in the kitchen and it has a pass through to the kitchen counter. How handy is that? The wood stove in the living area gives off plenty of heat on the limited cold days here in the hill country. Across the way from the main home is a Dog- Trot style cabin, with a bedroom and bathroom on on side of the breezeway and a kitchenette and eating area on the other side. A walkway plank deck splits the middle of the Dog-Trot and leads to a sitting area and an outdoor shower. There is a seasonal creek that winds its way through the property. At the beginning of the creek is a large deep pool like area and then it narrows down into a creek that runs along the rear of the home. When its running, you can sit on the back screened in porch and be mesmerized by the tranquil current and sound of the creek. The surrounding 20 acres is true hill country experience, including its own hill, creek, waterfall, sycamore and cypress trees, all packed into one exquisite property.
