Quaint 3-bedroom, 2-bath home on an approximate 1/2-acre lot in the peaceful, out-of-city-limits River Hills community of San Marcos. Recent updates include new vinyl flooring, a newer roof (2022), and a detached metal 3-car garage with an automatic opener and convenient side entry to the home. Charming curb appeal welcomes you with a half-circle driveway lined by mature hedges and trees, a stone-accented exterior, bay window, and a wide covered front porch. Inside, the inviting living room is anchored by a masonry wood-burning fireplace, creating a warm and comfortable gathering space. The kitchen offers extended countertop space, a breakfast area, electric appliances, and a pantry for added storage. The split-bedroom layout provides privacy, with the primary suite situated opposite the secondary bedrooms and featuring a deep walk-in closet, a bay window overlooking the tranquil backyard, and an updated ensuite bath with a new walk-in shower. Cordless blinds are installed throughout the home. Outside, you'll find rain gutters, a covered back patio, an additional metal storage building, and a spacious partially fenced backyard with endless possibilities for entertaining, outdoor activities, a future pool, guest house, workshop, or garden. Enjoy the quiet surroundings and scenic setting of River Hills while remaining just minutes from Texas State University, shopping, restaurants, and convenient access to both Austin and San Antonio.
