Set on 21 acres on the North Bosque River, this Brad Alford custom residence delivers refined ranch living with a sense of space, privacy, and understated sophistication. With 4,500 square feet of the most thoughtful arrangement, the home balances gracious entertaining areas with well-defined private retreats. A white limestone exterior, standing-seam metal roof, and expansive patios establish a timeless presence, while cedar fencing and a circular driveway with a central rock garden esplanade create a composed and welcoming approach. The setting opens to gently sloped pastureland, offering scenic views toward the river and a quiet, natural backdrop. Inside, ceiling heights ranging from 10 to 12 feet pair beautifully with rich wood, custom moldings, and warm textures throughout. Double-hung vinyl windows fill the home with natural light, enhancing the warmth of the living spaces. The gourmet kitchen is designed for both form and function, featuring a gas cooktop in the island, granite countertops, honeyed oak cabinetry, new double ovens, a warming drawer, and extensive storage. A large walk-in pantry provides space for dry goods and serving pieces, supporting seamless hosting. Five generously sized bedrooms, three include ensuite baths, while two have private vanities and share one wet area. Several bedrooms offer private access, allowing flexibility and separation within the layout. The primary suite features an expansive walk-in closet, oversized walk-in shower with dual shower heads, and a jetted tub. Outdoor living unfolds across multiple levels, beginning with a massive covered patio. A resort-style pool is flanked by a fire pit and fountain, while a raised wooden deck overlooks the pasture and river beyond. Upstairs, a theater room and separate game room provide additional living and entertaining space. Located minutes from Lake Waco amenities and major routes, this property offers a rare combination of land, craftsmanship, and proximity.
