136 Park Ridge

Description

Perched high above the breathtaking Guadalupe River Valley, 136 Park Ridge is a rare legacy property occupying 4.67 acres within the prestigious Cordillera Ranch. Commanding 20 mile panoramic views from one of the community's most coveted elevations, this 5,087 square foot custom residence offers refined Hill Country living at its finest-along with exceptional privacy rarely found in a community setting. Built in 2004 by Burdick and Christofilis and thoughtfully designed by renowned architect Ken Woolley, the home blends timeless architecture with exceptional craftsmanship and modern comfort. A distinctive foyer welcomes you into beautifully curated spaces that include a private study with custom built-ins and abundant storage, an elegant dining room with custom cabinetry, and a richly detailed beamed family room anchored by gas logs. Surround stereo sound extends throughout the home, garage, and outdoor patio, and the residence is fully networked for seamless internet connectivity. The open-concept kitchen is designed for both entertaining and everyday living, featuring an expansive island, a large walk-in pantry, a wine refrigerator, and an ice maker, all flowing effortlessly into the main living areas and outdoor spaces. The home offers four spacious bedrooms, four full baths each with a built-in closet, and a powder bath downstairs. Upstairs, a private library suite with built-ins and its own refrigerator provides a flexible retreat for guests or extended family, complemented by a large storage room and a dedicated exercise room. A well-appointed laundry room adds everyday convenience. The primary suite serves as a private sanctuary, highlighted by two exceptionally large his-and-her closets complete with packing stations. The spa-inspired primary bath features heated floors, separate water closets and vanities, an oversized walk-in shower, and a large soaking tub designed for relaxation. Thoughtful upgrades and mechanical improvements include three HVAC systems replaced in 2020 and 2021, two 50-gallon water heaters installed in 2021, a central vacuum system, water softener, RO system for drinking water, local alarm system, pest control dispersal system, interior shutters across the front of the home, and smoke detectors, ceiling fans, and built-in stereo speakers throughout. Designed to maximize its extraordinary vantage point overlooking the Guadalupe River Valley, the outdoor living areas are equally impressive and remarkably private. An under-roof patio with stereo sound creates the perfect setting for entertaining, while the outdoor kitchen, refurbished in 2025, enhances the experience. A propane fire pit, fountain water feature, and two separate outdoor sitting areas invite you to relax and take in the sweeping views in complete seclusion. The approximately 0.6-acre fenced backyard includes a pet access door and is supported by a 13-station sprinkler system reconditioned in 2025. The three-car garage offers additional storage and epoxy flooring, and the home is crowned by a tile roof just recently resealed. This exceptional high-elevation estate offers architectural pedigree, extensive updates, extraordinary privacy, and truly unmatched long-range views, all within one of the Texas Hill Country's most exclusive country club communities.
