Property Description


0.00 Acres Lot
Built in 1977
For Sale - Active
Units n/a

Nestled just outside the ETJ on 2.58 acres. 17 Roadrunner Drive offers a rare chance to own a piece of the Texas Hill Country with flexibility to create your vision. This 3-bedroom, 2-bath home spans 1,680 square feet and was built in 1977, offering good bones and a layout ready for your updates. The property combines privacy, space, and potential-whether you're dreaming of a quiet homestead, a weekend getaway, or an income-producing short-term rental. While the home could benefit from cosmetic updates and some TLC, key features include a tin roof, tile floors, brick & hardi-plank siding, and a fireplace that brings a warm, rustic touch. The oversized 5-car garage-totaling over 1,400 square feet-offers room for storage, hobbies, or future workshop space. There's also a greenhouse, two water wells, and plenty of open land with mature trees and gentle topography. Whether you want to garden, raise chickens, or simply enjoy the peaceful views, the land is ready for your ideas. Located just minutes from Fredericksburg's shopping, dining, and wine country attractions, yet far enough out to enjoy starlit nights and the sounds of nature, this property delivers Hill Country charm with freedom to improve at your pace. Bring your creativity, your toolbelt, and your dreams-this is a blank canvas in a prime location with no HOA and no city restrictions holding you back.
