Description

The Clifftop Perch — a stunning, newly rebuilt retreat perched ~70 feet above the Blanco Riverbed in Wimberley. Enjoy panoramic sunset views from the expansive upper deck, relax in the window-wrapped living area with friends, or explore miles of dry riverbed trails below the bluff. Spring-fed swimming holes are a short 10-minute walk away. Set on 3 wooded acres with mature oaks and elms, this 1,720-sq-ft, 3-bed/2-bath home features two living areas, a screened porch, and a second-floor deck (~500 sq ft combined). The mid-century-modern kitchen includes a breakfast bar and induction range. A complete down-to-studs renovation finished in early 2024 replaced nearly everything–including utilities–while preserving select framing and foundation. For practical purposes, the home lives like a 2024 build with an effective age of 1.5 years. Detached, air-conditioned quarters (85 sq ft, on wheels) provide a private fourth bedroom tucked into the trees. The property extends below the cliff with house-sized boulders and small caves—ideal for exploring. Wildlife abounds, from deer to ring-tailed cats. Additional features include a discreet storage container, fencing, 42-inch porch deck rails, and high-speed cellular internet. Proven short-term rental averaging 4.95 stars on Airbnb (75 reviews). Located in Burnett Ranch with no POA restrictions, allowing future cabins or additional rentals.
