Custom-built by an award-winning builder, this unique home is now available in the very sought-after Fair Oaks Ranch, which has one of the safest city rankings in Texas! This home is within walking distance of the Fair Oaks Ranch Golf & Country Club, which offers two 18-hole golf courses, pools, tennis & pickleball courts, a fitness center, and dining options with membership. Location is everything, and this home and accompanying area provide an opportunity to enjoy wildlife and the convenience of easy access to IH10, downtown Boerne, San Antonio, and the highly acclaimed Boerne ISD schools. Nestled in a private, gated community with live security, 8519 Alydar Circle in Raintree Woods reflects the timeless charm of Fair Oaks Ranch and complements the natural beauty of the Texas Hill Country. Set on 1.6 beautifully oak-studded acres in a quiet cul-de-sac, this 4-bedroom, 3-bath home offers 3,346 sq ft, including a dining room, three living spaces, and a walk-in bar. Flooring throughout is selectively comprised of hardwood, tile, and carpeting. One feature that sets this home apart from many others is the inclusion of three wood-burning fireplaces (including a dual-sided fireplace that opens into the primary suite, AND primary bath), three sets of French doors that open to a covered back porch, and a massive deck to enjoy the Texas Hill Country. Upstairs, you'll find four large bedrooms (3 of which have walk-in closets), and two full baths, with an expansive second-story covered deck that is accessible from three of the upstairs bedrooms, inviting you to relax outdoors. The kitchen and downstairs bath have been stylishly updated, and other recent upgrades include new carpet, fresh exterior paint, new back fencing, and refinished decking. Other highlights include a 3-car garage, a large laundry room, abundant storage, and again, all this in a prime location. An important final note is that Fair Oaks Ranch is almost completely inclusive of single-family residences, limiting the addition of high-density and/or commercial growth. So, if you are interested in a custom-built home, in a quiet, upscale community with a high safety ranking, abundant wildlife, close to excellent schools, Boerne, and full services Country Club available, you won't want to miss this gem! ***Two new Carrier AC systems installed mid-June. Systems are zoned so one system functions for upstairs, and one system functions for downstairs, for maximum efficiency, including smart thermostats. 10-year warranty is also transferable.
