Peaceful and serene are the words that come to mind when entering the majestic gates of 701 Polo Club Drive. As you drive into the property, you are surrounded by large oaks and blooming crepe myrtles that line the winding drive. Upon entry, you will notice the careful attention to detail, superb craftsmanship, and pride of ownership this home exudes. This mainly single-story home has been lovingly cared for over the years.

The entry vestibule sets the stage for the remainder of the home with beautiful wood beams and natural stone details. The main living room features hand scraped pecan wood flooring, which is found throughout the main level of the home, wood-beamed ceilings, a cozy stone fireplace, and custom-crafted cabinetry. The living room is open to what is perhaps the hub of the home. It features custom cabinetry, double granite islands, two sinks, Thermador double ovens, a warming drawer, a six-burner gas cooktop, a paneled refrigerator, and a fabulous spacious walk-in pantry with built-ins. The breakfast room is full of light and overlooks the pool and vast yard.

The butler’s pantry includes another sink, wine refrigerator, and glass storage. The formal dining is perfect for entertaining, with walls of windows, wood beams, an iron chandelier, and built-in china storage.

The house is broken into two wings; the primary wing includes a private study with built-in custom bookshelves. The main primary is spacious and has wood-beamed ceilings and direct access to the covered patio and pool area. The primary bathroom features double sinks with granite countertops, separate vanity, a whirlpool soaking tub, a separate shower, a sitting room or perhaps exercise room, and a large walk-in closet with custom built-ins for storage.

The secondary wing has a main level game room directly off the kitchen, three additional bedrooms, one with an en-suite bath, and the other two bedrooms have a shared bath, but each with a private sink. One of the bedrooms is ADA compliant and has its own private terrace with a fountain. A pool bath that also serves as a guest bath is also located in this wing of the home.

The laundry room is perfectly sized, with plenty of custom cabinetry, hanging space, sink, and room for a secondary refrigerator. The mudroom is outfitted with built-in lockers and a planning center. The oversized three-car garage is beautifully equipped with a finished floor and additional storage. As a bonus, an additional room is located on the upper level, which would make a perfect media room. Storage is plentiful throughout the home. There are several walk-in closets with built-in shelving and a large walk-in cedar closet for winter storage.

The home sits on over 2.5 acres of completely fenced and manicured land. The exterior of the house is just as exciting as the interior and features a covered terrace with a built-in outdoor kitchen with grill station and sink, automatic sunshades, a tranquil pool with water features and spa, and plenty of hardscape for entertaining. The pool is separately fenced from the remainder of the property, which includes disc golf, a labyrinth for meditation, a gardening area, and a multitude of freshly planted trees mixed with old-growth oaks. The property even has a 400-amp generator that can run the entire home.

Located within the gates of the prestigious Polo Club community, the new owner will enjoy the perks of this sought-after neighborhood. This property allows up to two horses and is located directly across the street from community fishing ponds; the famous equestrian center is also located within close distance to the home. For the non-equestrian, the Polo Club also features a first-class tennis club and fitness center. Exemplary Dripping Springs Schools.
