$869,000 - 407 Pioneer Trail, San Marcos

Tucked away on 5.1 scenic acres in San Marcos, this Hill Country home offers space, versatility, and views that truly have to be experienced in person. A full-size ELEVATOR makes the house operate comparable to a single-story home. The upper back deck captures sweeping panoramic scenery — far more stunning than photos can convey — creating the perfect setting to relax and unwind. The multi-level layout provides both connection and separation of space. Upstairs, the main living area flows seamlessly into the dining space and kitchen, creating an open and inviting atmosphere for gathering. This level also includes two bedrooms and two full bathrooms. Downstairs, you’ll find a cozy second living room ideal for movie nights or quiet evenings, along with a guest bedroom, full bathroom, laundry room, and direct access to the garage. A distinctive brick-surrounded interior room — currently used as a craft space — offers incredible flexibility and could easily serve as a studio, hobby room, office, or potential fourth bedroom conversion. The spacious primary suite features an oversized walk-in closet with abundant storage and a private elevator providing convenient access directly to the garage — a thoughtful feature for transporting groceries or simplifying day-to-day living. Outside, a charming attached greenhouse connects to a workshop space that could easily function as a home office or creative retreat. The property also features two rainwater collection systems (including one with a 750-gallon capacity), a salt-free water softener, and reverse osmosis filtration in the kitchen. With 3 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms, 2 living areas, flexible bonus space, and peaceful acreage with breathtaking views, this is a home full of character, function, and Hill Country charm.
