Property Description
Price reduced to $749,000 + $10,000 seller concession through September 25! Five-star energy rated with solar panels, 534 Old McDade Road is a truly unique six-acre property combining innovative design, energy efficiency, and peaceful country living just minutes from downtown Elgin. Thoughtfully designed with flexibility and multi-generational living in mind, this one-of-a-kind property offers exceptional space and versatility. The light-filled home features locally sourced Central Texas materials, 10-foot ceilings, warm pecan wood accents, expansive motorized windows and doors, and abundant natural light. The primary suite is a private retreat with automated shades and direct access to a spa-inspired outdoor bathing area with an open-air tub and shower. The primary bath features marble countertops and dual shower systems with independent controls. Thoughtful pet-friendly features include lockable dog and cat doors, a dedicated water valve on the covered porch, and soundproof windows. Upstairs, a dramatic catwalk with built-in bookshelves creates a striking architectural feature, while each secondary bedroom has its own independent HVAC system. The six-acre property offers room to live, work, and create, with a built-in play area, a two-story 1,400-square-foot workshop with potential for rental income, and a charming Victorian home ready to be reimagined as an ADU, guest house, or artists' studio. A rare opportunity to own a property that combines architectural character, energy-conscious living, acreage, and incredible versatility.
