308 River Hills Dr Set on nearly half an acre in a peaceful, picturesque pocket of San Marcos, this thoughtfully designed home offers a rare blend of privacy, charm, and proximity. Just minutes from the San Marcos River, Texas State University, and vibrant downtown San Marcos, the setting feels delightfully tucked away-complete with a scenic, ranch-style approach to the neighborhood and the occasional sight of grazing cows on evening walks. Inside, the home is bright, cohesive, and carefully finished with luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout, fresh white paint, baseboards in every room, and striking black windows that add a modern edge. The open living area features vaulted ceilings accented by a dramatic wood beam, abundant LED can lighting, and matching ceiling fans that enhance both style and comfort. The kitchen is a true standout, offering a central island with seating, a mix of butcher block and quartz countertops for a custom look, stainless steel appliances including a KitchenAid 5-burner electric cooktop, and a charming breakfast nook with built-in storage. It's perfect for slow mornings or casual gatherings. Morning sunlight fills the kitchen, while evening light warms the front of the home, ideal for enjoying the covered back patio. A spacious laundry room with cabinetry, wooden shelving, and a sink adds everyday convenience, while a study tucked just off the laundry provides a quiet space for work or creativity. Three generous closets throughout the home offer excellent storage. The bathrooms are beautifully finished with tile extending to the ceiling, built-in niches, tile flooring, sleek walk-in showers with clear glass doors, and matte black plumbing and electrical fixtures for a clean, modern feel. The backyard with covered patio offers endless possibilities for outdoor enjoyment. This is a home where thoughtful details, generous space, and an unbeatable location come together to create a truly special San Marcos lifestyle.
