About the Property
Welcome to La Ventana—a gated, equestrian community where longhorns roam the pastures, neighbors gather under the oak trees, and the pace of life slows just enough to enjoy it. Nestled in the heart of Driftwood, this thoughtfully designed property combines Hill Country character with flexible living. Offering a single-story main home and a private guest apartment with its own entrance and living area—perfect for hosting, working, or creating space for whatever life brings.
Behind custom double Cantera doors, 1186 Ranchers Club Lane opens to a warm, welcoming interior with over 4,000 square feet of livable space. Quietly confident in its design, this home offers the kind of laid-back luxury that lives comfortably, day in and day out.
Comfort, Function & Hill Country Style
The main home includes three bedrooms, four full baths, and a dedicated office that feels like a retreat. With mesquite wood floors, a wood-burning fireplace, vaulted ceilings, and custom built-ins, it strikes the perfect balance between professional and personal—ideal for working from home, creative pursuits, or a quiet place to unplug.
Throughout the home, you'll find 10–12-foot ceilings, solid-core 8-foot doors, custom plantation shutters, and well-crafted cabinetry—subtle yet unmistakable signs of thoughtful design and quality construction.
At the center of the home is a kitchen built with serious intention, not just to impress but to perform. Outfitted with top-tier appliances and designed for ease of use, it's a space where form meets function in all the right ways. Wolf double ovens, a 6-burner cooktop with griddle and pot filler, and Sub-Zero refrigeration, including wine refrigeration and refrigeration drawers, bring commercial-grade capability to the everyday. A large granite island with a vegetable sink anchors the space, surrounded by extensive cabinetry, counter space, an ice machine, a warming drawer, and a trash compactor. Whether you're preparing a quiet dinner or hosting a full house, this kitchen is ready, well-appointed, well-organized, and fully integrated into the flow of the home.
Your Everyday Escape
The primary suite is a private retreat tucked away at the back of the home, with direct access to the patio and pool—perfect for early morning coffee or a quiet end to the day. The bedroom is spacious and serene, while the spa-like bath offers a large walk-in shower built for two, complete with dual showerheads and a rainwater feature. A deep jetted tub, dual vanities, and ample storage make daily routines feel anything but ordinary. A custom walk-in closet with thoughtfully designed cabinetry rounds out the space—elegant, functional, and generous in size.
Separate Guest Retreat with Private Entry
Tucked just above the garage with its own private entrance, this guest retreat offers a comfortable living space, bedroom, and full bath—an ideal setup for visitors, clients, creative projects, or quiet work. **It's a surprising and thoughtful addition you don't often see—flexible enough to adapt to your needs while offering a sense of separation without feeling disconnected from the main home. This space adds both privacy and possibility to an already well-designed layout.
Outdoor Living That Feels Right
Step into the backyard, and you'll find spaces designed to be used—not just admired. A heated pool and spa anchor the landscape framed by mature trees, and the layout invites quiet relaxation and easy gathering.
Just steps away, the outdoor kitchen pavilion offers more than a grill—it's a thoughtfully constructed, covered space for cooking and seamless entertaining. With a built-in grill, side burners, refrigerator, granite counters, and a ceiling fan, it functions as an open-air extension of the home. Shaded and sheltered, it blends into the surrounding landscape, creating a welcoming hub for weekend barbecues or evenings under the stars.
The nearby stone fireplace sets the tone for cozy conversations on cooler nights, making it a favorite gathering spot year-round.
A beautifully designed organic garden adds a grounded, sustainable touch. Using oya irrigation pots, the low-water system keeps soil naturally hydrated—an elegant, efficient way to grow herbs, vegetables, or flowers.
The iron-fenced yard ties it all together with soft tree uplighting, thoughtfully placed electrical outlets, and a small dog run tucked along the side—just enough space to keep pets happy and secure. A full pool bath with exterior access rounds out the space, making outdoor living feel effortless, comfortable, and complete.
