A beautiful drive to the place once known as the Rainbow Iris Farm will take you to the edge of nowhere and the center of life all at once. You are met with limestone and pipe entrance with an automatic entry gate that opens to a fully paved driveway, lined by mature single trunk crape myrtles trees. The drive ends at a lush garden of irises, cannas, lilies, and poppies that sits before a wide front porch, floored with limestone so aged it is speckled with fossils. Through the custom cedar front door are a living and dining room, under a vaulted cedar beam ceiling, so light and bright it’s hard to imagine what stood here before was a simple two-story wood sided house affectionately known as Aunt Mary’s Place. Today the +/- 2850 square foot single story home has four bedrooms, three full bathrooms, two living areas, two dining area, an office space, a laundry room, and a newly renovated open kitchen. Charming farmhouse elements throughout the home are paired with modern updates that make the space warm and practical – perfect for gathering and memory making. Ample natural light throughout the space makes this an ideal rural retreat.

Out back and across the grounds, old meets new in the most magical way – a well and concrete horse trough dating back to 1935, two wind turbines neighboring a coop that is home to nine chickens, a storm shelter fit for the prairie lands, an expansive patio adjoining a pool with adjacent gazebo and covered deck. Star gazing, summer reading, pool lounging, coyote howl listening, nature strolling, and sunset viewing are inherently a way of life here.

Everything you need is just a quick drive away - less than 15 minutes to Jarrell, 15 minutes to Salado, 25 minutes to Georgetown, and less than an hour away from Central Austin.
