844 Marquise

Description

Set among the rolling hills of Boerne, a stately stone manor rises beneath majestic oaks, where timeless architecture and sweeping Hill Country views create an extraordinary sense of arrival. Nestled on 10.81 acres within the gated Diamond Ridge community, the estate enjoys a secluded cul-de-sac setting with its own private gated entrance. Terraced stone walls descend toward expansive lawns, while mature oaks frame the surrounding landscape, creating a setting that feels worlds away yet remains close to the conveniences of Boerne. For those who appreciate the equestrian lifestyle, Diamond Ridge allows horses, and the property's generous acreage offers an ideal setting for a future barn and pasture. With room to create a private equestrian retreat, the estate offers the opportunity to enjoy horses at home while remaining within an established luxury community. As you cross the threshold of the arched front door, your eye follows the stone staircase spiraling overhead beneath a wrought iron chandelier. The entirety of the home carries that same stately sense of elegance. Built in 2009, this 5,716-square-foot residence offers five bedrooms, five bathrooms, a private study, three living spaces, and an attached three-car garage. Located within Boerne ISD, the property combines the appeal of an expansive Hill Country estate with access to the area's established school district. Mornings begin slowly on the covered patio, where sunlight illuminates the surrounding hillsides and the peaceful setting offers a sense of seclusion rarely found within a neighborhood. Inside, thoughtfully designed living spaces provide room for both quiet moments and everyday gatherings. Afternoons unfold on the stone terrace as the sun drops behind the oaks and the hills turn gold. Your day flows where you will it-remaining outdoors to soak in the last of the daylight or moving inside to gather around the cast stone fireplace in the living room, where tall windows frame the surrounding landscape. This home was designed for entertaining in every phase of life. The kitchen features a generous island, double ovens, and custom cabinetry, creating a welcoming space for preparing meals and hosting guests. Formal gatherings find their place in the nearby dining room, while three distinct living spaces offer flexibility for entertaining, relaxing, or spending time with family and friends. Your evening ends in the main-level primary suite-a private retreat complete with its own fireplace, sitting area, direct outdoor access, and a spa-style bath featuring a soaking tub and separate shower. Life in Diamond Ridge extends beyond the private gates of the estate. Residents enjoy access to tennis courts, sports courts, a fishing pond, and a pavilion with a barbecue area, offering opportunities for recreation and gathering with neighbors while preserving the peaceful character of the community. Some homes offer luxury. Others offer land, privacy, and the freedom to embrace a country lifestyle. Hill Country Manor brings them together. Tucked away at the end of a cul-de-sac, behind two gated entrances and surrounded by 10.81 acres of beautiful Hill Country landscape, this exceptional property offers the rare combination of architectural elegance, space, security, and seclusion-with the added potential to create your own equestrian haven. Come experience the setting, the views, and the unmistakable feeling of having a Hill Country estate entirely your own.
