Perched high above the Llano River, an architectural masterpiece by Ted Flato
blends beautifully with the landscape of the Texas Hill Country. The ranch
house is prominently situated on a bluff to take advantage of the magnificent
360-degree views. Built in 1992, the 2,000-square-foot house features an octagonal
pavilion for the living and dining areas with a kitchen that connects to the spine
of the house, which includes three bedrooms and three and one-half baths. A
long, arching entry porch runs the length of the bedroom wing. Limestone col-

and connecting the inhabitants to their environment.
