Book your next escape to the breathtaking Texas Hill Country at Henley— a cozy home for three that’s small on space but big on charm and comfort. Romantic and filled with unique character, you’ll have plenty of peaceful privacy, access to the Gladheart community amenities, and downtown Fredericksburg only 10 minutes away. Pack your bags and plan a true escape from the everyday hustle-bustle at Henley.
Henley is surrounded by a privacy fence and a manicured lawn. A small front porch includes comfy Adirondack chairs and a fire pit for relaxing in the evenings with a cocktail. The front yard also includes a bubbly hot tub for soaking the day away, a barbecue for grilling some juicy steaks for dinner, and a corn hole game for after-dinner game time.
Once inside, Henley has been designed to feel spacious and open, with lots of bright windows that allow the natural Texas sunshine to flow inside. White shiplap and honey-colored wood accents create a chic and stylish space. In the living area, a bright blue contemporary sofa adds the perfect pop of cheerful color, and a mounted HDTV allows you to host a fun movie night with a big bowl of buttery popcorn. The sofa can also be converted to a full-size bed.
In the galley kitchen, crisp white cabinets and glossy concrete countertops supply plenty of space to prepare meals and snacks. The kitchen includes an induction cooktop, a microwave oven, a dishwasher, a Keurig coffee maker, a drip coffee maker, and the cutest vintage-inspired refrigerator you’ve ever seen. Open shelving stores and display the dishware and glassware perfectly.
In the full bathroom, you’ll love the luxurious Carrera marble tiled shower, cute bowl sink, and West Elm cabinet. Upstairs is the modern loft bedroom, separated from the main living area by a custom, contemporary wood screen. A sumptuous king-size memory foam mattress and mounted HDTV create a perfect comfy nook for reading, relaxing, and enjoying a beautiful night’s sleep in the country.
Henley is nestled into the friendly countryside community of Gladheart, which is 13 beautiful acres that include a small pond and some friendly goats. The Gladheart compound includes a super-fun clubhouse/game room with a pool table, ping pong table, card tables, darts, and a jukebox. Outside you’ll also have access to picnic tables, shuffleboard, and horseshoes. When you’re ready for an afternoon antiquing adventure or a night on the town at a local watering hole, the fun of Fredericksburg is a quick ten-minute drive away. Gladheart has the feel of an exclusive Texas Hill Country resort with a laid-back luxury vibe.
Things to Note:
-There are outdoor cats on the property that you may encounter during your stay.
-In Texas, there are periods of time without significant rainfall causing the county of Gillespie to place a ban on burning. Please check the current burn ban status, before using the fire pit at a Fredericksburg area vacation rental.
- Utilize the designated parking spaces at your vacation rental.
-Place all trash in designated containers.
- Please be aware that the Texas Hill Country can experience high heat and drought during the summer, which can attract pests to the exterior lights at night. Our properties receive extermination, but guests may encounter pests such as cockroaches, mosquitoes, flies, Rolly Pollies (pill bugs), June bugs, small ants, and spiders, as well as occasional scorpions and small rodents. These are normal critters that come regardless of cleanliness or availability of food.
