More than a home, 400 Hackberry St offers a lifestyle rooted in creativity, gathering, and meaningful experiences.
Known as The Art House, this one-of-a-kind property sits in the heart of Lockhart, Texas, blending over 4,000 square feet of flexible living space with a layout designed for hosting, creating, entertaining, and slowing down in all the right ways.
Originally reimagined by artist and curator Chad Rea, the home has served not only as a private residence, but also as a creative retreat, Airbnb destination, and gathering place for art events, live music evenings, pool gatherings, and long dinners shared with community. Designed around a U-shaped courtyard layout, nearly every room opens toward the pool, mature trees, and expansive outdoor spaces, creating an effortless indoor-outdoor rhythm throughout the property.
At each end of the home are independent spaces with private entrances, offering flexibility for guest suites, studio space, a home-based business, or short-term rental potential. Large gathering areas, multiple living spaces, and walls built for art make the property especially compelling for buyers seeking both versatility and personality.
Beyond the property itself, Lockhart continues to emerge as one of Central Texas’ most exciting creative communities. First Fridays, live music, local galleries, restaurants, wine bars, farmers markets, and a growing arts culture have transformed the historic downtown into a destination that feels vibrant, authentic, and deeply connected.
Located approximately 30 minutes from Austin, 25 minutes from Austin-Bergstrom International Airport, and within easy reach of San Marcos and Circuit of the Americas, 400 Hackberry St offers the rare combination of creative energy, accessibility, lifestyle, and space to build something meaningful.
