The House

Built by Leon and Peggy Bandy as a weekend home. Leon referred to the entire estate as “Dripping Springs”. Back then, the gardens were considered way out in the country because they had not been developed yet. The Bandy’s use to have a Great Dane that would nap on this same dirt road, now called Anglin Drive.

The home was a mixture of indoor/outdoor living spaces. Leon and Peggy loved to be outside and entertain guests. The couple did not have any kids. Many people say that the estate was their baby. Years later, when the property was purchased by the Vitek’s, immense reconstruction occurred on the home to accommodate their 6 kids.

When Leon and Peggy Bandy lived in the home, Christmas was not taken lightly. Cars would line up all the way down Anglin to view Mr. Bandy's extensive Christmas decor. From the loud Christmas music to the bright lights, many families made visiting the Bandy home a holiday tradition every year.
