Enjoying fantastic privacy, this exquisite, 4,400+ square foot, custom home is nestled under mature trees and surrounded by nature with soaring ceilings and abundant windows allowing its carefully crafted and thoughtfully designed interiors to be bathed in natural light. In the center of the circular drive, a four-tier fountain enhances the natural symphony of this outdoor oasis.
A stunning view entering this secluded lush and wooded property within the close-knit community of High Meadow Ranch-encompassing hundreds of acres filled with friendly neighbors, remarkable wildlife and nature preserve. A private paradise.
This enchanting entrance welcomes guests. Architectural details like leaded transom windows, wood shutters and this custom courtyard surrounded by an antique wrought iron fence, enhance the warm and inviting feeling the home exudes.
The walls of windows and doors allow a direct line of sight upon entrance through the entire house to the lush flower gardens, serene backyard and mature trees.
The open and airy foyer showcases several consistent architectural features found throughout such as arched doorways, niches, transom windows and reclaimed wood floors with an oiled finish.
This private study is located just off the formal entry and features soaring built-in display cabinetry with convenient storage painted in this rich, bold hue. Plantation shutters finish the space and provide privacy without obstructing the ample natural light and scenic view.
Sunlight pours in through the French Doors, transoms and windows. Three custom-designed, insulated, leaded transoms float above at the 16' ceiling in the expansive formal dining room. This room will accommodate even the largest of dinner parties and holiday meals with lovely views of the courtyard.
Three 11' cast-stone columns define the dining room, illuminated beneath the glimmer of the custom-made wrought iron chandelier and wall sconces. The rich, antique wood floors flow throughout the common areas of the first level, salvaged from a tobacco barn and finished with European Hard Oil. They were installed on a concrete slab that was prepared with a tar sealant which acts as a moisture barrier, a screed to provide a smooth, level surface and plywood as a stable base on which to attach the wood.
The cast-stone fireplace anchors the main living area and provides a beautiful focal point to this open and inviting space. A built-in entertainment center disguises the television and provides a charming backdrop to display cherished possessions.
The French doors and wall of windows afford stunning views and provide effortless access to the covered veranda, patio and summer kitchen, overlooking the private and secluded acreage. The cast-stone mantle and granite hearth beautifully surround the crackling fireplace, enhancing the warm and intimate feeling of this spacious room.
The formal dining room has direct access to this butler's pantry and the chef's kitchen for effortless serving and entertaining. This convenient space features glass-front display cabinetry, under-cabinet lighting and storage for less often used prized serving dishes.
The heart of every home, this generously-sized gourmet kitchen features state of the art appliances including a Viking gas stove, SubZero refrigerator and freezer clad in custom wood panels and hardware, KitchenAid dishwasher and gas ovens, as well as a U Line ice machine with custom wood panel. The wide window perched above the kitchen sink offers an enchanting view of the grounds, making even mundane tasks like dishwashing, serene.
Cast-stone corbels with custom-made wrought iron supports disguise the ventilation system for the Viking gas cooktop. Glass front display cabinets, under-cabinet lighting and exposed ceiling beams add character to this inviting space. A substantial island painted a bold, dark tone provides contrast to the warm wood cabinets and features a breakfast bar on the end from which to entertain the chef.
Nestled just behind the stone archway upon passage to the breakfast area is a phone desk, providing an area to keep daily mail and clutter contained and organized or from which to make your daily calls. All cabinetry in this home is custom crafted of the finest quality wood. Character is abundant throughout with architectural details and custom created hardware.
A 20' stone archway divides the formal living and dining rooms from the breakfast room and kitchen. An oversized transom within the stone helps maintain the openness of this space.
This enchanting powder bathroom boasts character. Charming sconces, wallpaper and classic, sophisticated brass hardware exude style.
A serene space to begin each day, the primary bedroom suite boasts a stunning view of the natural landscape through the shuttered windows. This expansive retreat is secluded to its own wing of the house, ensuring privacy for homeowners as well as guests.
This luxurious primary bathroom provides abundant counter and cabinet space for storing lotions and potions. Classic granite counters and warm travertine tile flooring are accented with bronze hardware and Rohl faucets for a timeless finish.
Dual vanities, dual showerheads and even dual water closets (toilets) eliminate the need to negotiate with your partner for coveted storage space and provide additional privacy! Complete with full length mirror for perfect grooming.
This deep, air jetted tub is surrounded by travertine basket weave accent tile and granite tub deck. A tub-filling faucet combined with a hand shower makes it both relaxing and convenient to bathe or clean. A gleaming chandelier above provides accent lighting for a relaxing bubble bath. The open and bright walk-in shower is nestled under the arched window with no shower door to clean.
The walk-in shower in the primary suite is encompassed in travertine tile with a porcelain tiled floor and illuminated by a crystal chandelier. Dual shower heads saturate while a heat lamp protects from any chilly draft!
The primary closet was intentionally designed for optimal storage capacity and organization. Windows provide natural light in a traditionally dark space. Clothing, shoes and accessories have designated spaces within the custom shelves, drawers and rods. Top closet pull down rods ensure vertical space is not wasted.
This well-appointed laundry room provides ample storage cabinets and drawers as well as a full-size porcelain sink which helps to make household management less of a chore. A hidden laundry shoot from the primary bath is also a plus!
A convenient mud area near the garage entrance features direct access to the outdoors. Tiled countertop, 13" deep sink and storage cabinetry make this area a durable transition space to clean up or contain exterior elements before stepping into the heart of the home.
The second powder bath on the first level of the home is conveniently located near the hard working mud room and kitchen.
This generously-sized guest bedroom on the first floor serves the homeowners as a second home office. A large picture window provides a glorious view of the grounds. Discreetly hidden in its closet is a Hayman Magna safe to hold any important documents and valuables, securely bolted to the slab.
The secondary first floor bedroom en-suite bath features charming wallpaper for an old world feel with a modern glass tub/shower enclosure. The delicate window shutters allow natural light to stream in but can be closed when privacy is desired.
The sprawling second floor is spacious and flows effortlessly between the game room, additional family room on the second level and the upstairs bedroom en-suite. The balcony overlooks the main first floor living room below and allows light to stream in from both sides of the home. The sturdy railing lining the balcony and staircase is supported by carefully selected and imported French forged natural blued iron spindles.
Spectacular view of the treetops from the balcony overseeing breakfast area with its soaring 20' ceiling, closely approaching the beautiful, custom-designed, insulated leaded-glass transoms. The view extends through the stone transom into the living room, emphasizing the home's grandeur.
This large picture window provides a spectacular view of the property and allows natural light to illuminate this second floor living area. Plush carpeting provides a soft spot for relaxation.
This spacious third bedroom suite boasts soaring ceilings and an unobstructed, panoramic view of nature through the floor to ceiling windows. Elegant blackout draperies facilitate both sleeping-in and privacy, ensuring guests are comfortable.
This delightful full bath services the secondary bedroom and second floor living areas. Soft and delicately striped wallpaper adds appeal. The glass shower enclosure sits atop a cast iron bathtub.
On the second level, a large game room features charming dormer windows accented with storage benches. This room could be divided to make additional bedrooms or utilized for a variety of purposes such as a play room, fitness studio or craft room.
Lush natural landscape and gardens surround this idyllic home. The English flower garden is nestled beside a garden of lilies contained within an iron fence. Nearby in the backyard is a dense stand of wild violets which are striking in bloom and a vegetable garden can be found on the north side of the property. All growing among the beautiful native landscape just steps from the home.
The outdoor living space extends the square footage of this estate further and provides the perfect place to enjoy the serenity of nature. The back porch boasts a soaring 22' vaulted, tongue and groove ceiling and the cedar pergola features wall-mounted oscillating fans to provide respite from the Texas heat. The slate tile floor, with its natural patina, enhances the peaceful, natural surroundings.
The extended veranda is supported with magnificent 8"x8" cedar columns. The summer kitchen features a built-in gas grill and beverage refrigerator within the granite topped bar to make entertaining guests or grilling for two effortless and convenient. A stunning pine armoire perched discreetly at the end of the veranda provides storage.
This large half-acre backyard is surrounded by a sturdy, but charming, 3 rail equestrian fence. Double fenced for reinforcement, it features wire mesh fencing to protect small dogs from escaping. This lush, green grass, as well as private nature trails, extend throughout the property and into the 15+acres of natural wilderness filled with wildlife.
Lined with lush greenery, climbing vines and decorative trellises, this inviting pathway leads to a private, fenced section of the property and creates a peaceful transition between the home and the expansive outdoor areas. The owners hand-placed cobblestones on the pathways throughout the property enhancing its distinctive, old-world charm.
Cedar timber columns accent the exterior of the home much like the towering trees accent the surrounding landscape of the property. On the industrious 3-car garage, they support the overhang to provide respite from the weather. Three durable wood doors with ultra-quiet Marantec garage door openers diligently open and close without disturbing even the ambling deer.
The equestrian barn is over 2,500 square feet with an additional 547 sqft of loft storage space. The horses even have their own pantry with the 12'x24' enclosed hay storage. Additional covered storage bays for both hay and equipment are located alongside the barn. Huge, custom iron gates mark the impressive entrance to the front of the barn. A durable, industrial roll-up door makes for total security.
An impressive crushed granite driveway leads down to the barn. A grand entrance marked by the towering covered patio extending 36' wide and 12' deep commands attention. Just like the residence, this barn was built to withstand up to 190mph winds. It is powered by its own 200 amp electrical box providing electricity and light to the interiors. Multiple skylights help keep the horses on their natural sleep schedules and provide additional natural light.
This spacious wash bay conveniently located across from the 5 stalls provides a safe and comfortable place for washing, grooming and veterinary "barn calls." The skylights provide necessary natural light.
Each of the five individual horse stalls measure 12'x12' with a hard, natural clay foundation topped with sand and rubber mats providing a comfortable place for standing as well as sleeping. The JW Hall stall system and doors are hot dipped galvanized steel with solid round bars and tongue and groove lumber designed to withstand even the wildest horses.
A spacious and convenient living area multitasks as a coveted tack room and features a half bath. This versatile space keeps all the essential riding equipment like saddles and bridles organized and within reach.
Charming Dutch doors allow fresh air to circulate in the stall and barn and enable the horses to socialize with one another when inside the stall. Split rail fencing for turnout provides plenty of space for grazing, riding and socializing as well.
A 5-acre green pasture protected by a fence with low-maintenance, HorseGuard electric fencing, safely confines all types of horses and brings homeowners peace of mind. This picturesque landscape is enveloped by acres of mature trees offering a private and secluded paradise. The horses can enjoy freely grazing and splashing in the pond.
Private nature trails allow uninhibited exploration of this enchanting property and even diverge beyond the property boundaries into the rolling landscape of the family-friendly community. The trailhead is marked by this livestock gate.
The amazing grounds of this private oasis offer breathtaking views, a tranquil 3/4-acre, spring-fed pond edged with hundreds of irises, and a meandering creek with nature trails, lush gardens and rolling pastures. This private land is perfect for nature lovers, horse enthusiasts or adventurers.
The live creek near the back of the property flows with water seasonally each year. It is a must to explore the property on its private nature trails and see every inch of this 15+ acre wonderland.
This estate has been meticulously cared for by the family who carefully selected and designed each intriguing aspect of it. It features a 280' deep water well, generator and a newer second floor AC (2022). The roof was replaced in 2020 with custom tile ridge rows over the ridge vents. A grandfathered timber exemption provides significant savings in taxes each year.
