Property Description

Discover this rare and enchanting 5-acre gated estate that is so bucolic and so private yet just minutes from the Domain, Apple, and Texas Children’s Hospital. Located among other estate-sized properties, the site enjoys minimal traffic and an idyllic calm. Bull Creek winds calmly through the property’s native prairie grass meadow, a flat plain that could be perfect for a private playing field or place for a small barn. This “creek-side jewel in the woods” is host to an impressive bluff-top European-influenced residence with graceful columns, magnificent arches, and tall bay windows, all within a natural setting overlooking a year-round pool. The 4,088 sq ft custom-designed home features a limestone exterior, standing seam metal roof, and handsome, expansive windows that flood the interior with light. Inside, an imaginative composition of spaces provides for a casual yet elegant lifestyle. The primary suite includes a generous bedroom with fireplace, wet bar, and vaulted ceiling, as well as a luxurious bath with private walled garden and 3 capacious walk-in closets. The sunken living room, with its soaring ceiling, contrasts with the intimate library, an octagonal space lined with bookshelves that was inspired by a royal forest hunting lodge in Austria. The large great room, located by the bright and spacious kitchen, features a grand stone fireplace and a beamed, vaulted ceiling. Upstairs, a game room adjoins the third bedroom suite and leads to a surprise secret passage between floors! The broad deck stretching across the back of the house provides lovely views out to this extensive 5-acre parcel that reaches across Bull Creek and into the hills beyond. Come see why this quiet estate is such a truly unique haven. It’s simply fabulous!
