Recreated "idea house" in Austin Tx in SOUTHERN LIVING MAGAZINE. As soon as you drive up to the gate, you are welcomed by meticulously manicured Oak Trees, circle drive and lavish landscaping. The grand stone covered entry with massive entry doors is attached to a covered terrace. This entire area has glass architectural double doors for insane views. These doors are paralleled on the back side of the home to have a complete open setting if all doors are open. The entry is solid stone interior walls with a grand vaulted ceiling. The left side of the entry has a large vaulted ceiling study lined with book shelves. The master suite is set apart from the home with an outside sitting porch open to the pool courtyard. Between the study and the master bedroom retreat is a full bathroom. To the right of the grand stone foyer is a gallery with 3 double architectural glass doors open to the formal living room with a stone fireplace and a formal dining room complete with high ceiling throughout. The gallery leads to the breakfast room with two sides windows with a beautiful view of the pool and backyard, along with the family room and gourmet kitchen. The Family room also has a large stone fireplace and is open to the kitchen. The kitchen has a 6 burner gas stove, island, walk in pantry, extra large sink and breakfast bar area. Two bedrooms are off on the right side of the home with a jack and Jill bathroom and large walk in closets. The 4th bedroom has access to a full bathroom. Past the kitchen is a mud room entry to the garage and a hobby room/utility room with sink, cabinets and lots of countertops to work on projects. The home's backyard is centered around the pool with multiple covered patio areas. The pool is massive and has multiple steps for sitting and enjoying the water. Whether in the pool or on the patio, the view of the manicured Oak trees is stunning with the palms, magnolia trees (what Southern Living Home doesn't have a magnolia tree or two?), crepe myrtles, pampas grasses and pride of Barbados plants to name a few. The 7.85 acres has a large pond, massive Live Oak trees, manicured and fenced. There is plenty of room for nature trails and enjoyment. Property is fully fenced and incredibly beautiful.
