Careful attention to every detail creates an aura of casual, Old World elegance that is announced immediately upon arrival to this spectacular property.  Every appointment speaks of distinction and luxury - from the unique, hand-cut beveled stone tile with mosaic, to the custom Italian and French inspired cabinetry that is finished with a six step glazing technique, and from the long plank, hand-scraped oak flooring, to the negative edge pool with fountains and iridescent mosaic tile.

Lower Level Highlights

 

The magnificent owner’s suite features a master bedroom with golf and Hill Country views, vaulted ceilings, an exquisite raised-hearth, French style stone fireplace and a well-proportioned sitting area with access to the covered terrace.  The expansive master bathroom includes a round, 6’ diameter Jacuzzi bathtub, his & hers vanities and plenty of room for a massage table. The adjacent exercise room enjoys spectacular views, built-in cabinetry and a refrigerator.  The generous master closet- in excess of 700 square feet- includes more than 150 linear feet of antique finish cabinetry with a packing island and full-height, 3-way mirror, and a private entry from the garage.

 

Formal entertaining occurs in the dining & living rooms, with their hand chiseled stone flooring and hewn ceiling beams.  The focal point of the living room is a stunning Italian inspired stone fireplace, complimented by flanking custom cabinetry.  A butler’s bar adjacent to the dining room provides easy access to cocktails and hors d’oeuvres.  Completing the formal entertaining area is a wine cellar and a full catering kitchen with chef’s oven 48” refrigerator, dishwasher and additional pantry storage.

 

Casual socializing takes place in the entertainment WING, a more rustic setting offering every amenity.  Stone walls, heavy oak plank flooring, 2-story vaulted, beamed ceilings, an entertainer’s bar and a massive stone fireplace provide an ideal environment for shooting billiards, viewing movies or a big game, sampling wine or just watching embers burn low in the fireplace.  A large game room and card area, and a full bath that opens to the pool complete the casual entertaining area.

 

The heart of the home is the kitchen, which opens to an expansive family room and a cozy, circular breakfast area with a wall of windows overlooking the negative edge pool.  The kitchen features Rohl fixtures and Wolf appliances, a luxuriously long, custom built island with a deep profile granite countertop, and a walk in pantry.  The warm and inviting family room enjoys floor-to-ceiling custom cabinetry, a hearty stone fireplace and stone flooring.

 

COMPLETING THE Lower level are the secondary master suite and nanny suite- each finished with the quality standards provided throughout the property, a library with concealed access to the computer room via a hinged bookcase, a powder room with a spectacular marble fountain-style sink, two mud rooms with custom cabinetry, a convenient planning center with a built-in desk and storage, and the utility room/catering kitchen.

 

THE UPPER LEVEL of the home is just as exquisite as the lower level, with three generously sized bedrooms each with unique and meticulously finished en-suite baths, study/computer room with custom desks and cabinetry, media/gamer room with wet-bar, additional half bath, and substantial covered terrace all overlooking amazing sunset views.

 

THE OUTDOOR areas are amazing, with two levels of covered terraces all with golf course and hill country views, outdoor fireplace, outdoor kitchen, 4 pools with spa, waterfalls, grotto, slide, and fire pit.  The acreage is completely fenced and gated and features .25 miles of walking trails.
