AN ARCHITECTURALLY TIMELESS HOME IN TEXAS 

An architecturally timeless home that has been recently and extensively remodeled and which sits on an oversized 75x150 lot close to Turtle Creek and Goar Park, and located in the desirable Armstrong Elementary attendance zone. You are welcomed to the home through double bubble-glass French doors into a light-filled, gracious, and large entry hall opening to the grand staircase up to the second floor. Adjoining the entry hall are oversized formals on either side, including the living room with custom designed Ann Sachs mosaic tile work around the wood-burning fireplace with gas logs.

The eat-in kitchen and casual living spaces are to the rear of the entry. There are French doors from the casual spaces to the sparkling pool and patio areas. The eat-in kitchen is a cook’s dream with soapstone and Carrere marble counters, custom cherry cabinets with glass inserts, two dishwashers, double Thermador ovens, warming drawer, built-in microwave, built-in Miele espresso maker, and accented with custom Ann Sachs tile work. The kitchen is supported by a walk-in pantry with secondary stackable washer/dryer area. Off the kitchen in a specially made “dog room”, which closes off and includes many cute dog features that any pampered pet will appreciate, including a separate air filter/fan, water spigot and drain.

For those without pets, this space would make an excellent home office. There is a butler’s pantry between the kitchen and dining room. Behind the spacious living room is a cherry-paneled library with in-laid wood floors, an antique metal mantle surrounding the second wood-burning fireplace with gas logs, French doors to the pool area and full bath. The library leads to the handsome wet bar with ice maker, wine cooler and bar space, also with in-laid wood. Upstairs the master suite overlooks the rear grounds and includes a beautifully remodeled master bath area with Ann Sachs tile, his and her baths and vanities and large master closet. There is also a small study area off the master which may be closed off, and a secondary master closet.

Additional second floor rooms include three additional bedrooms, each with its own bath, a large exercise room and game/media room with surround sound and full bath, and a large utility room with washer/dryer. There are back stairs from the utility area down to the three car garage and mud-room area. Additional amenities and updates include the wonderful and open layout, large side yard separate from the pool, large enough for play equipment, custom millwork and stained glass, replacement of the majority of windows, updates to the kitchen and all baths, specialty lighting, three fireplaces, four living spaces, and pool area with protective removable child gates, child’ swim area, spa, fountains and a shallow sunning area. This is an exemplary home in a stellar location.
