Sitting on five acres, this 8115 square foot, this one-story modern ranch home is luxurious and sexy, yet modern and minimalist. Desiring an open concept for entertaining and living, this home delivers the perfect combination of warmth and drama.  

Designed for a family that values connection, the outdoor living space is an anchor element that definitively informs the architecture and design of the entire home. The flooring material used for the indoor and outdoor spaces was styled in a uniform way to create continuity. The entire back wall of the home is a cascade of glass that opens to a large, covered patio area. Climate-controlled areas ensure that the full outdoor living and entertaining experience can be enjoyed year-round in the Texas countryside. Family members and guests can relax at the large island, the full dining table, bistro table, or in the sectional seating area centred around a gas fire pit. Other relaxation options include a queen size swing bed for lounging, four additional chair swings, and an additional indoor/outdoor area with another gas fire pit. Nearby, a gorgeous infinity edge pool surrounded by limestone and containing a large spa overlooks a fully lit lacrosse field. 

This home is made for entertaining, with another exceptional feature being the home bar and lounge. Desiring to have a place that no one else has, this home bar and lounge offers a great entertaining space with a super cool atmosphere. Located just inside the entry, the bar area is slightly obscured by a custom iron rod wall that allows others to see in, but not really experience the space until you enter from just around the corner. The board formed concrete wall creates great visual interest and a unique backdrop for the walnut wall unit that surrounds the back bar. Acrylic backlit wood art installation under the front sitting bar adds not only drama but a nice organic touch with the iron rods. Topped off with a custom ‘hot red’ sofa, this room is the perfect place to entertain.
