Welcome to your private oasis where the pool and spa serve as the centerpiece, surrounded by open skies, lush acreage, and peaceful waterfront views. (Some added AI greenery)
Extraordinary Texas Estate that sits on 100 acres and features a breathtaking 4+ acre, 16' deep stocked pond, an almost 9400 sq. ft. home, a luxurious pool/spa and a 4-stall horse barn. The pond is fed by a 350 acre watershed. Outflow is over a concrete spillway. A concrete bridge passes over the inflow as part of the driveway to the house.
Enter the estate through the private gated entrance. There is a second gated entrance about 50 yards past this one on the same road. The paved drive winds through a wooded buffer which ensures your privacy. Ideal for a family estate or corporate retreat.
The home is surrounded by lush trees and beautiful landscaping to enjoy while relaxing by the luxury pool. The two pastures at the front of the property is planted in bahia and the pasture on the other side of the drive is in bahia/coastal mix.
Golden light spills across the lush backyard transformed into an intimate oasis, where a wedding unfolds beneath the fading hues of sunset. (AI generated)
Make your way down to the backyard oasis from the staircase that descends from the second story patio. This creates a seamless flow between elevated outdoor living and the resort-style backyard.
