Today’s massive estate in San Antonio, Texas was designed to suit a discerning owner. Spanning more than 11,200 square feet, master craftsmen created every option available for living, dining, entertaining, working and relaxing on a large or intimate scale.
Carefully selected materials, including Venetian plaster walls, limestone mouldings, handscraped oak floors, casement windows and additional unique features are on brilliant display throughout the floor plan.
The formal dining room is an elegant, yet comfortable space for hosting dinner parties and the study is a quiet retreat for collecting your thoughts. Multiple sets of French doors foster an idyllic indoor-outdoor lifestyle in the great room with a soaring coffered ceiling, hand-blown Venetian lighting and a wet bar – ensuring a beverage is always at your fingertips.
An exercise room, home theater, wine room, and walk-in safe by American Security create an enviable at-home experience.
The master bedroom provides an escape from the hustle and bustle of the modern world, while marble floors and features provide a sense of glamour to each of the baths.
Outdoors, the manicured grounds designed by award-winning landscape architect, John S. Troy, unveil themselves across three quarters of an acre. Soothing sounds from the glorious pool`s many water features rival the peace and serenity of a resort. Sun-drenched patios contrast against manicured gardens and vivid turquoise waters that dance across hand-laid mosaic tiles.
This sumptuous mansion is listed for $6.95 million with Phyllis Browning Company and is showcased by Luxury Portfolio.
