Evoking the charm of a New Orleans courtyard residence, this distinctive home in Tanglewood’s gated Pine Briar pairs timeless architecture with thoughtful updates. A handsome brick façade and intricate ironwork introduce high ceilings, hardwood floors, French doors and finely detailed millwork, complemented by the modern convenience of a Savant system. At the heart of the home, a secluded courtyard with a pool and dramatic tiled wall fountain offers an enchanting setting for relaxing and entertaining. Custom cabinetry and marble countertops distinguish the updated kitchen, which opens seamlessly to the family room. Upstairs, a study with a fireplace rests just off the staircase, before the entrance to the primary suite. The primary retreat features soaring ceilings, a fireplace and dual baths. Two secondary bedrooms each offer an en suite bath for comfort and privacy. A separate spiral staircase leads to a spacious 3rd-floor gameroom, completing this thoughtfully appointed residence.
