This stunning East Hill waterfront home on Bayou Texar sets the standard for elegance and luxury! From the private drive, Italian influenced stucco exterior and slate roof, to the back balcony with concrete balustrades that overlook the bayou and heated swimming pool, the custom details throughout distinguish this home from all others. A custom build by developers Allan and Teri Levin in 1996, the house is designed for a family's comfort and ease in entertaining. The understated beauty, a sophisticated paint palette, extensive crown molding, high ceilings and designer window treatments used throughout only enhance the quality of the design. Entering the foyer, a dramatic stone staircase with a custom design metal railing from Brownsville Welding is a focal point that delineates the study/library on the right from the living/dining area with bayou views. The library/study has custom dark wood cabinetry, great space and welcome window light. The versatility of the open floor plan would allow for the dining space to be in any one of three areas. The sitting room has access to a wet bar, triple crown molding, built in cabinetry and generous seating space is adjacent to the dining area. With a ceiling that vaults to 22' and floor to ceiling Anderson windows facing the water, dining is a true pleasure. The large chef's kitchen has stainless appliances, including a 6 burner gas Thermador stovetop, Subzero refrigerator, double ovens, a true walk in pantry, and oversized island with prep sink. The granite countertops are a true complement to the custom chocolate washed cabinets. The kitchen opens to a family room with a second gas fireplace, large bay windows and incredible views. The large master bedroom, with trey ceiling, two oversized walk in closets is also facing the water. French doors lead to the balcony and heated swimming pool. The master bath features travertine, double vanity areas, separate shower and garden tub and sets the stage for a relaxation. Upstairs, the three additional bedrooms are large, light and bright with windows and each has a full bath. These baths are spacious and beautifully finished in custom stone work. There is a large finished bonus/media room with full kitchen, extensive wall storage and is plumbed for an additional bath. Play music or movies as loud as you wish, the room has been totally soundproofed! This wonderful upstairs space has a back stairway that accesses the kitchen, laundry area, as well as a private entrance. For an in-law/nanny suite, set-up space for catering or entertaining large groups, this is the perfect design. Storage should never be an issue with the extensive cabinets and closets on every level, and the wall length storage space on each side of the media room, as well as the huge garage. The breath taking waterfront views, a private dock with 25,000 lb boat lift, and the multi level terrace and balconies take advantage of the location and privacy this home provides. Additional features include, plantation shutters for the entire house, a gym and exercise room, surround sound by All Pro Sound, professional landscaping, a Citroen termite system and numerous architectural details, upgrades and features that will catch your eye. This is a house you must see and visit to fully appreciate the quality of workmanship and lifestyle it will provide.
