HILL COUNTRY SECLUSION Slip out the elegant French doors into the naked light of the sun or moon and ease into the waiting waters of the lap pool. Breathe in, gaze outward and be transported by the raw beauty of surrounding Hill Country woods and ridges. This one-acre-plus hideaway - with access to the 17th fairway of the Crystal Falls Golf Club - blends with nature and offers soul-restoring seclusion and serenity. This is a rare and wonderful find. PRIVATE COUNTRY ELEGANCE A magnificent iron front door opens to the spacious-yet-intimate living room with commanding Hill Country views that stretch the length of the room. The provincial limestone fireplace - with a hand-crafted Alderwood mantle - soars 14 feet and stands in harmony with the wooded landscape outside. Custom-made wine cabinetry and artifact shelving add to the room's warmth. Wall-space and room-layout throughout this home are thoughtfully designed to accentuate fine art collections. A showstopping wrought iron chandelier brings Old World-class and style to the casually sophisticated dining room. Similar chandeliers in the entry and breakfast room further infuse a nostalgic elegance. The cozy breakfast room and connoisseur's kitchen extend seamlessly from the living room and feature 10-foot ceilings, granite countertops, travertine floors and superior built-ins. An island with detailed Alderwood carvings is a stunning piece of furniture. High-end appliances include a Sub-Zero refrigerator, 6-burner Wolf stove and second electric oven. The kitchen further wows with gorgeous custom cabinetry, easy-to-slide drawers and a large walk-in pantry. Sunlight streams through curved windows that frame dazzling Hill Country views. The living, kitchen, patio and backyard areas are designed for entertaining and allow easy movement from the outside in. The master bedroom suite is privately tucked away, takes full advantage of outdoor views and has direct access to the pool. A custom tray ceiling adds dimension and beauty. The master spa features built-in cabinets, a never-before-used jet tub, a stand-alone shower, stone flooring, and abundant closet space with tailored shelving. Two main-level guest rooms are large with walk-in closets and connect with a Jack and Jill bath. Another guest half-bath showcases gorgeous arches, ravishing granite and a dramatic artistic sink. The laundry room features a sink, working table, and plentiful shelving and leads to a huge 3 ½ - car garage with custom cabinetry and tool racks. A tasteful, unobtrusive staircase rises to a secluded second floor - an ideal guest hideaway. An enormous great room includes a built-in wet bar and unobstructed views of the outdoors. A guest bedroom exudes charm and provides a perfect place to curl up with a book. A spacious "secret room" is completely hidden and accessed only by a special passageway. It's the ultimate private office, bedroom or media room. GROUNDS A luscious lap pool in the ever-so-private back yard overlooks lovingly landscaped grounds, upper and lower stone patios, and exquisite Hill Country views. An expansive covered back patio extends the length of the house. The acreage includes fragrant rose and flower gardens, an organic vegetable garden with a drip irrigation system, and an abundance of trees. Back and front yards have sprinkler systems. The extra-deep front yard is a graceful green expanse with a lovely circular drive. COMMUNITY This elegant country home is tucked into the desirable Grand Mesa gated community. It's a short drive to wineries, the picturesque Hill Country and the Highland Lakes. It also is convenient to upscale shopping, the light rail station for easy access to downtown Austin, and of course the Crystal Falls Golf Club.
