At the end of Buckskin Road just past Boot Hill Road, you arrive at the security gate protecting one of the most exclusive and prestigious ranches in the Houston metro area. It was artistically and respectfully carved from a dense forested area, caressed by the Brazos River. The attention to detail is only found in ultra-high end luxury properties. This precision construction is provided by the owner, a nationally respected commercial and investment property developer.
Every detail was planned and executed with meticulous accuracy. The scrupulous execution spans from the steel structure to ultra-luxurious interior finishes in this massive Texas Hill Country Estate style home. Extensive dirt work provides multiple terraces protecting improvements with excellent drainage. Roads and bridges (yes, it has an industrial strength bridge) and systems (electrical, HVAC, security, etc.) provide an excellent foundation. Additional amenities include Equestrian facilities, garage with a potential helipad on its roof, and 87+ acres of grounds trials and wildlife.
This property is incredibly private by any standards, especially for the greater Houston area, with only one possible access road between meanders in the Brazos River.
Estate Grounds
As you approach the property and after entering the security gate, immediately to your right is a scenic vantage point with a walking path to a small private pond. On your left is the massive neighboring cattle ranch, providing an immediate escape from Houstons nearby global metropolis, to a Texas ranch lifestyle, sitting gracefully on the high side of the historic Brazos River.
As you continue driving for about a 10th of a mile, you come to a fork in the road and the massive Estate Compound comes into clear view.
If you take the fork to the right you follow a sweeping circlet through a grove of ancient oaks flanked by the 2 acre Lake Buckskin to your left. On the right you will find two covered horse stalls and a lighted working pen. As you continue around Lake Buckskin you come to another fork. To your right youll find an oversized 3 car garage with a potential heliport on the roof. If you follow the curve around Lake Buckskin to your left, it opens to a massive paved parking area in front of the Estate Compound.
When you continue on the road behind the Compound, youll find additional improved areas on the back circle. The back circle takes you to the beautiful Ranch Manager's Home, with a second oversized 3 car garage and additional carport, and then continues around the improved areas to the stables, cattle runs, RV Parking, barn, and Storage Area.
The woods encompass approximately 50 acres, with hunting, hiking and riding trails that extend to the Brazos River.
Home
The 7,340 SF Estate Home is unique to the property. With industrial strength metal frame construction and metal split seam roof, it is a masterpiece combining commercial-industrial strength systems and infrastructure with ultra-luxurious Texas Hill Country Estate styling. The entire first floor has a surrounding covered patio and the second floor has a deep covered veranda. In all, the covered patio and covered veranda add another 4,280 additional Square Feet! There are 40 oversized French Doors, opening every room to either the first floor covered patio or the second floor veranda.
First Floor
You enter the home through two massive and historic Bronze doors. They are over 12' tall with a beautiful natural patina. Once you enter the home you are in a gallery with a 40' ceiling, with two custom stairways, providing grand access to the second floor. The stair cases and the entire 2nd floor landing are framed by hand crafted wrought iron.
The gallery floors are custom inlaid with marble combining rich deep grey tones with sky blue accents. If you cast your gaze to the ceiling, you realize the hand painted sky ceiling colors and the sky blue floor marble accents are perfect complements! The Gallery is flanked to your left by a formal Dining Room with 4 sets of French Doors. Immediately to your right is a professional study, entered through French Doors, that rivals the most stately and elegant studies anywhere. The study has floor to ceiling walnut paneling, floor to ceiling custom shelves, and two built in desks. Completing the study are 20' ceilings covered with custom inserts.
Next to your right is an enclosed Library, again accessed through French Doors. The Library attention to detail is comparable to the Study. Floor to ceiling, the walls display rich burled walnut paneling, custom cabinets, built in desks, and privacy provided by two massive French doors.
If you follow the inlaid sky blue marble on the main floor it traverses from the front door through the Gallery, Great Room, and professional Kitchen, leading to massive French doors that open to the pool and Cabana area.
The First Floor is spectacular, and an entertainer's paradise. Dominating almost 50% of the 1st floor is a breathtaking Great Room, and professional grade Kitchen. Massive plate glass windows provide floor to ceiling views of the pool, Cabana and forest. 9 sets of French Doors mark the transition to the great outdoors.
The kitchen features a 60" professional Viking dual fuel free-standing range, with two Viking ovens. Massive slabs of granite, custom cabinetry, and artisan direct and indirect lighting frame the kitchen area. Off the kitchen is a hallway with oversized matching Sub Zero Refrigerator and Freezer. To your right is a professional pantry with another set of French Doors opening to a 1st floor covered patio.
Tucked away between the Kitchen and Great Room living areas is a Wet Bar with GE refrigerator, GE ice maker and sink.
Off the Great Room is the intimate First Floor Den, providing a seating area for quiet discussions. A half-bath and back stair case as well are accessed from the First Floor Den.
Second Floor
The stair cases and 2nd floor landing and Gallery walkway are anchored by custom wrought iron and beautiful inlaid wood floors.
The Master Suite is 400 SF with 8 French doors out to the veranda. The ensuite bath has two marble sinks, shower and separate bath.
2nd, 3rd and 4th bedrooms all have French doors out to the veranda, massive closets and en-suite baths.
