Located less than one hour from Downtown Houston, this six-bedroom modern home, listed by Alex Loyd, sits on nearly three waterfront acres in Taylor Lake’s El Lago community. Designed by Miro Rivera Architects and built over five years by Windham Builders, the 14,000-square-foot residence features white granite, Italian stone, a copper roof, and pear and African cherry wood. Landscaping by Peter Walker includes a koi pond, pool, and lake views.
The circular entry features custom doors, Makrana marble, and skylights. Entertaining spaces include a grand living room with acoustics, glass walls, a green marble fireplace, and a walk-up bar. The game room offers a bar, millwork, and patio access. The home theater has reclining massage chairs, A/V equipment, and stadium seating. Additional spaces include an office, gym, meditation room, and craft room.
The indoor-outdoor dining room features a custom blue Macauba marble table with a private sculpture patio for post-dinner relaxation. The kitchen includes custom cabinets, granite counters, Sub-Zero and Miele appliances, and a butler’s pantry with warming drawers, wine storage, and two walk-in pantries.
Six bedrooms include an owner’s suite with water views, a bathroom with a steam shower and jetted tub, a walk-in closet with shoe storage, a packing island, and a cedar closet. A personal elevator and custom glass staircase provide access to additional bedroom suites.
The outdoor area includes a covered patio with bench swings, a summer kitchen, a pool, a fire pit, and a strolling garden. Systems include four Carrier HVAC units, a mudroom, staff quarters with a kitchenette, and covered parking for five vehicles.
