A spectacular Italian manor stands out among the Tuscany and Santa Barbara residences. A home perfect for both family and entertaining offers an indoor-outdoor lifestyle as it exudes an ambiance of relaxed sophistication. The magic begins at the custom wood door resembling a castle entry, leading into the foyer and expansive living room with floor-to-ceiling windows. The interior is a celebration of spaciousness and light bestowed by an abundance of Fenestration custom metal windows and doors, Old World plaster, hand-laid stone, antique oak floors, Bourgogne Limestone, with accents of reclaimed beams sourced from the midwest.

As it is in any home of this stature, the culinary center is not only essential but serves as a frequent hub of camaraderie. Here, the kitchen opens to the family room and breakfast area, which, in turn, allows access to an expansive veranda overlooking the picturesque grounds.

An entire wing of the home’s entry-level is devoted to the primary suite with serene views of the pool and lake. Enter into the primary closet, to be met with a spiral staircase, lighted island, built-ins, and an expansive second-level. A true fairytale!

No expense was spared in creating this oasis of visual delight! Take the winding stone pathway down to the lake to truly appreciate this hidden gem. Come see what magic awaits at the Italian Escape on Lake Austin!
