Description
This one-of-a-kind, 3-bedroom, 4-bath home atop Steamboat Mountain outside Buffalo Gap provides unequalled views & interior finishes on this secluded 21.31-acre lot. Built by Tim Akens of West Texas Custom Builders, this home is situated to showcase the surrounding terrain with oversized plate glass windows and doors that flood the home with natural light while framing the stunning vistas and nature’s light show each evening from sunsets over the pool to the west.
The primary axis of the home is the 48’ x 22’ open-concept great room, with a substantial limestone block fireplace and living area opposite the kitchen flanking space for a long dining table. The kitchen has wood beam accents that are replicated thoughout the house, a massive island with built-in shelving, dual sinks, and stone countertops. High-end stainless appliances, custom cabinetry, a farmhouse sink, and pendant lighting combine functionality with style. Large windows along the west side of the house are shaded by a porch that runs the length of the structure, providing shaded natural light and views that remind the owner: this home cannot be replicated.
The 4,908 square foot interior has three HVAC systems (one for the garage with two kennels to keep pets in comparable comfort). The two secondary bedrooms occupy their own suite and each have ensuite baths with custom-built closets, shelving and built-in dressers. The primary suite has windows that provide views to the north and west, ensuite bath with dual vanities, tub and separate shower with stone finishes. The massive closet hides a built-in safe room for peace of mind.
The pool and patio is oriented west, allowing one to enjoy the views to the valley. A shaded backyard limestone provides additional space to enjoy the outdoors and the views. The standing seam metal roof adds modern durability. The detached 1220 square foot shop is equipped with a commercial HVAC unit & provides ample room for storage, projects, or extra vehicles. The workshop has seller-owned solar panels that provide power to the house and shop for reduced utility bills. The house, outer building, and outdoor patio/pool are wired with fiber optic that allows you to uninterruptedly receive Zoom calls, steam data and work remotely. This unique property offers the ultimate in seclusion and design.
