Elegantly nestled into the rolling landscape of Westlake Hills, this beautiful French country style home is a rare blend of craftsmanship, charm, and modern refinement. Built in 2002 by the esteemed Dalgleish Construction Company, the home is ideally positioned on 1.92 acres of lush, native landscaping, offering both privacy and breathtaking surroundings. A winding drive leads to this warm and inviting retreat, where classic European architecture meets thoughtful contemporary updates.
Stepping inside, the home exudes timeless character with Saltillo tile floors, multiple fireplaces, and rich natural textures that create a sense of warmth and sophistication. Oversized windows and French doors fill the space with natural light, seamlessly connecting the indoors with the serene outdoor setting.
The thoughtfully designed main floor features all the shared living spaces, offering an ideal balance of openness and intimacy. The dine-in kitchen—equipped with custom cabinetry, top-tier appliances, elegant Carrara marble countertops, and its own cozy fireplace—flows effortlessly into the formal living room, where the soaring vaulted ceiling with exposed beams in a cool wood tone serves as a dramatic focal point. A converted sunroom serves as a stunning dining area, bathed in natural light and offering views of the surrounding landscape. Nearby, a den with built-in shelving and its own fireplace provides a quiet retreat for work or relaxation. The main-floor primary suite is a peaceful haven, featuring a fireplace, a recently updated bathroom with Carrara marble finishes, and a walk-in closet. Upstairs, two spacious secondary bedrooms share a full bathroom and are connected to a second living area—ideal for a media room or playroom. Enhancing the home’s flexibility is a private guest apartment with a separate entrance, perfect for visitors, extended family, or use as a secluded home office or studio.
Designed for seamless indoor-outdoor living, the home boasts multiple patios, courtyards, and shaded terraces perfect for gathering and unwinding. A sparkling pool with Texas limestone accents is nestled among lush greenery, offering a welcome escape on warm summer days. Adjacent to the home, a covered back patio with a fireplace provides a cozy setting for relaxing outdoors, while a louvered pergola nearby creates an ideal space for al fresco dining, rain or shine.
