Description

Designed by renowned architect Michael G. Imber, the home, drawing from a Spanish Colonial vocabulary is composed with stone, stucco, and clay tile, that feels established within its setting. Set across 8.21 acres in Bandera, this custom residence sits well back from the road, with mature trees and long sightlines shaping the approach. Entry is through a covered loggia that establishes the home's internal rhythm. Venetian plaster walls, reclaimed wood floors, and arched openings carry through the interior, with circulation oriented toward outdoor rooms and sheltered passages. The great room anchors the plan with a pitched ceiling, stained fir beams, and a stone fireplace. Large openings connect directly to the terrace, allowing light and air to move easily through the space. The kitchen is proportioned for use, with custom cabinetry, inset Subzero and Wolf appliances, a substantial island, and direct connection to adjacent dining areas. Circulation remains clear and intuitive, supporting daily living and larger gatherings without formality. The primary suite opens to the loggia and garden, set apart within the plan. The primary bath includes carved stone details, custom cabinetry, and a soaking tub positioned beneath a window oriented toward the landscape. Guest bedrooms are spaced for privacy, each with its own bath and outdoor access to the loggia. A study and a den or media room are positioned away from the main living areas, maintaining separation without disrupting flow. Outdoor living spaces are integral to the architecture. The terrace extends from the great room and dining areas, with the pool positioned as a visual anchor within the outdoor sequence. Covered seating areas and fireplaces support year-round use. The acreage continues toward the Medina River, which runs seasonally and contributes to the character of the land.
