FM 954 Round Top-area Property is a real estate find!

Ever dreamed of living outside, but with all the comforts of home? Well, look no farther than this Round Top lake house treasure.

Renee Diehl, an agent with Round Top Real Estate and sponsor of this article, is working with the owner — and designer/general contractor — of a unique outdoors-inside property near Warrenton in Fayette County that epitomizes the Round Top modern country style.

Built in 2012, the highly improved retreat covers about 24 acres and features a three-story glass house perched above a 4-acre lake stocked with fish. Constructed of steel and glass, the 2,700-square-foot main home offers three stories of living space, with an open-concept first and second floor ideal for relaxation and entertaining. Atop the social spaces rests the master suite, which encompasses the entire third floor with almost 360-degree views of the lake and Round Top countryside.

The outdoors served as the catalyst for the owner, who designed and oversaw construction. Through travels and experiencing many types of homes, the owner wanted family and guests to feel part of the outdoors while enjoying the home. Each floor of the home provides a window to the diversely scenic property dotted with ancient oaks, grasses and ever-changing wildlife. The native woods invoke a feeling of privacy — while peering through the glass during a rainstorm is a special experience.

Featuring high-end appliances, polished concrete and granite surfaces, the contemporary home is outfitted with efficiency and comfort in mind. Two wells service the Round Top-area property.

While enjoying the vacation-style home, which is being sold complete with furnishings, a grand piano and all appliances, is a benefit, this property offers extensive amenities.

Car buff? The spacious five-car garage has two carlifts. Head outdoors for the waterfall with a pool at the top. Catch largemouth bass until your arms ache from casting and catching. Entertain your guests at the skeet shooting house, which is equipped with a trap machine and plenty of storage for targets. The ATV and trails are great fun for youth and the young at heart. End the day visiting around the outdoor fireplace.

When bedtime arrives, guests will enjoy complete privacy in their own 1,500-square foot guest house, equipped with a full kitchen. They can travel back and forth on the utility vehicle that is also part of the turnkey package.

The compound also features three recreational vehicle stations that can provide additional income if the new owners desire.  Electric, water and septic service this area.

With a wildlife management plan in place the property qualifies for wildlife tax valuation and the entire property is under a high game fence.

The property is located in Fayette County and is zoned to the exemplary Round Top-Carmine Independent School District.
