An exciting new listing has been added to the homes for sale in Texas. In Comfort, Texas, a striking estate has hit the market for $3,899,995, offering the same warmth as its hometown suggests. The estate offers 3,501 square feet of distinctive design on more than 12 acres.
This one-of-a-kind estate draws architectural inspiration from the famed Yves Saint Laurent Museum in Morocco. The Guadalupe River estate was completed in 2020 and offers many unique architectural elements, including landscaping, hardscaping and brickwork inspired by the museum.
The home’s beginning in Comfort, Texas
In 2020, the four-bedroom, three-and-a-half bathroom house was completed, inspired almost entirely by the Yves Saint Laurent Museum, which first opened in 2017. The brickwork, which is a sandy earth tone with asymmetrical patterns, provides visual intrigue through a common structural element. Saint Laurent’s work was described by Björn Dahlström, the museum’s director, in an interview with Vogue, as, “delicate and bold,” a description that also applies to this home’s architecture.
The house takes a modern and ecological approach to building, “blending timeless materials with modern sustainability,” according to its Zillow listing. Sustainability features within the property include: a 10.7 kW solar PV system, Tesla powerwall, spray foam insulation, a water well and a fire-sprinkler system, according to Sotheby’s International Realty.
Other amenities and architectural details
Almost flush with the edge of the Guadalupe River, the backdrop of this home provides stunning scenery that enhances the striking interior design. Upon entering, visitors find a kitchen with a coral countertop and matching shelving, bringing warmth and life to the otherwise neutral-toned room. The ceiling beams in the neighboring living room are antique timber, conveying the dichotomy between new and old within the architecture. The four bedrooms are built for serene mornings, with calming cream colors and a wall of windows in each room showcasing the river just outside the door. In the backyard, a private dock underscores the home’s seclusion in this tree-rich corner of Texas.
There are multiple high-end appliances designed for ease of living. Upgrades that include soundproofed walls, remote-controlled indoor/outdoor shade systems, and a state-of-the-art smart home setup.
