A custom home, conceived for the way
families actually live.

Set within the prestigious gated enclave of Seis Lagos in Lucas, Texas, this exceptional custom residence masterfully redefines multi-generational living. With its thoughtful design and generous proportions, the home offers seamless spaces for both intimate family moments and extended guest stays.

The heart of the home is a striking great room conceived in classic log-cabin style. A commanding double-mantled fireplace rises dramatically from a raised sitting hearth of smooth river rock, ascending uninterrupted to the soaring vaulted ceiling. This architectural centerpiece anchors the space with warmth, texture, and timeless presence.

Six bedrooms—including a loft area in the great room currently serving as a seventh—along with five and a half bathrooms, downstairs and upstairs living areas, a spacious great room, and a convenient kitchenette create ideal quarters for in-laws and long-term guests. The eat-in kitchen flows effortlessly into an expansive dining area capable of hosting large gatherings with ease.

Wraparound porches and
old-growth trees

A private cul-de-sac off Santa Monica Drive opens to a lot framed by mature growth trees. The traditional two-story brick-and-wood elevation is anchored by a wraparound covered porch that traces the entire face of the residence—a generous outdoor room in its own right.

An oval leaded-glass window above the entry signals the considered detail that runs throughout the home. Generous covered porches at both front and rear extend the living spaces outward, ideal for entertaining and relaxation through the seasons.
