instagramDo you follow us on Instagram? Because it’s becoming THE place to share great listings and then get them on our radar — just like Mona Barnett did with this Southlake stunner she has on the market.

“I would love for you to take a peek at this unique listing I have in Southlake,” Barnett, who is with Haute Realty, told us. “It sits on 2.33 acres and backs to Army Corps of Engineering property, and the main level is up int he trees and the walk-out basement is built into a hill.”

Hold up — basement, in Texas? Tell. Us. More.

The custom Neo-Prairie home, located at 2480 Raintree Drive, was built by architect David Haverfield, and is full of luxury designer finishes and lighting on the inside, and boasts stunning grounds and a pool outside.

And not one detail was overlooked. “Even the gutters and attic venting are decorative,” Barnett said.

The entryway is a symphony of coved and vaulted ceilings, mahogany floors, and a stunning LED-backlit onyx stone art piece. A glass-encased stair railing with steel banister punctuates a staircase and second-floor landing.  Art niches in the entryway are backlit as well, and the foyer also boasts an onyx floor.

Throughout the home, the design takes advantage of the surroundings with tons of windows — including double sliders that lead to a balcony and three walls of windows in the dining area.

A chef’s kitchen is light and bright with gorgeous views of the heavily treed-lot, custom cabinetry, a built-in wine fridge, granite countertops, bronze hardware, a Miele built-in coffee maker, commercial grade appliances that include Conniosseurian steam ovens and a Thermador fridge and dishwasher.

An incredible master bedroom overlooks the pool, and the en-suite has double vanities with mahogany cabinets and onyx counters, polished nickel fixtures, and a separate onyx shower and jetted tub. A large walk-in closet completes the space.

On the main floor, a study has plenty of built-in maple cabinets and shelving and a coffered ceiling. The main floor balcony off the main living room overlooks the pool and yard.

A walk-out basement is built into a hill and faces the backyard. A living area has limestone floors and a gorgeous bar area with mini-fridge and dishwasher. There is also a guest bedroom attached, and the media room is also on the basement level.

Double slider doors lead to a covered outdoor living space with ceiling fans, access to the pool, and a built-in inline gas grill and refrigerator.

All five bedrooms have walk-in closets and a custom decorated en-suite bathroom.

The home also boasts an enormous gym with a mirrored wall and is wired for a television hookup, and is even plumbed in case the new owner wishes to add an additional bathroom.

And that pool —  complete with a pool house — has tons of entertainment space. A flagstone pathway leads to a patio and fire pit, and an additional 600 square foot guest area and 1,215 square foot workshop are also on the property.

The incredible estate is also close to tons of Southlake shopping and dining and is listed for $2,399,999. Want to see more photos? Click here. Want to follow us on Instagram? Head here.
