This Modern Long Cove Luxury Lakehouse Slays

Lakehouse living has become a necessity for Texans. Just as New Yorkers escape to the Hamptons on weekends, Dallasites head to Long Cove.

It’s not just because we experience long, hot summers. That can certainly play a role in the decision to purchase a lakehouse, but there are many more reasons. Chief among them is that purchasing a lakehouse is a smart financial investment. Lakefront property is limited, which drives up value, especially in sought-after communities like Long Cove.

Of course, there is the lakehouse lifestyle, which is hard to beat. As you drive out of the city, you can feel the stress of the week just melt away.

For families, this is the ultimate way to make lifelong memories. Long Cove offers a full-service private marina with valet boat service, stocked fishing ponds, and every water sport you can imagine. If you’d rather be in a pool, the exclusive Lake Club has two resort-style pools, and yes, there are pickleball courts!

Now you just have to find the perfect home, but of course, we’ve done the legwork for you!

Douglas Elliman’s Breah Brown just listed this modern Long Cove luxury lakehouse on a bit over half an acre overlooking Henderson Bay. With 7,000 square feet, seven bedrooms, and six and a half bathrooms, there is plenty of room for family and weekend guests. The brilliant thing is that this home is move-in ready in every sense of the word thanks to designer Roman Piotrowski, who is bringing a new sensibility to home buying in Texas.

Piotrowski is the creative director at Vasari, an international design, build, and development firm which got its start in London and only recently launched in Dallas. Unless you’ve purchased property in Europe or are devoted to shows like Selling London or The Parisian Agency (like I am!), you may not know that the best luxury homes are often sold turnkey. They are not staged but instead designed to sell completely furnished.

This concept comes naturally to Piotrowski. “You want to create a space that changes the way people feel,” he said. “When you design a house, everything is in the right place, and the home has a personality. What I love most is the emotional quality of the interiors — the way the spaces make you feel grounded, comfortable, and quietly inspired. There’s warmth in the materials, generosity in the scale, and just enough contrast to keep things interesting. That balance is central to our work at Vasari: crafting interiors that are both elegant and livable — refined but never remote.”

The turnkey concept makes a great deal of sense and is particularly relevant for the second-home market. Who has the time, patience, or inclination to shop for furniture? Buyers want to close the deal and start enjoying luxury lakehouse living immediately.

“Our ambition with the interiors was to craft an atmosphere of understated elegance, where every texture, finish, and proportion speaks softly but with absolute intention,” Piotrowski said. “We weren’t designing for trends or spectacle but for a sense of quiet confidence that reveals itself over time. The home was already architecturally strong — our role was to bring it to life from the inside out, creating spaces that feel beautifully resolved, layered, and deeply personal.”

Not only do you get a turnkey Longcove luxury lakehouse, but the home also comes with a boat and two golf carts, so lake living is really simply a signature away.
