A pool barn? ‘Old soul’ estate for sale in Texas comes with one. Take a look
Why settle for an ordinary backyard that has a simple pool without any overhead protection from the elements? A home in Texas is fighting against basic cookie-cutter backyards by showcasing its very own “pool barn.”
Yes, it’s exactly what it sounds like.
The three-bedroom, three-bathroom home — which is listed for $1.67 million in Rockport — defies the conventional with its screened, 40-foot pool barn, which adds some flair to a backyard oasis. While the cool feature stands out, it’s not the only unique aspect about the place referred to as “a new home with an old soul,” a news release says.
“Pulling up you’ll immediately feel a sense of calm and likely be greeted by some of the abundant wildlife that also calls this land home,” the listing on Douglas Elliman says. “With input from Mell Lawrence Architects and final design by Stephen Haynes, the home allows one to feel connected with the landscape from every room. Every detail showcases creativity in designing the spaces - vintage, antique and eclectic objects along with repurposed materials and fixtures all have personal stories.”
Other features in and around the 2,515-square-foot home include:
“Vaulted reclaimed barn wood ceilings”
Private back porch
“Custom Mexican cement tile”
Indoor/outdoor floor plan
Covered porches
“1,000-gallon stainless steel rainwater cistern system with pump”
Hurricane impact windows and doors
There is also an extra acre that’s available to buy.
The listing is held by Megan Gallagher and Emily Waldmann.
Rockport is right on the Gulf of Mexico’s coastline, about 160 miles southeast of San Antonio.
