357 Wood Lake Road Surrounded by upscale properties & hidden behind 3 drive gates in the heart of Aledo, this AG exempt 8.8 acre ranchette offers one of Aledo's most architecturally inspiring homes + barn in a magazine worthy setting. The drive curves around a modern barn to reveal the main home (3429 sqft) + detached structure (994 sqft) constructed with metal, cinderblocks and siding. Concrete planters, yucca, agave, a tall bald cypress...all create a Tx hill country vibe. Behind the glass front door lies a sensory integration of natural light, unique architectural lines & beautiful design selections. The home was last renovated in 2021. The spacious back porch & outdoor kitchen overlook a kidney-shaped pool evoking mid-century nostalgia (added in 2013). In 2021 an addition to the home enlarged the kitchen, added a large additional laundry & pantry space + enhanced the primary suite. The expanded kitchen's attention to detail and tasteful beauty are unparalleled: thick marble, butcher block, waterfall island with European panel detail, dramatic black 6 burner gas range with gold detailing, metal inset cabinet doors, aged hewn wood, soapstone, acrylic, glazed artisan tiles...countless phenomenal touches. The beautiful owner's suite with backyard views with a spa-like bathroom & large walk in closet has access to laundry. The family room with plaster surround fireplace & hewn wood mantle has a tall, spacious ceiling (the room has over 35+ panes of glass), multiple sliding doors to the porch + a music or office space tucked on the side. From lighting and wallpapers to hardware and paint...the blend of colors and materials is pure delight. The detached structure offers a recreation room, upstairs guest suite, smaller garage bay for a shop or ATV. The barn doors open to a large stall (could be divided into multiple stalls), wash bay, insulated tack & feed rooms, automatic water, with heat... Round pin with seating & lights. Property offers multiple pastures and extensive pipe fencing!!!
