Arrive at dusk on a quiet Bayou Park 3 cul-de-sac and the elevation does the talking - chopped limestone masonry set against contrast red brick, gabled dormers catching the last of the light, and landscape uplighting washing the stonework while a mature oak shades the manicured lawn edged in stacked stone beds.
By daylight the craftsmanship reads even clearer: arched windows crowned with soldier-course brick and cast stone surrounds, a stained double entry door set with wrought-iron diamond-lattice glass, and a curved walkway winding through layered beds to the front step.
Step inside to a two-story foyer laid in a harlequin inlay - travertine set on point, ribboned in mahogany wood tile - with a hardwood staircase and wrought-iron balusters climbing to the railed catwalk above, crown molding and chair rail carrying the formality down the hall.
The family room opens to soaring two-story ceilings, anchored by a floor-to-ceiling dry-stack Austin stone fireplace flanked by arched display niches, with a wall of windows pouring light across mahogany wood tile.
Out back, the story shifts to resort living - a freeform saltwater pool with a raised stone-faced spa, a sweeping stamped concrete deck, a fire pit gathering circle, and still a generous run of turf beyond the coping.
The kitchen is dressed in chocolate-glazed cherry cabinetry with a custom tapered wood chimney hood, full-movement granite counters, a linear glass and travertine mosaic backsplash, and a stainless wall oven with microwave above, set into a full-height cabinet tower.
The primary suite retreats behind a stepped tray ceiling trimmed in crown molding, with mahogany wood tile underfoot and a wide window bank framing the shaded backyard.
Set on the bulb of the cul-de-sac, the lot stretches wide across a deep front lawn with a mature live oak and dual walkways feeding the entry and the drive.
Head-on, the symmetry comes together - steep gables over the stone-faced entry, twin dormers stepping down toward the garage, and an oversized drive with room to turn.
From the drive side you see the full massing: dormered roofline, brick-and-stone bay, and a wide approach that keeps parking off the cul-de-sac.
The covered entry frames a mahogany-toned double door set with wrought-iron diamond-lattice glass, standing between cast stone quoins and running-bond brick, with a herringbone brick porch underfoot.
The foyer opens both directions at once - formal living through a soft arch to the left, the staircase and iron-railed catwalk to the right, and inlaid tile drawing the eye straight through.
Looking back toward the entry, an arched transom window floats above the doors and a chandelier hangs the full two stories, with the carved newel post and iron balusters anchoring the run.
The formal living room lifts into a vaulted ceiling with crown molding, lit by tall arched windows and grounded by a two-tone wall treatment with chair rail.
Paired arched transoms crown double-hung windows here, filling the room with morning light and giving the front rooms their cathedral feel.
The formal dining room rises a full two stories, crowned by an ornate chandelier, with a chair-rail wainscot and a tall window bank that keeps the space bright without losing its formality.
From the dining table you look straight through the arched opening to the front doors and formal living beyond - the kind of sightline that makes hosting feel effortless.
The family room reads best from the kitchen side: the stone chimney breast climbing to the ceiling, arched niches stacked on both walls, and clerestory windows above the main bank for a second layer of light.
Turning toward the foyer, the arched openings and iron-railed catwalk tie the two stories together while mahogany wood tile runs continuously through the main level.
The kitchen works as hard as it looks - a granite-topped island, glass-front display uppers, undercabinet lighting, stainless dishwasher, and a coffee-bar run tucked against the breakfast side.
The custom tapered wood chimney hood crowns a gas cooktop set in full-movement granite, with a stainless microwave and wall oven stacked in the cabinet tower and a French-door refrigerator alongside.
The breakfast room sits in a bright corner with a window bank over the backyard and a door to the patio - the everyday counterpart to the formal dining room.
A breakfast bar in split-face silver travertine ledgestone separates the kitchen from the casual dining and keeps the whole rear of the home connected to the family room fireplace.
A private study off the entry offers mahogany wood tile, generous window light, and enough footprint for a desk, seating, and full-height shelving. A closet and full bath just outside the doors let it double as a flex room or fifth bedroom.
A secondary full bath carries the finishes through - large-format tile tub surround with mosaic accent band, granite-topped vanity, and a privacy window over the tub.
From the doorway, the primary suite reads generously - tray ceiling with crown, ensuite framed in the corner, and enough room for a king plus a sitting area.
The primary bath is a full retreat: a tiled garden tub beneath a glass block window, dual granite vanities with framed mirrors, and a separate glass-enclosed shower.
Travertine-look tile runs the floor and tub deck, with a linen tower, private water closet, and a direct door back to the bedroom.
The vanity wall stretches long in granite with framed mirror, sconce lighting, and glass-front cabinetry for display and storage together.
The walk-in shower is finished floor to ceiling in stone-look tile with dual shower heads, a handheld on slide bar, corner seat, and pebble mosaic floor.
From the catwalk you get the best read on the volume - two full stories of stone chimney, stacked arched niches, and a window wall opening to the pool.
The second-floor landing looks down over the entire family room, showing how the arches, niches, and light bank all line up.
A secondary bedroom sits carpeted and quiet with a window over the treetops - comfortable proportions and a full closet.
The upstairs game room opens over an iron-railed overlook to the family room below, with a media wall and room for a full-size table alongside.
An upstairs bath keeps things practical - tiled tub-shower surround, granite vanity, and a wide mirror over the sink.
A dedicated media room sits tucked off the game room, wrapped in plush carpet with a stepped ceiling and a full wall staged for the screen - set back far enough from the landing to keep movie nights to themselves.
A shared bath serves the secondary bedrooms with dual sinks in granite, a center storage tower, and direct access from the bedroom side.
Another secondary bedroom carries plush carpet, a full window, and enough wall for a queen or twin set with dressers.
This bedroom takes the corner light, with a ceiling fan, wall shelving, and space for a desk beside the closet.
The covered patio extends off the back of the home in brick and beam, with room for a full seating group and a straight shot out to the pool deck.
The pool comes into its own from the deck - freeform water with a raised stone spa spilling in, a fire pit ring in stamped concrete, and the two-story brick elevation as the backdrop.
Wide open to the sky, the pool and spa sit ringed in stamped concrete with mature trees along the fence line and plenty of lawn left over.
From the grass you see the whole rear composition: covered patio, pool, spa, and a fenced yard that keeps its distance from the neighbors.
The full width of the backyard shows what the lot really offers - pool and deck on one side, a broad open run of turf on the other.
From above, the pool and deck read as a single sculpted shape set into a deep, fully fenced half-acre lot with room to spare in every direction.
The aerial tells the location story - the home sits on a mature, tree-lined cul-de-sac in Bayou Park 3, with an oversized corner lot behind it.
Straight down, the footprint is clear: a half-acre lot, a private pool deck set well off the fence lines, and cul-de-sac frontage with a landscaped island.
That is a full-size SUV in the right-hand bay, and it fits with room to spare - the clearest measure of how deep and wide this attached three-car tandem garage runs. The tandem bay beside it still takes a third vehicle, a workshop bench, or the lawn equipment, with overhead cabinet storage and direct interior access.
