Under contract-accepting backup offers. This Mid-Century Modern masterpiece designed by renowned architect John Puckett situated on a legacy property is a rare offering-where architecture, landscape, and lifestyle converge in perfect harmony. Thoughtfully positioned to capture sweeping views rather than street presence, the home embraces its extraordinary setting on Haile Sink, a unique geological formation known for its remarkable depth and clarity, fed by the waters of Hogtown Creek. This serene, creek-fed lake -averaging approximately 140 feet deep-offers exceptional water quality and a diverse aquatic environment. This private lake is ideal for fishing and exploration, with bass, gar, catfish, and more! Beyond the waters edge, over 1,000 acres of the protected Sugarfoot Prairie creates an unmatched backdrop of open vistas and natural beauty, ensuring enduring privacy and a connection to nature. Set on 5 acres, the home and the studio apartment are both constructed of solid concrete block and designed to seamlessly integrate with the surrounding prairie, forest, the creek and the lake. Expansive terraces and decks extend the living space outdoors, while floor-to-ceiling windows frame views from nearly every room. Inside, architectural details abound-Cyprus ceilings, built-in bookcases, brick walls, and striking fireplaces anchor the living spaces. The upper level features rich hardwood flooring, while the lower level offers a modern aesthetic with finished concrete floors.
