Texas’ Own Private Island Home Brings Supreme Privacy and a $3.1 Million Price Tag

A Secret Secluded Paradise?

BY // 06.19.18

They say good fences make good neighbors. But what about no neighbors at all? A new home in Magnolia just hit the market, and it’s the stuff of your wildest dreams. Two words: private island.

That’s right. The luxurious contemporary Mediterranean-style home at 9011 Breckenridge is tucked away on its own island, surrounded by stunning panoramic lake views. The 10.76 lush acres would be all your own, with plenty of covered patios to take in your breathtaking waterfront space. Say the word, pay $3,100,100, and revel in the solitude.

It may not be beach-y, but this island has all the flair and fixtures you need for an everyday getaway. It’s a little bit home, and a little bit home away from home. Who needs a vacation house when you’re already on the water? And there’s no sand to be seen. In its place, you’ll find vibrant, verdant greenery.

A graceful, languid path leads up to the tree-lined brick gateway and charming bridge in front of the 7,211-square-foot-mansion in Woodland Forest. The winding lakeside drive opens into a lovely circular driveway. Palm trees flank the stately six-bedroom, 5.5-bath estate.

The grand foyer boasts gleaming hardwood floors, higher-than-high ceilings, and a sweeping staircase. The home is largely open-air, with gently curved arches in the place of doors. The sleek, tech-savvy kitchen opens up into the breakfast room and the den.

The spectacular den features soaring ceilings with expansive windows, letting the natural light pour in. The room’s white brick fireplace is one of three throughout the home. One of the many balconies looks out over the den.

Cooking and prep work is made easy in the spacious kitchen with granite countertops and a sizeable island with its own sink, outlets, and plenty of room for bar stools. The gas cooktop, gas oven, and convection oven offer a range of options, along with the other sleek appliances. The extensive wood cabinetry means plenty of storage — and then some.

The deck reaches out so far you could dip your toes in the water.

The vast, roomy living room offers space for several couches, chaises, and chairs. It looks out onto the sparkling pool and spa. A sophisticated wet bar sits at the back wall with plenty of room for spirits and glassware on sprightly nights.

The formal dining room is the height of elegance, as is the refined study with built-in cabinets and room for a sturdy desk. The master suite and bath are positively palatial.

Come for the home; stay for the views. In addition to patios, the brick-lined outdoor kitchen is fitted with imported granite counters and an outdoor fireplace. You can enjoy your 365-degree views from your private isle even on wintry nights.

It’s time for some island living. Privacy, please. Maybe that $3.1 million price tag is almost a bargain.
