The Home
The Polaris is about coming home. The homeowner is a United States Air Force Academy alumnus and his family, who found the perfect location to overlook his alma mater. This home is built for today and tomorrow, with elevator and ADA access.
As you enter, sweeping Air Force Academy views greet you. The living area boasts a stunning fireplace wall, a crush-worthy kitchen and pantry and a lovely dining area. The mud room flows seamlessly into the master closet and kitchen. Along the way, a stop at the wine fridge is a nice perk. The office and second bedroom offer plenty of space for work and guests. With a gorgeous fire tray, grill area, infrared heaters and hot tub, the huge deck is a year-round destination.
The basement is built to play, but the homeowners can lock off part of it if they wish. The exercise room is decked out in Air Force
Academy blue flooring. The fun game room is next to the wet bar and walk-out rec room, with a powder room nearby. Two bedrooms
share a bathroom and have their own laundry room. A vault room under the front porch adds additional storage.

The Interior Design
Designer Jessica Brown at La-Z-Boy Furniture Galleries pulled off the feat of making this home comfortable and stylish at the same time. This breathtaking house is bathed in warm, neutral earth tones, which is complemented by the fresh yet comfortable furnishings — including La-Z-Boy’s sophisticated Duo Bennett Sofa that’s covered in an environmentally friendly Conserve fabric that feels as cozy as your favorite sweater. Each room flows to the next with an inviting palette and pops of color to surprise. The decor marries up with the natural light, dramatic wood, tile and granite to make the home feel warm and inviting

Our client’s vision for this home materialized as a single-story layout seamlessly blending the charm of a mountain aesthetic with a modern, rustic vibe.

Welcome to Texas Hill Country living at its finest! This stunning almost new modern farmhouse features a one story 5/3 with 2 half bath home with a movie room, and a guesthouse nestled on over 5+ acres in a fenced neighborhood in Lake Travis ISD with lake access!
The home was built in 2021 and was built/designed by the award winning Deville Custom Homes and is the builder's personal home. The home is almost completely wheelchair/ADA accessible, and features a flat lot, an entertaining back yard with a pool for even the youngest of children to enjoy (shallow depths with side walls for the just in case moments), a 30k rainwater collection tank, an inground trampoline, and a partially turfed backyard that meets another sodded acre so the whole group can run barefoot! There is even an inside/outside bathroom that allows those in the pool to quickly run in and out without getting the house wet!
All of the small details have been thought about including Christmas plugs in the soffit, RV outlets, wired for solar and an electric vehicle, entire house is wired with Sonos speakers (even the pool) and 8 cameras with an alarm. This home was designed for the entertaining and discerning buyer who wants their privacy but is conscientious and cautious and likes to feel protected.
Additional details are: completely spray foamed home, large 12x16 metal storage building that matches the house, level 4 drywall, a large Fleetwood back door, most cactus has been eradicated, 12 foot ceilings in main rooms, and an outdoor kitchen with built in grill and wired for a tv.

Remember to bring your horses and your boat!

Within a modernist house nestled in the hills, a family of five wanted to create a minimalist home to suit their casual, indoor/outdoor lifestyle. Our clients for this project, who have discerning tastes, but also love to have fun, collaborated with us on every detail. Everything in the home contains meaning, from the typographic artwork in the dining room that spells out “family” in logos, to graphics calling out the ownership of lockers in the mudroom, to the surfboards that line the stairwell like functional artwork.
All-white walls allow these details to take center stage, while Fleetwood doors slide open to usher the outdoors in and continuous concrete flooring unifies the indoor and outdoor spaces. Italian cabinetry, an opaque glass accent wall and an internal garage door that rolls up to reveal an industrial workout room complement the contemporary architecture, while in other spaces reclaimed barnwood and retro tiles provide a playful sense of contrast.
