Fantastic opportunity to have a compound of nearly 5 acres of land and two breathtaking homes plus quarters! The main house (306 Longwoods) is an architectural triumph combining Eastern and Western inspiration, modern comforts and conveniences, a serene natural symmetry, and a reverence for the designs of I.M. Pei, Frank Lloyd Wright, and Ludwig Mies van der Rohe. The estate is a light-filled showplace replete with granite, slate, rift-sawn oak, and expanses of glass that turn views of the emerald grounds and bayou into dynamic art. Many rooms were devised to accommodate large format entertaining—from a vast kitchen with space for caterers to an expansive atrium-like dining room and a gathering space that houses a 44-foot-long pool. Across the ravine is yet another breathtaking contemporary home (10105 Longwood Ct) with soaring ceilings and expansive views that eagerly awaits your finishing touches!
