A charmingly artsy home in Terrell Hills listed for just under $1.4 million might be out of the price range of most working artists, but it’s certainly the residence of someone who appreciates the arts.
The earthy yet luxurious abode invites from the curb with a verdant yard and the serenity of a koi pond.
Inside, bold primary color pops suggest modernity, despite the home being nearly a century old.
Bright red makes a striking statement in the entryway, while emerald green cabinets in the kitchen exude opulence, offset by a yellow wall behind the wet bar.
However, one of the most striking rooms in the home is a mustard yellow bathroom reminiscent of a stark, liminal but sophisticated space in a David Lynch film.
The house’s classy noir vibe is further emphasized with a private elevator, which transports from the garage to the second story in just enough time for a vamp to take a long drag from an even longer cigarette.
Other unexpected design choices in the four-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bath home include a cross-hatched textured wallpaper in the TV room and geometric black-and-white statement tiles at various points throughout the house.
The high-contrast tile work continues in the guest house, which offers additional 3 bedrooms or flex spaces and two stories of its own.
This home is listed by Kate Coiner Park with Nix Realty Company.
