Ooh La La! This Vintage Oaks Home Is a Piece of Paris in the Hill Country

Full of impeccable details and old-world charm, this gorgeous Vintage Oaks home is a stunning ode to the charm of the French countryside.

If you’ve ever set foot in New Braunfels, you’re well aware: the Hill Country is no stranger to German influence. From the authentic knock-your-socks-off kolaches at  Naelegin's Bakery to the “Wilkommen” sign at Wurstfest, our little Texas Eden has been the home of Deutsch settlers since the 1800s.

This heritage can be seen in plenty of traditional German architecture throughout town, as well as newer neighborhoods nodding to the town’s history with “Euro-Texan” architecture.

It seems, however, that the designers of 1175 Bordeaux Lane wanted something a little different. From the front door to the back porch, take a look at the French details in this beautiful home.

Nestled in the arms of a full Hill Country acre, 1175 Bordeaux Lane screams “rustic elegance” from the get-go, boasting a mixed-stone exterior and an adorable front porch supported by stately columns.

Though the front door was imported from a stately 1800s mansion near Paris (ooh la la!), we can’t help but think this home looks straight out of the French countryside.

Considering its strong aesthetic and unique details, it’s not surprising that 1175 Bordeaux Lane was designed by a (design firm?) with an eye for artistry. This custom home was designed and handcrafted by Renaissance7, whose design philosophy touts: “Architecture is the ultimate expression of art.”

Entertaining may be lovely, but when it’s time to retreat into your private quarters, 1175 Bordeaux Lane offers a getaway-style master suite that feels like a royal vacation. Huge windows welcome in the Hill Country sunshine, and distressed wood doors hint of a cozy cottage while the luxury, spa-style bathroom is more reminiscent of a palace

What would a Hill Country home be without its outdoor space? This generous back porch leads out of the common area, inviting you to feast your eyes on the Texas views...and trust us, there are plenty of them. Spread across nearly 4,000 beautifully maintained acres, the community of Vintage Oaks truly exemplifies the phrase “wide-open space.”
