Welcome to 24 Farnham Park. The circular driveway allows for parking off of the street. There is also additional parking near the garages. Farnham Park offers a rare combination of family friendly fun and the peace of mind that comes from being in a secure, private community. And, the location is ideal, neighboring The Kinkaid School and zoned to Memorial ISD schools.
Tucked away behind the privately manned gates of prestigious Farnham Park subdivision, this custom Georgian home is a site to behold, both inside and out!
As you enter the beautiful home, the interiors designed by Nicole Zarr, of Triangle Interiors, will take your breath away. Notice the gleaming white oak plank floors laid in herringbone fashion. Home has a warm traditional layout including formals that flank the wide entry hall. 
Imagine the dinner parties and family festivities that occur here in the amazing dining room with its lacquered ceiling, dual chandeliers and silk draperies. Homeowner designed the dining room to hold even the most lavish events. There’s room for everyone! 
A sneak peek into the butler’s pantry. Every nook and cranny is meticulously styled with handsome hardware and other designer touches. 
Back at the grand entry, you will be dazzled by the spacious living room with its Gracie custom, hand painted wallpaper and the handsome limestone fireplace mantle. The living room flows directly into a beautiful piano room with its art niches and looks directly to the pool, porches and grounds. 
The light filled gallery hallway with its plastered groin-vaulted ceiling and walls lead you to the kitchen, breakfast room and sunroom which comprise the true heart of the home. Notice the sets of French doors that line the entire hallway allowing immediate access to the porches and pool. At the end of the hallway, you will find a loggia which extends the living space to the outdoors. 
As you head down the gallery, you will be transfixed by the gorgeous green bar with its malachite ceiling. The bar is situated in a perfect spot for entertaining and is plenty big to have a bartender or two. Of course, it’s also convenient for fixing your own 5 o’clock cocktail! 
You have now reached the heart of the home - the kitchen, the breakfast room and sunroom behind the curtains. The oversized kitchen is grounded with a massive island with quartzite countertop, lots of additional storage, a second sink and plenty of seating for casual eating or while family and friends hangout. Be sure to look up at the ceiling! 
The trussed beamed soaring ceiling is a focal point you cannot miss. This chef’s kitchen, which was remodeled in 2017, features top of the line appliances: Dacor 6 burner gas range, refrigerator and freezer, wall ovens and warming drawers. There are two Thermador dishwashers as well. The designer vent hood made of stainless steal and brass pops against the sleek white background and compliments the chandeliers. 
The breakfast room seamlessly connects to the kitchen. Here you will find exposed brick walls that have been slurried by Segreto. A dual fireplace is shared with the sunroom. Here is another gathering space perfect for kids doing homework and cozy dinners in. 
The “ooh and aah” sunroom! Once you come in through the curtained archway, you will not want to leave. Beneath the beamed trusses, the Palladian style window and doors bring the outdoors in. Curl up with a good book and turn the fireplace on in the winter or open the doors during a pool party in warmer weather. Families will be drawn to this room. 
At the end of the gallery hallway and directly off of the sunroom, you will find the covered loggia and summer kitchen. There’s also a pool half bath. Graceful archways appear to be picture frames for the pool and green spaces. The limestone mantle, gas lanterns and Georgian brick and flagstone are a few examples of how the custom finishes and quality of design continue outdoors. 
Another room that has beautiful views of the pool and grounds is the handsome two story study and library with its intricate ceiling and moldings. Room features richly painted cypress walls and cabinets and a marble surround fireplace. This showstopping room has great display walls, built ins and lighting to feature precious collections. 
Here's a different angle of the library/study that highlights the incredibly quality of construction that is apparent throughout the home. Notice the ornate millwork, the second story balcony, the rounded window creating a natural workspace and the multiple windows flooding the room with natural light. Don’t miss the hidden stairway that leads up to the second story and into the primary retreat. 
Some more special features of Farnham Park’s downstairs! Pretty guest powder bath conveniently located close to formals.
Here’s the coffee bar with two refrigerator drawers and ample storage. It is part of the mud room off of kitchen that also leads to the oversized pantry and two garages. One garage holds three cars and the other is an air conditioned single garage that is perfect for your prized sports car or for a workshop. 
Downstairs laundry room where you can do your laundry in style! There’s also an upstairs laundry room that serves the primary and secondary bedrooms. 
The game room off of the sunroom is fun for all ages! Shuffle board, anyone?! 
Private guest retreat off of the kitchen and breakfast room has its own private porch with views of the koi pond and green space. 
Before we go upstairs, let’s take a closer look at Farnham Park’s beautiful grounds… Here is a closeup view of the gallery hallway, green garden and outdoor loggia and summer kitchen. 
Pool view of the Georgian brick facade, stone balcony, slate roof and covered porches. Wow! 
It’s time to head up the gracious Southern Colonial stairway! First stop… the primary retreat. 
The primary suite occupies its own wing of the house for ultimate privacy. This light and bright morning room can also be accessed by the second story library/study and has its own private porch with views of the extensive backyard grounds and pool. 
Enjoy your first cup of coffee on your own private balcony off of the morning room/primary retreat. The perfect place to start and end your day! 
The peaceful, oversized primary bedroom has a sleek marble fireplace, built ins and space for two seating areas! The room exudes style and serenity…
This spa-like primary bathroom has a dual walk in shower, large soaking tub, two oversized closets, two water closets and dual vanities plus a makeup area. Plenty of room for two to get ready at once! 
The other wing of the house features three ensuite secondary bedrooms, laundry room, a fabulous family tv room/den and a home office. 
Upstairs tv room and den is close to the back stairway… Another spot for the kids to hangout!
Here’s one of the ensuite bedrooms. All have the finest finishes, including huge walk in closets, custom drapes, chandeliers and special architectural touches. 
Heading up to the third floor… there’s still so much more to see. Media room has surround sound and is soundproofed for a true cinematic experience.
Don’t forget to stock the refreshment station off of the media room for your next movie night marathon! There’s a half bath conveniently located here as well. Plenty of decked attic space for more odds and ends. If you don’t want to take the stairs to watch the movie, you can also take the elevator which goes to all three floors! 
Mirrored exercise room that will hold any and all equipment. Third floor has two extra large walk in designated storage spaces to house all your holiday decor, luggage and more. Although we are nearing the end of our house tour, let’s take another look outside… there’s still so much more to see! 
Entertaining, entertaining, entertaining! So much space for the whole family, neighbors and all of your friends. 
Private garden off of back green space next to the air conditioned single car garage. Behind the iron gates covered with ivy is a full house generator. Probably the largest generator you’ve seen for a residential home! 
Say hello to the koi fish in the pond. Sorry, no fishing allowed! Also, notice the ample green space… perfect for a batting cage or possibly a pickle ball court! 
A great view of the expansive 36,000+ square foot lot. The most beautiful “party house” you will ever see. This is also a great shot of the slate roof. Quality abounds and Seller has meticulously maintained.
So long 24 Farnham Park… It is hard to describe the impeccable craftsmanship and attention to detail that comprises the home. This estate is truly breathtaking, magazine quality throughout. You must see it to believe it!
