Details

Set on 5 unrestricted acres just outside the city limits, this modern farmhouse blends wide-open Texas skies with thoughtful design and everyday comfort. Built in 2017, with a beautifully finished guest house added in 2022, it offers space, flexibility, and a lifestyle that’s hard to find — all just minutes from Rockwall’s top-rated schools and conveniences.

From the moment you pull up, the front porch and surrounding trees set the tone. It’s peaceful, inviting, and feels like home before you even step inside.

The main house opens into a bright, airy layout where everything flows naturally. The living room is a standout, anchored by a floor-to-ceiling bookshelf with a rolling ladder, a large picture window, and a tucked-away reading nook that adds just the right amount of charm. The electric fireplace lets you set the mood year-round, whether you're hosting friends or winding down for the night.

The kitchen is both beautiful and functional, featuring a farmhouse sink, Sub-Zero refrigerator, luxury gas range, and windows that look out over the property. It connects seamlessly to the living, dining, and outdoor spaces, making entertaining feel easy and natural. Just off the main area, a private study with a classic barn door offers a quiet spot to work or create.

The primary suite, conveniently located downstairs, feels like its own retreat. With a spacious sitting area and a spa-like bathroom complete with a jetted soaking tub and walk-in shower, it’s the kind of space you’ll look forward to at the end of every day.

Upstairs, three additional bedrooms are thoughtfully arranged — one with its own ensuite bath, and two connected by a Jack and Jill. A large game room gives you space to spread out, whether it’s movie nights, game days, or just everyday living. A two-car garage with walk-up attic storage adds that extra layer of practicality.

And then there’s the guest house — fully equipped with its own living room, kitchen, bedroom, bathroom, and bonus room. Whether you use it for guests, extended family, a home office, or even rental income, it’s a space that truly adds value and flexibility.

Both homes feature charming front and back porches, perfect for slow mornings with coffee or evenings watching the sun go down.

And the sunsets here? They’re something special. Best enjoyed from the rooftop deck atop the property’s one-of-a-kind shipping container — a unique feature that also offers additional storage.

Outside, the property continues to deliver. A large covered patio with an electric shade screen creates an effortless indoor-outdoor setup for year-round gatherings, while the sport court brings a fun, active element right to your backyard. Whether you're entertaining, working on a project, or simply enjoying the quiet, this property gives you the space to do it all.

Homes like this don’t come along often — especially with this much land, character, and versatility in Rockwall.

Come see it for yourself. You’ll understand the moment you pull in… and you may not want to leave.
