Contemporary European villa in prestigious Somerset on Mantle Drive, a gated enclave in Westlake just minutes from 360 and convenient to downtown. Nestled in the hills, this property overlooks a lush greenbelt, offering intimate views of the greenery and a wet-weather creek from the main floor and spectacular vistas all the way to the UT tower from the second level. Inspired by European craftsmanship, the stately stone façade is accented with arched windows and iron-railed balconies that frame shady terraces front and back. The lower-level terrace enjoys plenty of space for dining and relaxing and faces a resort-style fenced pool surrounded by trees for privacy.
