A 4,736-square-foot home recently listed for sale in the Elm Creek community makes quite the impression from the curb with its tall Tuscan columns.
Upon entering the foyer, though, guests also may be struck by the grandeur of 24-foot-tall ceilings, a Venetian crushed marble floor, a fleur-de-lis chandelier and dual grand staircases. It’s easy to picture Vivien Leigh posing at the top of those stairs in a feathered dressing gown after spending hours getting ready. Those wanting to make an even more dramatic entrance could have guests wait in the salon — complete with a fireplace — as they prepare for their big appearance.
Speaking of Vivien Leigh, Gone With the Wind could be an option for movie night in the four-bedroom, four-bath home's entertainment room, complete with a professional-size projection screen. After the credits roll, the owners might retire to the primary bedroom upstairs, which features a second fireplace and French doors that open onto a large balcony.
Outdoors, the luxury continues with a large pool, a hot tub and a brand new patio. Other recent updates on the '90s era home include two new AC units as well as fresh exterior paint. The floor, water heater, water softener, stove and dishwasher also are recent additions.
The property has an asking price is $1.2 million, but with that level of luxury, someone's likely to say, "Frankly, my dear, I don’t give a damn."
