A unique home located in Rockport, Texas, hit the market in July for $1.67 million.
The home, which now has a signed contract, features ceilings made of reclaimed barn wood.
It also comes with a 40-foot screened barn that houses an eight-foot-deep pool.
Deep in the heart of Texas is a one-of-a-kind farmhouse. The $1.67 million home is located on a secluded lot in Rockport, a city on the southeastern coast of Texas, a half-hour drive from Corpus Christi and along the Gulf of Mexico.
The 2,515-square-foot home sits on 2.5 acres dotted with oak and pine trees. The standout feature of the residence is its 40-foot-tall screened pool barn, a unique structure that adds a modern flair to the home.
“The owners of the home definitely have an artistic vein,” Douglas Elliman real-estate agent Emily Waldmann told Insider. “One of the coolest features of the home is that pool area.”
Now under contract, the home also includes an outdoor dining space, a fire pit, a 1,000-gallon stainless steel rainwater cistern system, and a standing seam metal roof.
