The striking home at 738 English Turn Lane in the gated country club is a standout even in the manor section of the tony turf.<\/p>\n
Sitting on 3\u00bd acres of land on a cul de sac, the dwelling is almost 10,000 square feet of unique space. Built in 1998, it seems as much a piece of art as the trove of artwork it houses.<\/p>\n

A covered drop-off at the front door is a elegant receiving area for guests to the home on English Turn Lane in the West Bank’s English Turn Country Club.<\/p>\n

Various layers delineate the sitting area, a bright spot lighted by large windows and a feature wall of glass bricks.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
