    Tanglewood's most expensive manor elegantly strolls onto market for $10.99M

    Holly Beretto
    Oct 23, 2023 | 5:55 am

    Home buyers looking for something that blends the idea of a private oasis with a space that wows guests need look no further than 5412 Sturbridge Dr. The manor-style home is on the market for $10.995 million, listed by Bobby Yazdani and Brian Spack of Martha Turner Sotheby’s International Realty. The Jack Preston Wood-devised estate sits on 1.19 acres.

    Every aspect of the home is grand. Imagine walking through the French mahogany doors into the grand foyer, looking up at the duple iron and teardrop crystal chandelier, set in a niche high above a double marble-clad helical staircase that sweeps upward, creating a jaw-dropping entrance.

    Or, think about sinking into a sofa in the formal living room within the rotunda, where arched miniature leaded glass transom windows and double height butted glass windows flood the space with light and offering sweeping views of the grounds. Picture guests waving from the scenic overlook above the great room, taking in the coffered ceiling above and the sports and recreation spaces outside.

    A private hallway leads from the grand foyer to the secluded master suite, itself an opulent oasis in a home that's filled with superlatives. The suite's athenaeum features a tray ceiling fortified by stone columns, making it a comfortable reading nook. Mount a television to the wall and it becomes the perfect spot to binge watch in seclusion.

    Three sets of French doors accent the sleeping chamber, leading to the pool and gardens and the spa-like master bath, with its oversized walk-in shower with dual shower heads and shower wand, a private water closet, dual vanities and sinks, and leaded glass windows. The dressing room holds space for suits and gowns, shoes and purses, and everyday wear. Seasonal attire is easily stored on the third-tier pull-down rods.

    The grounds of 5412 Sturbridge are as luxe as the home itself. In the backyard, a bubbling fountain within a waveless basin draw the eye towards the heated swimming pool and stone-framed wall of water. A heated spa adjacent to the pool offers another space to relax, and beneath the pergola is a stone-backed, cascading 10-foot water wall that trickles into the pool below.

    In the northwest corner of this estate, find the sports complex, where owners and guests can practice their golf or tennis swing, smack the tetherball around the pole, put together a pick up game of basketball.

    5412 Sturbridge in Tanglewood is for sale for $10.995 million and sits on 1.19 acres.

    Other incredible features of this massive manse include a movie theater, a second-floor game room with kitchenette, a first-floor library with a spiral staircase leading to a second story with built-in shelves, a third-floor studio that can be a yoga or art space, and seven bedroom with ensuite baths.

    From its Tanglewood location, the city is easily accessible, making 5412 Sturbridge the perfect home for those looking for something that is in the heart of Houston with the feeling of being tucked away from the Bayou City's bustle and go.

    Country star Miranda Lambert lists Texas childhood home for $1.6 million

    Miranda Lambert's childhood homestead, at 18621 Country Rd. 477, in Lindale, Texas is for sale.

    The 25-acre childhood homestead of country music star Miranda Lambert — whose popular ballad “The House That Built Me” very well could apply to the Grammy winner’s upbringing — is on the market in East Texas for nearly $1.6 million.

    According to Mansion Global, Lambert and her parents, Beverly and Rick, have listed the estate nearly 30 years after the family bought the main residence there.

    She and her family moved into the house when she was 14 years old. Lambert lived there till age 21, when she relocated to the adjacent “pink house,” which she purchased with money from her first big record deal.

    Lambert still owns the “pink house,” and her parents have vacated the primary home but still own everything except their daughter’s house, Mansion Global reported. The property is in Lindale, about 120 miles east of Fort Worth.

    The main attractions at the four-bedroom, five-bathroom, 103-year-old property are its two cottage-style homes, stocked three-acre pond, and shooting range.

    “The main residence showcases hardwood flooring, built-in cabinetry, textured walls, and vintage details that add character throughout,” says the listing from Lee Trowbridge of Compass. “Light-filled living spaces connect naturally to porches, decks, and courtyard areas, offering comfortable transitions between indoor and outdoor spaces.”

    The second home offers views of the pond and its own outdoor areas.

    The property, an old dairy farm at 18621 County Road 477, also includes:

    • A soaking tub in the primary bathroom.
    • An outdoor kitchen.
    • A brick courtyard.
    • A warehouse.
    • A shop with a bathroom and living quarters.
    • Three RV hookups.

    “Experience this rare opportunity to enjoy land, water, multiple residences, and a piece of music history in a setting that feels both quiet and connected,” the listing says.

    Part of Lambert’s music history is the 2009 song about “The House That Built Me,” which Tom Douglas and Allen Shamblin originally wrote for her first husband, country music star Blake Shelton.

    When you read some of the lyrics of that tune, you can picture a young Lambert at the Lindale home:

    I know they say you can’t go home again

    I just had to come back one last time

    Ma’am, I know you don’t know me from Adam

    But these handprints on the front steps are mine

    Up those stairs in that little back bedroom

    Is where I did my homework and I learned to play guitar

    And I bet you didn’t know under that live oak

    My favorite dog is buried in the yard

    Lambert maintains strong ties to her hometown. There, she owns the Pink Pistol boutique, located on Miranda Lambert Way, according to Mansion Global. The tasting room for Red 55 Winery, which Lambert and her family started in 2005, is attached to the boutique.
