Have you ever wanted an underwater tunnel in your backyard? With this mansion that just hit the market in Texas, your dream could be a reality.
3 Longbow Lane is on the market in Houston for $7.9 million, according to Chron. The home was built in 1967 by architect O'Neil Ford, who made the home a "fusion of Spanish, Mexican and mid-century architecture," said listing agent Ruthie Newberry Poerterfield. In this Circle Bluff mansion, you'll find interior courtyards, arches, carved wood doors and overhanging roofs. There's also a double-height atrium and an open, second-story gallery complete with Saltillo tile and mesquite flooring.
According to the listing, you'll also find a study with adjoining patios and gardens, a smokestack fireplace and a huge kitchen. As far as bedrooms go, there's the first-floor primary suite complete with two bathrooms and a dressing room. The home has a total of five secondary bedrooms plus four bathrooms. Out back, you'll find a pool house complete with a bar, two bathrooms, two pools and tiered patios.
Speaking of two pools, they are connected via underwater tunnel to make your way from pool to pool.
