Houston Oaks Residence, Cool Blue Hockley, Texas
Set within the pastoral calm of Houston Oaks, this modern farmhouse reinterprets rural living with a quiet sense of elegance and ease. Designed as a full-time residence, the home balances open, light-filled spaces with a grounded material palette that draws from traditional farmhouse roots. Reclaimed stone, weathered beams, and plaster walls establish warmth and texture, while crisp lines and restrained detailing lend a contemporary clarity. Interiors unfold with an effortless flow, creating spaces equally suited to everyday family life and relaxed entertaining, from intimate sitting areas to generous communal rooms. Throughout, rustic elements are softened by refined finishes and an understated color story, allowing the architecture and materials to take the lead. Welcoming without nostalgia and polished without formality, the house offers a composed, livable retreat that feels both timeless and deeply at home in its rural setting.
