Elegant Estate in Old Preston Hollow
This exquisite manor sits on a beautifully landscaped Preston Hollow 1.9 acre gated estate. Once you drive through the impressive iron gates, you continue along a flagstone lined cobblestone drive featuring a two tiered fountain that is centered in the middle of the circular drive. This custom estate home was built by Sebastian Construction Group with careful attention to every detail and is ideal for intimate gatherings or grand entertaining.
Guests are welcomed in the multi-level reception foyer that features marble floors and a double staircase ascending to the second level. The grand, two story formal living room has custom designed hardwood floors, detailed wall moldings, and magnificent views of the resort style pool and spa through the large windows. Located to the right of the entry way is the formal dining room with French doors opening to the front veranda and antique ceiling details framing the chandelier. The library is superb, embellished with 19th Century antique paneling and moldings, an imported French fireplace and set of French doors leading out to the front verandas.
The luxurious, oversized master suite includes a sitting area, beautifully detailed fireplace (imported from France), floor-to-ceiling barrel windows, and easy access to the verandas overlooking the pool. The marble master bath has a double shower, jetted tub, his-and-her vanities, separate walk-in closets with built-ins and cedar storage closet. The attached exercise room with mirrored wall and ballet bar completes the master wing.
The extraordinary kitchen with beamed ceilings and reclaimed French terracotta floors was built for the most discerning gourmet cook. A large center island with gas cook top, prep sink, generous cabinetry, and granite countertops is adjacent to the main counter and breakfast bar that seats eight comfortably. Both the kitchen and the breakfast area have views of the goldfish pond and terrace. Paired with the sunny keeping room, the kitchen was designed for today’s flexible lifestyle.
The main level also features entertaining spaces galore, including a state-of-the-art theatre with seating for twelve, a luxurious den with walls of windows, built-in cabinetry, and a cast stone fireplace. A card room with full bar facilities is adjacent to the climate controlled wine room (with over 1000 bottle capacity). Enjoy a tasting within your own private cellar. In addition, there is a guest bedroom with bath, two powder baths, and utility room on the first level. The elevator with 19th century doors services all levels of the home.
The second level includes three additional bedrooms each with full bath, a second den with balcony overlooking the grounds, and extra storage rooms. The motor court off the kitchen offers access to the five garage bays that are attached to the home plus the two car detached garage. Above the detached garage is a charming one bedroom guest apartment.
The grounds of this magnificent home are not to be missed. Extensive landscaped gardens and mature plantings were designed by landscape architect Harold Leidner. Along with the cabana, the pool and spa become your private resort. The cabana includes built in grill, full bar and bath. The pool and cabana area features a refreshing mist system for the comfort of your family and guests on warm summer days. Steps away are the koi pond, a goldfish pond, and beyond an intricate stone bridge over a creek leading to additional lawn beyond. You can walk or jog along the restful and private jogging trail that surrounds the property. This widely published home, with interior design by Richard Trimble, is a French getaway in the heart of Dallas.
