Warm, Charming Highland Park Home

Perched on a Highland Park corner lot, this inviting, elegant, and warm 5 bedroom, 5.2 bathroom home has unlimited opportunity.

When you walk in, you’re greeted by high ceilings and a beautiful overlook — and a formal dining room and formal living room are waiting for you on either side. The kitchen is instantly inviting, and is fitted with a Wolf range, Sub-Zero fridge/freezer, walk-in pantry, and beverage fridge drawers. Nearby, you’ll find refrigerated wine storage for 1,200+ bottles, a large utility room, a butler’s pantry, and a breakfast room with access to the side yard.

As you leave the kitchen, the family room is waiting for you — and built-ins, hardwood throughout, and a fireplace make it an irresistible place to cozy up. The downstairs also hosts a study with private loggia along with the primary bedroom, which includes vaulted ceilings, windows overlooking the backyard, separate baths and vanities, a walk-in shower, and a large walk-in closet with custom built-ins.

Upstairs (you can take the elevator!), you’ll find 4 en-suite bedrooms with large walk-in closets, as well as a game room. Upstairs also plays host to a bonus room (so many possibilities — an exercise room, a nanny’s apartment, or a mother-in-law suite) featuring French doors, a Juliet balcony, a kitchenette, an en-suite bathroom, and a walk-in closet.

You can choose to leave the bonus room from the back staircase if you wish, and you’ll head outside to find a three-car garage, a turf side yard oasis, and a turf backyard featuring an outdoor fireplace, built-in grill, and two fountain features.

In a coveted lot with tons of natural light, this charming home is ready to move into now — and its tasteful additions and elegant floor plan make it the perfect choice.

The Neighborhood: Highland Park

Considered one of the country's most sought-after neighborhoods, the Town of Highland Park, Texas has an international reputation for the finest in residences, education, and city management. Highland Park, together with its next-door neighbor University Park, constitute the so-called Park Cities. Even before its incorporation in 1913, city fathers set out to create an oasis of residential living as the neighboring city of Dallas grew. Today, this 2.26-square-mile area on the outskirts of downtown Dallas boasts the names of individuals and families associated with Fortune 500 companies as well as historic legends. From newly relocated families to multi-generation "Parkies," their reason for living in Highland Park is simple: they demand the very best in their homes, surroundings and lifestyles.

Whether it's a multi-acre estate with tennis courts and indoor pools, or a simple 2,500-square-foot cottage with gourmet kitchen, real estate in Highland Park is in high demand and short on availability. Besides having one of the best locations in North Texas, Highland Park homes are known for being built with the finest professional teams and materials available while maintaining the integrity of the area.

To complement this manner of living, Highland Park has long placed great emphasis on the natural beauty of the area. From its inception, city fathers insisted that at least 20% of its developed land be dedicated to park space. Today, Highland Park's numerous manicured parks and the magnificent Turtle Creek, which runs through the town, provide a respite for its residents.
