Colorful yet refined spaces, designer finishes, high ceilings, and oversized windows captivate at a new listing in the heart of Old Highland Park. The property is full of personality and wow moments thanks to its sellers. Their superb taste and forward-thinking design team transformed it into one of the most stunning homes in the Park Cities. Now, it can be yours.
When the sellers first discovered 3637 Maplewood Avenue, its French Provincial style reeled them in. However, they knew they needed more space and that they would put their spin on it.
Today, following an extensive renovation and addition, every inch of the 8,256-square-foot home exudes polished yet unfussy beauty. Renowned designer Jan Showers crafted the masterful interiors in collaboration with J+L Design. Meanwhile, JJGDesign conceptualized all the architectural changes with Ornata Residential building it out to perfection.
Refreshed Residence in Old Highland Park
Arriving at the refreshed residence, a stately French-style façade greets you. Manicured, symmetrical landscaping designed by Southern Botanical can’t help but make you smile as you approach the front door. Inside, the Parisian-esque foyer boasts checkered marble flooring and a grand curving staircase with a suave temperature-controlled wine room tucked below. This space is just a glimmer of the eye-catching designs and luxuries to expect at every turn.
Showers, who had serendipitously worked on the home with the last owners, was familiar with the property and knew just how to give it new life. Embracing color — from shades of blue and teal to blush and peach — the designer adorned the Old Highland Park home with warmth and vibrance. Perhaps nowhere is as cheerful as the sun-drenched solarium that leads out to the backyard. There, you can read and relax surrounded by blue wallpaper as the kids splash and play.
The designer focused on creating a timeless atmosphere where one could mix furnishings, periods, and patterns. The hand-painted wallpaper in the dining room, new moldings around the doorways, and all-white Christopher Peacock kitchen will simply never go out of style.
Since its impeccable transformation, the C-shaped home with constant pool views has graced the cover of Luxe Magazine and been featured in D Magazine. Truly a design feat and gem on the market, it’s a home to cherish for a lifetime.
With five bedrooms and flexibility for more as the fitness room and playroom both have ensuites, it can meet your needs for decades. Not to mention, the location is impossible to beat. The Old Highland Park home sits on a quiet, secluded Highland Park street conveniently walkable to Dallas Country Club, Armstrong Elementary, and Hackberry Creek.
