Devonshire Contemporary Designed by Bill Larson Feels Like a Colorado Resort

“This house is all about the setting,” Compass Real Estate’s Becky Frey said. “It was built around the outdoors, with every room opening to a deck or balcony. You’d think you were in Colorado instead of within walking distance to Lovers Lane.”

That’s not at all surprising because it was designed by Bill Larson of Bill Larson Architects.

Combine this architectural talent with a custom homebuilder client, and the outcome is guaranteed to be impressive. 

Building a Devonshire Contemporary

When Jim Dauterman and his wife Jan decided to build their Devonshire contemporary, they wanted to feel like their principal home was a vacation home — private, secluded, and at one with nature. I don’t think they could have found a better site with mature trees, a pond, and a creek.

The 4,964-square-foot Devonshire contemporary was constructed with a blend of stone and warm wood, vaulted-and-beamed ceilings, and floor-to-ceiling windows offering a mountain resort ambiance even though you are in the heart of Dallas. There are views from every room and every angle.

One of the most dramatic features is the floating glass bridge from the first-floor primary suite to the family room.

The second level features a secondary living space, two more bedroom suites, an office nook, and balconies overlooking the backyard where terraces and stairs lead to the large patio, pond, and firepit.

“Everyone that has come into the house has been struck by how organic and warm it feels,” Frey said. “It really looks like a spread out of Architectural Digest.”

There are three bedrooms, three bathrooms, a powder bath, and a detached one-bedroom, one-bathroom guest house.

Frey listed 5610 Farquhar Ln. for $5.2 million on Oct. 3. She received an option contract Sunday, but I wouldn’t let that stop you from giving her a call. You never know what she has coming up next, and this house proves if you have a great house to sell, the market is still hot.
