While we love a good classic, there’s something to be said for a home that lives a little on the edge. You want to hit that sweet spot between timeless and trendy, using classic lines and shapes while incorporating new materials or applications. And that’s exactly why we’re head over heels for this listing from John Zimmerman of Compass in Fort Worth. This home uses dramatic shapes and colors, merging industrial-cool finishes with warm woods and spectacular lighting that defines transitional style.
“This home has a functional layout, transitional finishes, and meticulous craftsmanship throughout,” notes Zimmerman. Plus, it’s located on Crestwood Drive, one of the most sought-after streets in this Fort Worth enclave.
The home has an extremely cozy formal living area, complete with vaulted ceiling clad in a breathtaking mix of natural wood. The Crestwood home benefited from a builder with vision, as the builder didn’t throw away the baby with the bathwater and preserved the formal living room’s brick fireplace from the original home.
There are two living areas and two dining areas in this super fresh 2019 build. There are five bedrooms and five full plus one-half bath in the 4,912-square-foot home. With two fireplaces and tons of windows, you’re sure to find the perfect place for your reading chair come fall weather, though I know I’d stay close to the den, especially considering its proximity to the gorgeous gourmet kitchen and fully kitted-out wet bar.
“The kitchen opens to the formal dining room and casual living, and features marble counters, separate refrigerator and freezer, gas cooktop with grill, double ovens, and walk-in pantry,” Zimmerman notes.
There’s an additional first-floor study and master suite with utility in closet and access to the huge patio. On the second floor, four en-suite bedrooms make sure that there is plenty of room for everyone. The fourth bedroom could be a game room and full-sized utility.
“Exceptional entertaining indoors or out,” says Zimmerman. “The outdoor living area includes a fireplace and barbecue grill overlooking the great backyard!”
John Zimmerman with Compass in Fort Worth has listed 113 Crestwood Drive for $1.399 million. See it in person at the open house on Saturday, Sept. 21, from 10 a.m. to noon.
