Imagine being able to host friends and family at a July fourth cookout and pool party, with a brief break for a quick walk to the popular and traditional Park Cities Fourth of July parade — because we just found the perfect house for just that very thing.
This four bedroom, five-and-a-half bath (in the main house, that is) Tudor located at 4012 Shenandoah St., in University Park is 6,727 square feet of living space custom designed in 1986 by architect Cole Smith. And it’s less than a minute walk to the corner of Preston Road and Shenandoah, where you can catch the parade every year (the parade starts at Euclid and Drexel in Highland Park, then travels up Euclid to Lakeside to Beverly, and then up Preston before turning onto University and ending at Goar Park in University Park).
Literally, by this time next year you could be hosting a Park Cities parade-and-pool party of your own.
Inside, the first floor features a formal living and formal dining space, a sunroom, a powder room, a walk-in bar area with its own refrigerator and ice maker, and four — count ‘em — four fireplaces.
And downstairs is also home to a dream kitchen with more dining space, two butler’s pantries — one with an additional dishwasher — and a silver closet.
The second floor has four bedrooms, five bathrooms and a master suite with a sitting area and fireplace.
The third floor offers workout space and additional storage. A four-car garage includes a garage apartment above with two bedrooms and one bath.
Outside, you have lush grounds with a pool and a ground-floor full bath attached to the garage, making for easy access for soaked guests.
The home is listed for $2,995,000, and the listing agent is Mike Redden with Bill Griffin Real Estate.
