The temperatures will soon be dropping, the vacation laundry has all been done, and the kids will be heading back to school in the next couple of weeks. What better time to find the home of your dreams?
These local listings are spacious, gorgeous, and really, really expensive. Let’s take a look at this week’s open houses.
Modern Masterpiece
The new build at 11224 Northland Circle is a keeper.
With six bedrooms, five baths, and a three-car garage, there’s plenty of space for a large family and a gaggle of guests.
And what a space it is. With concrete masonry walls, floor-to-ceiling windows, and an open floor plan, this $3.3 million home has the feel of a sleek showpiece. A flat roof complements the curved facade. A courtyard is centered around a fire pit and a 750-square-foot covered patio with a built-in kitchen. Of course, there’s a swimming pool.
The Miele designer kitchen features an expansive bar, connecting with the main living area. A two-story window illuminates a floating staircase that connects the main living area to the upstairs family room.
It’s darn near the perfect home, elegant and comfortable at the same time. The Preston Hollow neighborhood is as upscale as they get, near the Dallas North Tollway, Preston Royal amenities, and the private school corridor.
Realtor Jimmy Ulik with Fraser Realty is hosting a broker’s open house from noon to 2 p.m. Thursday, Aug. 4.
Private And Serene
Get the best of both worlds with an $8.9 million castle on an acre-plus lot with room for RV parking.
The home at 4700 Dorset Road was featured recently on the top 10 most expensive listings in Texas.
Artfully redesigned by Moore Design Group, this rebuild and expansion has it all — two living rooms, two dining rooms, a pool, a spa with steam shower, an exercise room, and a basketball court.
The island kitchen features Viking appliances, a separate catering kitchen, butler area, and large pantry. The primary suite has a serene view of the private outdoor kitchenette and covered patio space. The new residents can find respite in the study or media room.
And wait, there’s more. A bonus 2,000-square-foot guest house has two bedrooms, a bathroom, and an outdoor patio.
Realtor Cindy Plano with Century 21 Mike Bowman is hosting open houses from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 6, and Sunday, Aug. 7.
Go Forth And Prosper
This one is all about the neighborhood.
Just shy of the $1 million mark, this listing in affluent Prosper is across the street from Omni PGA Frisco Resort.
The five-bedroom, four-bath abode at 1071 Shorecrest St. sits on a 8,276-square foot lot one block from trails leading to a neighborhood pool and amenity center with an outdoor kitchen, outdoor event lawn, and playground.
No detail is spared in this open floor plan. There’s a wrought-iron staircase, wood floors, and 8-foot interior doors.
An entertainer’s kitchen features Omegastone slab tops, Shaker cabinets, a five-burner gas cooktop with a glass canopy vent hood, stainless steel appliances, trash can drawer, island, and butler’s pantry. The master bath has a free-standing tub and separate vanities with rectangular sinks and a pebble shower floor.
This brand new build is energy-efficient and wired for smart TV. The kids will love the upstairs game room and media room — and the parents will love the proximity to Prosper ISD’s new Stuber Elementary School.
No additional taxes are assessed in this area for a Municipal Utility District or Public Improvement District. Realtor Stephen Brooks with Royal Realty Inc. is hosting open houses from 1 to 4 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 6, and Saturday, Aug. 13.
