I cannot believe that this home is still, STILL, on the market. The agent, Karen Luter, is one of the hardest working agents in town, a genius who has marketed her fingers to the bone for 8915 Douglas. It’s the home of a Dallas icon for Lord’s sake, and now it has been reduced AGAIN to $2,799,999 from an original high of $3,300,000, which had been lowered to $2,990,999. I mean, what gives. Brian Hagan tells me that dirt is now running at $2,500,000 per acre in the honeypot. This property backs to the Dallas North Tollway has one house buffering it from the North Dallas Tollway, but you are getting 1.050 acres, so who cares? Located on a delicious part of Douglas your neighbors are: Angel Rangel, Baxter Brinkman x three, Lawrence Wolfish, and EyeMart Express honcho Dr. Douglas Barnes, who has the best-looking grass on the street. It’s fake, and I love it!
Here are the vitals: 12,115 square feet, 4 car garage, 6 bedrooms, six full and two half baths, three living areas, guest quarters, huge kitchen with breakfast area, stunning master with iconic pink Mary Kay marble tub and fixtures, marble floors, fountains, pool, cabana, pool fashioned after the pool at the famous San Simeon, the California estate of William Randolph Hearst.
Yes, it needs work, and pink may not be your thing. (Why not?) This home is reduced now enough to accommodate a remodel. Surely some high-level Mary Kay sales executive who has sold a bazillion tubes of True Dimension Wild About Pink can fork over the bucks to live in their namesake’s castle?????
