Old Preston Hollow is a great place to take a Sunday drive. The hilly terrain, huge trees, and private estate properties can elicit a car full of “oohs,” “aahs” and “what ifs” from even the hardest to impress. It’s fun to imagine who lives on the other side of the gates and walls and what it would be like to have celebrities as neighbors or to grow up with a yard as big as Big Bend (in a child’s eyes anyway).
Take 9441 Hollow Way Road, currently listed by Megan Stern of Dave Perry-Miller. It features six bedrooms, seven baths, and two half-baths, plus a three-car garage.
“With its gorgeous floating staircase in the foyer, the incredible number of floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the heavily wooded property, four fireplaces and 24-ft. high ceilings, this home has everything you thight it might — and more,” Stern says, “The family who built it in 1986 still lives here, in large part because of its timelessness. They are ready to pass it along to someone else who can appreciate its many offerings and enhance them to their own liking.”
Among those offerings: 9,002 square feet on 1.01 acres (per tax rolls)! Roaming the grounds or the halls of inlaid marble and expansive hardwood flooring, can easily help you meet your step goals for the day.
But for all the spaciousness, the rooms feel amazingly warm and inviting instead of cold and cavernous. The dining room, at 16-by-22 square feet, has plenty of space for your heirloom pieces plus a table for 12. And the main living room with full bar and coffered ceilings is approx. 1,000 sq. ft.
In other words, this home is big on BIG!
The downstairs primary suite, nicely sized at 22-by-27 square feet, has a large sitting area and true dual baths. You can pop into the adjacent office as needed and take care of business, or step out onto the private patio to wind up for the day with coffee or down for the evening with a nice glass of cab.
Also downstairs: an additional ensuite bedroom, media room, home gym and utility room. Upstairs are the remaining secondary bedrooms, all with private baths and walk-in closets
If you’re into keeping up with the Joneses or the Cubans or whomever, the home’s exterior offerings include a fenced pool, separate guest quarters with full bath and kitchenette, and a north/south tennis court (if you know, you know).
9441 Hollow Way Road is priced at $3.9 million. Contact listing agent Megan Stern at 214.912.0425 or [email protected].
