Gated. Private. Completely stunning. That’s the townhome we’re talking about today. It was built in 2004-2005 by Hawkins-Welwood and if that name sounds familiar, it should. They’ve been building gorgeous homes in the Metroplex for the past 30 years. We recently wrote about their first-ever Richardson venture that’s listed at over $1 million.
Back in the early 2000s, Hawkins-Welwood built a big chunk of Preston Hollow, and they’re also very well known in Highland Park. If you’re interested in that level of construction but are looking for a slightly lower price tag, here it is.
It’s not just the fabulous finish out, teamo dreamo location, or the fact that Preston Trails and Bent Tree Country Club are basically 10 minutes away, this townhome is also DECKED OUT.
Briggs Freeman Sotheby’s agent Jan Baldwin said it’s the second home she’s sold for the couple and both are loaded with the wife’s impeccable taste. I said surely, she must be a designer. Nope. Just incredibly gifted at putting together a room.
The townhome has soaring ceilings, hardwoods, plantation shutters and a cast stone fireplace. Which, as Baldwin pointed out, is to be expected in a home of the stature. It’s open, it’s airy and filled with natural light. Back to the owner’s exquisite touches — she added high-end fixtures that are yours to keep.
There’s also a private courtyard that’s paved in flagstone, but Baldwin said if you had a small dog, she believes you could convert it to grass — heck, you could even add turf.
Speaking of, there’s a huge open green space out back, which is pretty baller to live in the heart of the city and not have any neighbors behind you.
As far as the community goes, it’s quiet, it’s upscale, it’s a little chi-chi. There’s a pool, a workout facility, and a separate barbecue area all included in the HOA. Not to mention it feeds into Brentfield Elementary.
Briggs Freeman’s Jan Baldwin has the stunning three-bedroom, two-bathroom townhome at 17222 Lechlade Lane listed at $389,900.
