If this contemporary modern smart home at 5980 Melshire Drive were a student in school, its report card would pretty much blow your mind.
The Preston Hollow stunner excels in every subject, and according to listing agents Dixey Arterburn and Janna Schick with Dave Perry-Miller Real Estate, the five-bedroom, 5.2-bath home also makes the grade when it comes to entertaining — indoors and outdoors. The home is listed for $4,250,000.
“It was originally a Ron Davis Showcase home,” Arterburn said, “with designer touches, textures, natural elements and abundant light. The floating staircase at the entry, the museum walls, the high ceilings and the wall of windows all give it a magazine-worthy aesthetic.
“When you add in functional features like Gaggenau appliances, a waterfall breakfast bar, a temperature-controlled wine room, extra large workout room with rubber flooring, downstairs primary suite and more, it is the full package.”
Highlights of this 6,786-square-foot home include a new Tahitian pool and spa, and an outdoor kitchen/living center. With just a few taps on your iPhone or Android, you can also lower the recently installed electric shades, turn down the lights and raise the volume on the whole-house sound system. With 14 audio zones and 14 TVs throughout, you can pretty much raise the roof, too.
“It’s so thoughtfully built and equipped,” Schick added. “Along with the extensive amenities, location and convenience are other big selling points. The Cooper Aerobics Center is literally across the street, several schools are nearby, and three grocery stores plus several popular restaurants are just blocks away in Preston Forest.”
For the car fanatic or large family, the seller has also added more concrete parking and a shade sail in back, which when added to the three-car garage, accommodates a total of seven cars.
And from a practicality and comfort standpoint, you would be prepared for anything here. Should the power go out during another Snowmaggedon, there’s a new 50KW whole-house generator.
“The house also has a tornado safe room discreetly hidden behind a bookshelf,” Arterburn said. “It’s on its own electric or grid system with heat and air. Truly everything has been thought of!”
“This special retreat is going to make somebody very happy,” Schick concluded.
