This High Caliber Home of the Week, sponsored by Lisa Peters of Caliber Home Loans is like a golden unicorn appearing right before your eyes.
Nestled on a .37-acre lot, 11842 Doolin Court is one of only eight homes in the exclusive gated neighborhood of Iris Hollow, located just west of Hillcrest Road on Forest Lane.
Actually, this 3.5-acre neighborhood once had a Forest Lane address when it was the family estate of the late C.E. Doolin, the legendary inventor of the Frito corn chip and Cheeto. His late wife Kitty, who invented Frito pie and Frito jets (corn chips dipped in chocolate), cultivated more than 110 varieties of irises, thousands of which were planted on the estate.
Sharif & Munir Custom Homes saved many of those irises and replanted them along the front entrance to Iris Hollow, a gated community of eight homes ranging from 4,000 to 7,500 square feet on 0.3 acre lots.
Sam Claussen of Compass RE Texas has the Iris Hollow listing at 11842 Doolin Court, a four-bedroom, four and half-bath home with 5,241-square-feet. Actually, it was custom-built by Michael Munir of Sharif & Munir, so you know the attention to detail is second to none.
“Located in the picturesque and exclusive Iris Hollow, the property is incredibly central while exceptionally private,” Claussen says. “Plus, I think this home really feels and lives larger than 5,241 square feet.”
The home has three living areas: an expansive living room that opens to the kitchen, and two wonderfully comfortable den or family rooms with lots of built-in custom cabinetry for storage.
The gourmet kitchen features an expansive eat-in island with top of the line appliances such as Sub-Zero refrigerator, six-burner Wolf gas cooktop, Wolf convection oven, Wolf steam oven, and twin dishwashers. A wet bar has additional cooled wine and beverage drawers along with a pebble ice maker.
The first-floor master retreat has two entirely separate bathrooms, closets, and toilet rooms, split by the freestanding Jacuzzi tub and shower. Now that’s the key to domestic bliss.
Sam Claussen with Compass RE Texas has listed 11842 Doolin for $1.995 million. For a complete look, take a look at the virtual tour.
