Living in Preston Hollow affords you something very highly sought after these days — breathing room. Breathing room plus large lots with lush, mature landscaping. On those lush lots are spacious homes with expansive kitchens, bedroom suites, and tons of outdoor living.
The home at 6130 Desco Drive, listed by John Weber of Compass, strikes an elusive balance of enormous capacity, unmistakable luxury, and good taste. Plus it’s just plain gorgeous: 7,093 square feet, five en suite bedrooms, five full baths, three half baths, media room, playroom, and a three-car garage on .45 acres in the heart of one of the city’s most coveted neighborhoods.
“It’s a lush space, almost half an acre, and close to Preston Hollow Park,” says Weber, “it is so well-suited to a large family, with each bedroom having its own full bathroom.”
All this being said, don’t feel bad if the first thing you notice is the floor. It’s amazing: rich hickory hardwood almost all throughout the house. Right inside the front door multiple high-ceilinged spaces flow together to the welcoming foyer.
In the den, the lighter shade of the hardwood floors plays off dark wooden ceiling beams, making for a strong accent of earth tones that combines with abundant natural light through the windows covering one wall.
Attend the open house for 6130 Desco Drive this Sunday, Jan. 17 from 2 to 4 p.m.
The kitchen flows off this space.
“It has professional series appliances and quartzite counters,” Weber points out. The ample area features an island that fits multiple place settings.
Two staircases lead up to a striking open space upstairs, to say nothing of the broad game room that adjoins it. Right now there’s a piano staged in this area, but it’s an empty canvas.
The game room is perfect for a pool table, or even a generously outfitted man cave.
Of course there’s also the movie theater to consider for man-cave status. It could seat at least six, or become a temple to football games and action flicks for one lucky guy.
Among the home’s five bedrooms, three are upstairs. The master suite is downstairs, with a separate tub-shower, his and hers sinks, and two closets.
Rounding out the home’s amenities is the stone cooking space out back, including both a fireplace and outdoor barbecue, right alongside a swimming pool and spa.
