A Private Texas Retreat -- Just 30 Minutes from Downtown Dallas Completely reimagined in 2023, this breathtaking estate blends luxury, craftsmanship, and serenity across 15+ acres of fenced and cross-fenced land. Every inch of the home was gutted and remodeled with spray foam insulation, offering energy efficiency and modern comfort. Custom features abound, from the standing seam metal roof and custom gutters and leader heads- to the oversized pool that anchors your personal oasis. Step outside and experience a true stay-cation sanctuary. A 2 bed 1 bath,1100 Sqft. Second residence or Pool house, A custom-built cedar garden shed with a double-lock copper porch roof, pitched zinc double-lock standing seam metal roof, decorative brass lead coated ridge cresting, and lead coated copper finials add timeless charm. Stroll across the covered bridge spanning the creek to reach a tranquil pond tucked at the back of the property, a storybook setting for morning coffee or sunset reflections. The grounds are a masterpiece of landscaping, with a golf course-like yard that invites barefoot walks and weekend gatherings. Whether you're hosting guests or seeking solitude, this property delivers unmatched peace and privacy, all within a 30-minute commute to downtown Dallas. This is more than a home. It's a lifestyle. A legacy. A rare opportunity to own a slice of your own Texas paradise. The true beauty of this property cannot be fully captured in photos--an in-person visit is essential to appreciate its charm and appeal.
