D Sale of the Week: Beauty on Belmead: It’s All About Outside
This new listing at 6424 Belmead Drive on one acre is lush with fresh design and clean lines for secluded living in the city. Located on a tucked-away street in the north-east periphery of Preston Hollow, the 5868 square foot home was completed in 2008 to merge with the land and make outdoor living daily life. Architect Bentley Tibbs achieved that with, among other things, 2000 square feet of covered porches and a stacked-stone outdoor fireplace. The home’s front yard is surrounded by a rolling berm designed so children can roll down the grass; verdant evergreens create a natural front fence. Outside there are fountains, an outdoor kitchen, cabana, and guest quarters, all viewing the pool and separate spa. Who needs to go in?
You do. Interiors are a refreshing design change from the Park Cities/Preston Hollow stone and stucco ordinary: the home, completed in 2008, is all on one-story. Get out the smelling salts: no towers, no turrets. Stained concrete and quarter sawn floors flow; state of the art kitchen includes mahogany cabinets, freezer drawers, Advantium microwave, and Danby marble counters. Four bedrooms: master overlooks the acreage like the Lord of the Manor room. Four and two half baths, formals, family and game room, and two offices where they should be, off the master bedroom. $3,695,000 prices it below $4 million in an area that is gaining ground as a haven for haute modern design. We had to post this brand-spanking new listing fast; we know it won’t last long. Price: $3,695,000. Agent: Erin Mathews, Mathews-Nichols, Allie Beth Allman: 972.733.8448
