This expansive one and a half story home was taken to the studs, reimagined and expanded in 2017 with an open floor plan and a seamless flow from room to room. The majority of the square footage is located on the main floor, with four bedrooms on one level and two additional guest suites upstairs. The first floor is anchored by a chef’s kitchen with Quartz counters, premium appliances, dual dishwashers, and an oversized island overlooking a breakfast area as well as a spacious living room with gas fireplace and custom built-ins. Adjacent to the main living area is a formal dining room with a sitting area and doors that slide open to a courtyard for seamless indoor-outdoor connection, perfect for entertaining. The floor plan offers multiple living areas on the main level as well as a game room and media room upstairs. The primary suite features spacious dimensions with a private bath that includes separate vanities, a soaking tub and separate oversized shower along with a spacious walk in closet. A dedicated office and three additional guest suites round out the first floor with two additional bedrooms and a shared bath upstairs. A private backyard features a separate courtyard with pergola and a built-in grill and entertaining area. New roof in 2025. Situated in desirable Melshire Estates which is the epicenter for many of Dallas’ most coveted private schools as well as all the shopping and dining that the area has to offer.
