Nestled within the prestigious Mt. Vernon Addition to the Town of Highland Park in Dallas, a masterpiece of architectural ingenuity stands as a testament to collaboration, craftsmanship, and meticulous planning. This custom-built residence, a creation of @ferdowsbuilds in collaboration with @thomasweberarchitecture and @inkandorocreatives, bears the unmistakable touch of brilliance. The guidance of Hennessey Engineering ensured that every detail, from the foundation to the double layered slate rooftop, was meticulously considered, incorporating a double-layered rooftop clause for added structural integrity and insulation.
The culmination of a three-year construction process in 2023, this residence spans over 11,000 square feet across three floors, with an additional 3,200 square feet dedicated to a climate-controlled Auto Gallery on the lower level, boasting a remarkable nine parking bays. As one approaches the dwelling, an exquisite sculptural staircase, seemingly free-floating, welcomes inhabitants and guests alike, providing a captivating segue into the Formal Dining Room.
The ground floor, Main Level, unfolds with a circuitously situated Library off the foyer, offering a retreat for intellectual pursuits. The sightlines extend from the foyer to the open-spaced Living Room and Gourmet Kitchen, the former adorned with retractable doors leading to the North Portico overlooking an Infinity Edged pool and spa. Steps ascend gracefully to a Conversation Room, featuring Book Matched Black Calacatta Marble surfaces on the bar, shelving, and fireplace, evoking a sense of refined opulence. The Kitchen (and adjacent Catering) is equipped with top-of-the-line appliances from Sub-Zero, Wolf, and Fisher & Paykel. An outdoor Entertainment Center, complete with a Wolf gas grill, single burner, Sub-Zero refrigerator drawers, and pizza oven beckons for al fresco gatherings.
Ascending to the Upper Level reveals a haven of luxury housing five ensuite bedrooms, with a flexible room that can double as Bedroom 6. A full-service Laundry Room, boasting twin LG washers and dryers, ensures practical convenience. The Lower Level, dedicated to recreation, takes on a subterranean nature. A Spa Treatment Room, Fitness Room, and a Wine Bar with 500-bottle storage accompany a Hi-Fidelity Cinema, creating an indulgent retreat for relaxation and entertainment. Sliders open to the brilliantly lit Auto Gallery at this juncture.
Materials and fixtures throughout the residence are impeccably sourced, showcasing rich textures such as rift white oak, book-matched slab marbles, Chevron patterned flooring, cream matte finished plaster walls, and leathered counter surfaces. The pies de resistance may be the Riviera limestone used throughout the main arteries of the house; it also adorns the 4 fireplace openings. The atmosphere is further elevated by the highest level of building science, ensuring unparalleled air quality and a sound foundation. Floor-to-ceiling windows, fully retractable doors, and thoughtfully placed openings allow natural light to traverse the house, creating an ambiance that seamlessly blends the indoor and outdoor spaces.
The exterior grounds are a visual feast, featuring lush green landscapes and verdant hedge walls that ensure privacy. A resort-style pool and spa beckon for moments of relaxation, while an outdoor living center and north portico, accompanied by a backlit fireplace, provide a picturesque setting for dining and conversation. Beyond the pool, a surprise awaits with respect to entertainment! Unabashed luxury meets understated elegance in this residence, where every detail reflects a commitment to excellence and a celebration of refined living, reinforced by the incorporation of a double-layered rooftop clause for added structural durability and insulation.
