Monday Morning Millionaire: Want New Construction in The Park Cities? You Can Have it With Tatum Brown Custom Homes

Share News:

Do you have your coffee yet? Good, because this house is like a beignet from Cafe Du Monde. This house, it just makes me want to say “Ahhhhhhhh!” It’s 3625 Bryn Mawr, marketed by the gorgeous and talented Kari Schlegel Kloewer of Allie Beth Allman & Associates, and it was just completed by the experts at Tatum Brown Custom Homes.

If you want high-end finish-out and tons of extras, Tatum Brown is the go-to builder. In fact, this company is on our short list of Hot Builders!

Just from glancing around, you can see why we love Tatum Brown, too! I mean, look at the thoughtful entrance that keeps with the elegant and modern Santa Barbara style. It’s beautiful, but not too ostentatious. This home, desiged by Stocker, Hoestry, Montenegro Architects, is like a hot brunette in a little black dress!

This University Park home has all of the upgrades and add-ons you want inside its 6,651 square feet. You get impeccable hardwood floors, floor-to-ceiling windows, luxury light fixtures with some really killer chandeliers, marble, granite, and a wet bar. WHEW. That’s a lot!

There are five bedrooms and five and a half bathrooms, along with three living spaces, two dining rooms, a game or media room, a mud room, and some of the best schools in the state.

I love a kitchen that is open and accessible, and this one is just that! The huge island is perfect for entertaining. Imagine the marble expanse covered in cheese boards and fruit plates, with a bucket of chilled champagne and orange juice just waiting for brunch guests to arrive!

Of course, there’s tons of stainless in the kitchen, and there’s some really beautiful tile in the backsplash, too!

From what I hear, it’s almost impossible to buy new construction in the Park Cities without buying a teardown first, razing the structure, and starting fresh from there. If you get exhausted just thinking about all that work, well, this lovely home is for you!

It’s on the market at a great price, too. I think $2.95 million is a fair asking for such a spacious, modern, and well-thought-out home. What do you think?

    I marvel at the work SOME of our builders create here in Dallas. Tatum Brown has absolutely outdone themselves on this one. And wait 'till I show you the latest master piece from Classic Urban Homes. I love our home builders, our APPROVED homebuilders. We approve only a limited amount of home builders to advertise on our site. They are the highest quality home builders who we personally know through friends who have worked with them and lived in their homes for more than a few years. They are who we would hire to build our homes in a New York minute. Other publications may take ads from builders to plump up pages, but we remain a real estate boutique. Our builders advertise through invitation only. Tatum Brown is one of them.

    I call it the mini-museum look and think it is just about perfect for its time if you have zip cash or financing.

    LOVE IT! Just wish it were on a bigger lot. That nice covered porch (or whatever fancy schmancy word that means porch) looks at the side of the neighbor's house. LOVE that master bath!

    That's Park Cities for you. Want a big lot? The folks next door to Troy Aikman paid, what 6 or 7 million just for a lot? I would take less lot in the near future. We have an acre and we don't use it anymore. I want a sliver of grass, a pool, and some flower beds, that's it. I am going to have to fight my husband for another pool. He thinks they waste resources. I live in mine. I even go in it alone with Bree life-guarding — the other day I decided I had better stop: if I croak in the pool, that will really hurt re-sale value! Which led us to wonder: if someone dies in a home, you have to report it if it is not of natural causes. Well, what about a death in a pool?????

    Tatum Brown knows how to build the perfect home. What I love about this beauty is how it blends California style with its clean lines, but doesn't stray too far from the traditional roots Dallas is known for. I would live in this beauty in a heartbeat knowing it would appreciate when I was ready to sell. Well done Tatum Brown. Thanks for sharing Candy!!
