Cowboy Up, Y’all: Curbed National Finds Hunter’s Paradise in Celina, Texas
Share News:
Yeehaw, folks. We sometimes joke around about “head rooms” and such here on CandysDirt.com, but this Celina mansion marketed by Briggs Freeman Sotheby’s own Brian Luker and David Bergher has a trophy room that earns a gold star in my book. Curbed National picked up this listing, calling it an “equestrian amusement park.”
In fact, this entire estate — all 314 acres of it — is a trophy. This equestrian compound is on the market for $15 million, which is a bargain for a 15,000-square-foot home with seven-car garage, heated pool, spa, wine cellar, three stock ponds, two arenas, mare motel, ranch managers home, stall barn, equipment barn, etc.
If you think the country life has to be remote, think again. This mansion is just 45 minutes from downtown Dallas and 10 minutes from the Dallas North Tollway.
Now, if you’re squeamish, you can always redecorate. I kind of love the amount of kitsch that comes with the various stuffed creatures reigning over rooms in the house. The leopard next to the fireplace in the bathroom is just hanging out, you know. And the two black bears in the bedroom, well, that’s inspirational.
I think this property is the perfect weekend home for the horse-obsessed hunter or weekend cowboy. What about you?

That "head room" is great. I can picture a father with a daughter of dating age making that as his "office" and invite any suitors to it while he's cleaning his guns. Would weed out the rif-raf. 🙂
Seriously this is a beautiful estate and nicely priced for all the land and high end facilities that come with the home.

May sound picky but the listing saying it's 45 mins to downtown Dallas is misleading. That may be the case after 800pm at night or during the weekend. I think listing the miles would be more accurate.

I love this house, drive by it every day taking my son to school. It is a real diamond and very well priced.

All the dead animals are disgusting! That looks like a sociopath's home to me. What a complete turn-off!

I love the way the arena dirt is combed, kind of like vacuuming the carpet all one way! Remind me to write up my animal head story (speaking of disgusting…)
I thought that was beautiful too.
