Priceless Preston Hollow? JK. It’s $775,000

This week’s Saturday Seven Hundred whisks us away to that green grassy plot of paradise – Preston Hollow.

Not just ANY Preston Hollow either. It’s a newer build (2014), it has everything you need (see list below), it’s generous, ample, (supple even?), and under one million. Under $900k. Under $800k. GASP. It’s currently listed at $775,000. 

The current owners built the house themselves. Not with their bare hands (See 7145 Shook Avenue), but they HAD it built. By qualified professionals. Quite qualified in fact. One owner works in the construction field and you know how when you’re around an industry every day of your life you tend to be a bit more of a nitpicker? We imagine that happened here. Compass’ Kyle Baugh said one of the perks is higher grade insulation and the house is green build certified. Since the owner works in lumber, it’s a safe bet all the framing is top-notch, too. They’ve also been there for five years and from the looks of it, never even thought of spilling something or making a mess. It’s spotless. 

The other thing about this house is it’s so well put together; you’d think it was staged. It really helps you see what the space can be.

As for location, we already told you all you need to know – Preston Hollow.

It’s on a street where homes easily go for over $900,000 so to have this polished a property for under $800k is pretty impressive. 

Adding to the location, Episcopal School of Dallas is right across the street. It’s near all the private schools and close to Northhaven Park, too. Northwest Highway, Walnut Hill, Midway, everything is close by. This is the perfect pocket for a small family or anyone looking for a transitional home that almost skews modern inside. 

Now remember when we said there’s a LOT packed into this very well laid out 2,918 square feet. So much so that we can’t possibly talk about it all or we’d run out of Internet? Well, here’s that list you’ve all been waiting for…Four bedrooms, three bathrooms, one powder room, large kitchen with island and breakfast bar, living room, bonus loft game room, private office, dining room, and breakfast nook.

If you’d like to take a look at 4223 Merrell Road, give Baugh a call. He’ll gladly give you the grand tour.
