Smart builders create smart homes. This innovative modern is a spectacular example of that.  Freestyle Custom Homes is responsible for this stylish and incredibly sensible home. When you see it, you have to wonder why logic is not on the top of every builder’s list.

From my perspective, there are a few must-haves in any new construction. Today, every single home needs a guest suite with a private entry and access to a kitchen and laundry area. We have so many medical professionals, front line workers, college kids returning home, and grandparents moving in for extended stays, this is now essential. Life changed, and home designs had to adapt. Freestyle is leading by example with this innovative modern home just east of Midway in one of Dallas’s hottest new areas.

That secondary kitchen has been on builders’ radar for a few years, but having it open to a guest suite is genius. We all love a great open-plan home, but no one ever wants to watch meal prep or clean up. Second kitchens are a necessity.

The other important feature of any home with more than one story is an elevator. No one wants to schlep laundry or luggage up and down the stairs, and if you’ve ever had a ski injury, the last thing you want to deal with is stairs. Again, just smart, common-sense building here.

Dual closets are another critical element in any home and what I love about this one is how well it’s thought-out. There’s also a coffee bar in the principal bedroom, and you can enjoy that latte on the balcony.

If you are moving here from outside of Dallas, this is the perfect spot to land, especially with kids. First of all, you have 3,833-square-feet with four bedrooms, four bathrooms, and a powder bath.

This is the private school corridor, and The Episcopal School of Dallas is just across Midway Road. The beauty of this innovative modern luxury lease is it’s available for rent or purchase. Let’s think about that for a moment. You could buy it and then turn around and lease it out.

When I rang up Briggs Freeman’s Janelle Alcantara, who has this stellar listing, she said, “There is a huge shortage of luxury rental properties. So, if you decided to purchase and then rent it out, it would be a solid investment. This area is what Midway Hollow and Inwood Park were five years ago. In five years, the housing prices almost doubled, and the same thing will happen here.”  

Alcantara has 4242 Bonham Street listed for rent at $7,950 per month or for sale at $969,900.
