California Dreamin’ on Such a Winter’s Day

There’s a lot of talk about second homes these days. And rightfully so. City life — for all its many positives — can get to any of us on a good day. Factor in COVID and… come the weekend, we’re all headin’ for the hills. Or the lakes. Or the beaches. 

What if you didn’t have to run very far because a luxe getaway was nearby? Better yet, within your very own property lines. That will be the case for the lucky buyer of 6517 Dykes Way. Listing agent Megan Stern says this one is “California dreaming right here in Texas.”

Set on more than half an acre, there are six bedrooms (including a guest suite with private entrance), six full baths, two half baths, two living areas, a game room, a study, exercise room, and media room. If you actually are from California, like the Bay area or the OC, you’ll think you’re dreaming but you’re not — all this for $2,950,000.

“The house is innovatively sited on an interior lot creating an outside environment rarely seen in Dallas,” says Stern. “You have the option to add on 1,000 additional feet of living space thanks to the automatic phantom screens on the patio. And then there’s the Lynx outdoor kitchen. And the pool. And the putting green. Everything about it evokes the feeling of resort living but with excellent privacy and security.” 

Inside, she says it’s an elegant contemporary masterpiece that matches a modern-day lifestyle by offering the highest levels of design, finishes, and amenities.

Take for instance the Cantoni chandelier in the 18-person dining room. The gallery walls for an art collection. The YKK commercial doors and windows. And the whole-home automation system, safe room, and dedicated network closet with the separate cooling system… 

We could keep raising the word count, telling you about the many, many, many highlights, but instead, how about we let the pictures do the talking?
