A Highland Park Treasure, Meticulously Transformed

Just off the Dallas North Tollway and Mockingbird Lane, Southern Avenue in the west end of Highland Park exudes elegance and charm. Here, residents enjoy proximity to world-class shopping at Highland Park Village and world-class schools in Highland Park ISD’s coveted Bradfield Elementary. To the east, the iconic Dallas Country Club invites tee-offs and other outdoor activities in a pristinely manicured setting. To the south, all the excitement of a bustling Uptown is at your fingertips. Within this epicenter of incredible location, Laura Michelle of Dave Perry-Miller Real Estate has listed a head-turning five-bedroom transitional at 4517 Southern Ave.

Owned and remodeled by a meticulous interior designer, this 5,766-square-foot gem is listed for $3,695,000. Back in 2016, we gave you an exclusive sneak peek at this Highland Park Mediterranean on Southern Avenue, sharing the level of detail that went into building this three-story home.

Upon entering the home, it’s apparent how thoughtful the design actually is. Warm hardwood floors and complementing finishes give this interior a high-class, contemporary feel.

Immediately to the left is a formal sitting room with an incredible custom limestone fireplace. Also, recessed lighting and an eye-catching chandelier set the tone for style. To the right, a beautiful formal dining room that’s perfect for entertaining greets you.

There is also a lacquered powder room with a floating marble sink that adds that extra element of elegance to this layout. Then, a pass-through library with a wet bar leads you into the heart of this home.

The kitchen and great room are open and airy, featuring a wall of lacquered built-ins. Also, a custom marble fireplace sets this space off. Then, the gourmet kitchen seamlessly transitions over striking double islands.

The kitchen is a true gourmet paradise. It features an oversized gas range, a stainless steel Viking appliance package, and no shortage of striking counter space and cabinetry. Plus, it has a wine refrigerator and a generous walk-in pantry with built-in china cabinet.

The primary bedroom is a knockout. Here, vaulted ceilings, dual French doors, and another elegant fireplace define its distinction. This room also features remote-operated Sanderson drapes imported from England.

Then, the primary bath is a spa retreat. This escape features a beautiful marble ensconced soaking tub, elegant vanities, and an incredible walk-in shower.  The his-and-hers closets are the size of small bedrooms, and a bay of windows brings an ambiance of light into the room.

Upstairs, there’s an open sitting room with four additional en suite bedrooms with walk-in closets, plus an office. Plenty of space for the family to spread out.

The backyard is showstopping. It’s fully turfed and features an elegant pool to make the perfect backyard oasis.

It’s also worth noting that this home features two single-car garages with 12-foot ceilings. Commercial car lifts convert the two bays into parking for four.

If you’re looking for luxury in Highland Park, this might just be the place you could call home.
