This Glass-Filled Little Forest Hills Home Makes a Bold Statement

East Dallas’ Little Forest Hills isn’t a neighborhood known for homes that blend into the background. Big or small, modern or let’s say “eclectic,” you’ll find all styles of homes in this highly sought-after neighborhood near White Rock Lake. Even so, this contemporary custom home manages to stand out even in this motley collection of homes.

From the corner lot, this four-bedroom, five-bathroom, 4,300-square-foot home presents a stunning contemporary picture. Designed by CC & Co and built by C&W Custom Homes, the home is a standout from every angle with classic stucco, soaring sheets of glass, and striking lighting

Cedar plank cathedral ceilings, an underlit staircase, and designer fixtures reinforce the home’s contemporary design. Inside to the right, a clever hallway wet bar with under-counter beverage centers maximizes a transitional walkway between the dining room and the living room. On the left, a dramatic office with beamed ceilings and a floor-to-ceiling window that literally blurs the line between indoors and outdoors.

In the living room, backlit built-ins flank the fireplace that’s surrounded by marble, museum-finished walls, and muted hardwoods, which bring out all the artistic accents throughout the dynamic layout.

The chef’s kitchen is at the heart of this home. Here, an elegant double-tier marble island and top-of-the-line Monogram appliances take center stage, while “back of house” features include a wet pantry with refrigerator, dishwasher, and warming drawer, and a laundry room with laundry sink and built-ins. A massive wall of dark gray matte cabinetry features glass-front, LED-lit display cabinets and ample storage to keep clutter behind the scenes.

Heading upstairs, the primary suite features generous natural light, a recessed LED ceiling detail, and a modern spa-style bath with an oversized shower and a standalone soaking tub.

Finally, the backyard seamlessly extends this home’s livability. With a sizable covered patio and full outdoor kitchen, it’s another impressive space perfectly suited for entertaining.

If you’re looking for a home that speaks volumes on modern style, this is one listing you have to explore.
