Not Ready for Summer to End? This Lake Highlands Home Makes Resort Season Year-Round

With the solstice behind us and back-to-school season approaching, summer vacation is officially on its way out. While we’re likely in store for another month of three-digit heat, the magic of the season is fading faster than cheap patio furniture. Sadly, all the PTO, R&R, and SPF will soon be replaced by the real world. However, if you’re house hunting in Lake Highlands, your season of escape doesn’t have to come with an expiration date.

For this week’s Inwood Home of the Week sponsored by Inwood National Bank, we found a Lake Highlands residence that delivers the resort life year-round.

This four-bedroom, two-and-one-half-bathroom, 2,520-square-foot contemporary home is arranged around its outdoor escape.

“Perfectly positioned on an oversized corner lot in the heart of Lake Highlands, it offers a rare combination of striking architecture and a backyard that’s nearly impossible to find,” said listing agent Jenny Capritta with RE/MAX DFW Associates.

The home’s angular exterior, mature landscaping, and large windows hint at the relationship between the indoor spaces and backyard. Inside, oak hardwood floors run through the open main level.

A cedar-planked ceiling and gas-log fireplace anchor the living room, where a wall of windows frames the pool and lawn.

The kitchen features a Sub-Zero refrigerator, Viking double ovens, and a five-burner gas cooktop, along with space for casual dining.

The main-level primary suite serves as a private resort-style escape with its own fireplace and incredible outdoor views. It also echoes the ambiance of the living room with another cedar ceiling.

Then, the ensuite bathroom is complete with dual vanities, a walk-in shower, and exceptional updated style.  

From the spacious home office that accommodates dual workstations to three additional bedrooms, this 2,520-square-foot floor plan provides a plethora of living space that perfect for any resident type.

Of course, the real highlight is what awaits on the outside. With a sparkling saltwater pool, a serene waterfall, and a gorgeous gazebo, this resort-style backyard beckons you with ease.

“Unlike many homes where the pool consumes the entire yard, this outdoor retreat creates an outdoor lifestyle that’s as functional as it is beautiful,” said Capritta. “Here, an expansive lawn, covered patio, and gazebo with multiple media hookups add to the endless potential of this home.”

Also, this exceptional location offers convenient access to the White Rock Lake trail system, parks, shopping, dining, and major commuter routes. 

Jenny Capritta with RE/MAX DFW Associates lists 9105 Kingsley Creek Circle for $1.25 million.
