T. Boone Pickens may be a legendary Texas oil and gas executive, and a huge force behind wind energy, but there are no windmills on his Preston Hollow estate in Dallas, Texas. There are gardens, sculpted and manicured French gardens that will make you think you are in Versailles so much that “mais oui” will roll right off your tongue! He is now selling his Dallas estate in the heart of Preston Hollow for $7 million. And it is not listed in MLS. The home was built in 1996, but then when T. Boone and his wife, Madeleine bought it in July, 2005 for about five million, it was redone to the max. And I do mean the max. From a four bedroom home with a master on the first floor, it was taken to a three bedroom home with an expanded second floor master. In fact, the new master bathroom is so large it features a writing desk — what a splendid idea! The new master closet is larger than most starter homes.

We love Tom and Laura Leppert’s home over there on Alva Court in the honeypot of Preston Hollow, listed with Mary Poss, but now comes a slightly sexier competitor to the field. Mmmmmnn. Dave Perry-Miller has just listed 9434 Alva Court, asking a cool $7 million. And honestly, this has to be the sexiest, most romantic…

I told you a week or so ago that Cindy and Howard Rachofsky are selling their family home on Glendora in Preston Hollow to move back into their complete “art home” at 8605 Preston Road that is well known as an art party hot spot. The Howard Meier designed home on one healthy acre just…
