Home Details
Welcome to this truly exceptional Mediterranean-inspired estate, gracefully situated on a generous .38-acre corner lot at the northeast corner of Amherst and Turtle Creek. A timeless legacy home in University Park, it offers a rare and cherished sense of privacy, a true gem in the heart of the Park Cities. Originally crafted by Gage Homes in 1995 as a custom home for the first owners, and thoughtfully updated with Craft-Barnett by its current owners, every inch of this residence radiates warmth and timeless elegance. The main level features an expansive primary suite that opens directly to the serene pool and tropical surrounding, providing a tranquil retreat. A dedicated office space offers functionality, while the kitchen flows seamlessly into a casual living area with vaulted ceilings and a charming wood-burning fireplace. The formal living room, also with a wood-burning fireplace, is nothing short of breathtaking, boasting soaring wood beams that add an air of grandeur. Open to the dining room with paneled ceiling, this space is designed for intimate gatherings and festive entertaining. A spacious walk-in pantry and a wet bar with silver storage and additional storage complete the main floor, offering both convenience and luxury. Upstairs, five bedrooms and 4 baths, plus a cozy lounge area, provide the perfect space for relaxation or movie nights. An attached two-car garage with a sizable storage closet, together with an oversized third parking space off the alley, ensures plenty of room for vehicles and storage. Meticulously maintained, this home offers peace of mind with all five HVAC units replaced within the past several years. And the location? Simply unbeatable. Just steps from University Park Elementary, Curtis Park, and the community pool, with the vibrant shops and restaurants of Snider Plaza within walking distance — the very best of University Park living. Come experience the warmth, character, and timeless elegance of this one-of-a-kind residence.
