DALLAS—A private "castle" with a 2-story luxury walk-in closet, rec room, and movie theater is up for sale for $7.8 million. Listed by Briggs Freeman Sotheby's International Realty, the iconic 13,000-square-foot property was built in 2010 as the fulfillment of a dream of a private castle. The home has undergone a recent renovation, transforming it from grand and stately to comfortable and chic.
The home features European architecture, spectacular wood trusses, and detailed ceilings—and is surrounded by intricate columns, mantels, and millwork. The luxury spaces include large living and entertaining spaces, a paneled library, paneled office, elevator, barrel-vault wine room, tiered movie theater, game room with full bar, chef's kitchen with two islands, and a glass-walled breakfast room that looks onto the outdoor oasis. There are 10 manor-style fireplaces in the home, each unique.
Each of the home's seven bedrooms has a sitting area and a private bath, plus additional living spaces. There are 12 baths in total. The main suite is entirely new and features indoor and outdoor sitting areas, a bedroom fireplace, spa bath (complete with freestanding tub, separate shower, fireplace, dual vanities, makeup counter, and coffee bar), and a two-story closet with glass-front cabinetry and rolling ladders.
The home's outdoor living area features a freeform pool, swim-through grotto, swim-up bar, waterfall, hot tub, fireplaces and multiple living areas, both alfresco and covered. The separate guest house has a living space, two ensuite bedrooms and a fitness room. The home also offers a tennis court, five-car garage and landscaped grounds.
