Do you like to home ogle? Do you like driving by houses and thinking to yourself, “I’ve been in there before; the indoor pool was quite appealing.” Do you actually need to find a new home? Each week, we scout out three open houses in three different neighborhoods that look well worth the trip.
6620 Golf Drive | Sunday, 2-4pm
The Price: $5,195,000
The Neighborhood: University Park
Why It Looks Cool: There’s a very manly wood-paneled office/library with a very lovely blue butterfly print, which is surely just as impressive and intriguing in person. The prime Park Cities dwelling also offers two wine closets and a roomy master suite.
6441 Lavendale Avenue | Sunday, 2-4pm
The Price: $2,840,000
The Neighborhood: Just North of Preston Hollow
Why It Looks Cool: The wow factors start with a pivoting front door by Solara, and continue with a floating staircase, a see-through fireplace, sixteen feet of glass accordion doors, a climate controlled wine room, and a cigar porch. Then the wows keep coming with an enormous, custom cabinet-filled closet, a “luxury laundry room,” and three bedrooms (an addition to the master retreat and first floor bedroom) equipped with their own private baths, a sleeping loft, and an outdoor balcony. There are more wows to speak of, but you should really just go see for yourself.
3510 Turtle Creek Blvd #5F | Sunday, 2-4pm
The Price: $1,199,000
The Neighborhood: Oak Lawn
Why It Looks Cool: Everything looks better when placed in one of The Claridge’s handsome units, but #5F, with its modern updates and panaromic views, masterfully blends a cool contemporary aesthetic with the building’s classic ’80s charm.
