This 2,000-square-foot house is equal parts country retreat and urban residence. It’s an AIA award winner designed by Max Levy in 1999 with walls of glass, interactive outdoor living spaces, and environmentally conscious construction in a shared-ownership prairie development. There are three bedrooms; three bathrooms; and a long, screened-in porch. The 5 acres (all irrigated by reclaimed water) also include a barn, fencing, and breathtaking views. Get there in less than an hour from either Dallas or Fort Worth. Jarrad Barnes for David Griffin & Company Realtors. 214-797-1900.
