Situated within guard-gated Glen Lakes, this striking 1983 contemporary offers dramatic architecture, exceptional natural light and a remarkably private setting in the heart of Dallas. Soaring ceilings, expansive windows and gracious proportions create interiors that feel both impressive and inviting, while mature trees and a secluded courtyard bring a wonderful sense of tranquility. At the heart of the home is the spectacular two-story living room, where walls of windows frame the surrounding trees and courtyard and fill the space with natural light. A dramatic curved staircase and open upper gallery add architectural interest and a sense of volume. The handsome wood-paneled study is a standout, with extensive built-ins, detailed millwork and a marble fireplace, while the elegant dining room flows naturally into the main living spaces for effortless entertaining. The well-appointed kitchen features Sub-Zero refrigerator, abundant cabinetry, a generous island and charming breakfast area with French doors opening to the courtyard. The thoughtfully designed floor plan includes an exceptional downstairs primary suite with dual baths and dual walk-in closets, creating a wonderfully private retreat. Three additional bedrooms upstairs offer ample space and flexibility. Outside, a secluded stone courtyard beneath a canopy of mature trees creates an intimate outdoor retreat rarely found in such a central location. Residents of Glen Lakes enjoy 24-hour security, lakes, walking trails, community pool, tennis courts, private park, playground and greenbelts. Just minutes from NorthPark, Preston Center and many of Dallas' best shopping, dining and cultural destinations, this distinctive residence offers a rare combination of architectural character, privacy, community amenities and exceptional convenience.
