Renovated Estate Sittin’ Pretty in Preston Hollow’s Pickens Place

If you’re going to have a walkup like the home at 5837 Lakehurst Avenue, you better make sure it is as impressive on the inside as it is on the outside. I mean, you can’t give the people a perfectly manicured mansion with a gated driveway and courtyard and then proceed to show them a run-of-the-mill custom home in need of serious renovation. And luckily, the current owner’s delivered by packing a dual exterior/interior punch with a 2019 renovation that is both thoughtful and functional. Trust us, you’re going to want to see this one in person.

This home has four bedrooms, 4.1.-bathrooms, and over 5,483 square feet. There is a downstairs master and three additional bedrooms all with en suite bathrooms upstairs. And with that much space to work with, one might wonder if it is only four bedrooms, what makes up the rest of the home? It turns out that the real answer to that question is what makes this home so special. What is the old saying, the difference between ‘ordinary’ and ‘extraordinary’ is that little extra?



The property features a 3,000-bottle wine cellar that brings Napa Valley right to Dallas. There is also a library off the master bedroom that makes working from home not only doable but the preferred method of getting deals done. Lots of laundry? Two laundry rooms definitely lighten the load, or at least offers options for where to leave the load. The garage can also store six cars via four bays and two car lifts.

But what makes this home truly unique is the way the electric walls can go up with the push of a button, converting your indoor kitchen and dining area into the ultimate outdoor oasis. A chef’s dream setup features a Lynx built-in stainless steel gas BBQ pit, Hasty Bake build-in charcoal grill & rotisserie, two-burner cooktop, steam table, warming drawer, ice maker, two refrigerators and MORE. All of this overlooking a fire pit, pool, and gorgeous, green grounds. In Dallas, it is truly rare to see a property work with both indoor and outdoor elements so perfectly to create such a heavenly, hybrid space to dwell.

At the end of the day, these are strange times. If you would have asked us a year ago if any luxury real estate agent would ever include “To be quarantined here would be a pleasure” on a listing’s description, we would laugh. But alas, here we are, completely nodding our head in agreement that this place is setting up its new owners with the perfect shelter-in-place situation.
