About This Home

$10,000 deposit, Available Mar 1

This beautifully reimagined and expanded one-and-a-half story home was taken to the studs and renovated in 2017. In 2025, the property was further enhanced with a brand-new roof and refinished hardwood floors. The main living space is anchored by a chef-inspired kitchen outfitted with quartz countertops, premium appliances, dual dishwashers, and an oversized island that opens to both a casual breakfast area and a generous living room. A gas fireplace, custom built-ins and a wooden beam add warmth and character. Adjacent to the main living area is a formal dining room with a sitting area and doors that slide open to a courtyard for seamless indoor-outdoor connection, perfect for entertaining. The floor plan offers multiple living areas on the main level as well as a game room and media room upstairs. The primary suite features spacious dimensions with a private bath that includes separate vanities, a soaking tub and separate oversized shower along with a spacious walk in closet. A dedicated office and three additional guest suites round out the first floor with two additional bedrooms and a shared bath upstairs. A private backyard features a separate courtyard with pergola and a built-in grill and entertaining area. Situated in desirable Melshire Estates which is the epicenter for many of Dallas’ most coveted private schools as well as all the shopping and dining that the area has to offer. Close access to major travel arteries for an easy commute anywhere in the Metroplex. So much value in all of the square footage that this home has to offer. Owner prefers 1 year lease at $10,000 a month but will consider a shorter term lease of no less than 6 months at an increased rate of $12,500 a month. Pets considered on a case by case basis depending on breed and size.
