Contemporary/Modern

New architect designed home a stone’s throw from Knox Street dining and the Katy Trail. Here is a neighborhood where award winning work by architects such of Lionel Morrison, Gary Cunningham, Cliff Welch and Max Levy abounds. Architecture driven design is one of the area’s calling cards. 3516 Overbrook is the newest ex-ample. Located on a prime, north facing corner lot, the owner engaged Far+Dang to design their dream home, as well as a second home to be sold. Just under 3200 square feet, this home is a calm retreat for busy lives. On 3 levels, serviced by an elevator, there are tall ceilings, white oak floors, and a full-floor piano nobile for living and entertaining. The facade is distinguished by low maintenance metal and Brazilian Cumaru hardwood. The 2nd floor’s cantilevered balcony is finished with vertical steel guardrails. The landscape offers a 25-foot wide side yard, brush hammered driveway and red oaks. On the first level is a 2-car garage with battery charger. One wall of the gallery-like entrance is paneled, concealing the elevator. There is a generous first floor bedroom with ensuite bath. The second level, with 11 foot ceilings, is all living. The kitchen features stainless steel Bosch appliances. A large island provides space for casual dining and food prep. There is a walk-in pantry. The living room is anchored by a fireplace and the dining area opens through floor-to-ceiling glass doors to a large covered balcony. These north facing, light filled rooms provide inspiring living space. The 3’rd level houses the primary bedroom as well as the home’s 3’rd bedroom, (or office) each with ensuite baths. The primary suite has tree top views and a spa bath with stone finishes, dual vanities, soaking tub, and separate shower. Adjacent to the suite is a utility room. Many windows in the home are prewired for electronic shades. If you desire the ultimate Dallas offers for sophisticated lock and leave lifestyle, this custom built home is a must see.
