This magnificent property located at 50 Picadilly Park boasts calm living with a gracious atmosphere. Situated on just over 4 acres, this traditional estate has the simple elegance only found in Stonebriar Creek estates.

A private lake, creek, and green pastures are all located within the estate grounds; hence, the pristine traditional architecture of the home flows very well with the outer green countryside. A simple stoned gate gives way to a veering driveway which leads to the main entrance of the home. Clean-cut shrubs, landscaping, and a fountain are located just in front of the porte cochere creating a homely arrival. The driveway then leads to a 4 car garage. The backyard is where the fun happens. A walkway from the main home leads to a tree and rock lined sparkling pool with rock waterfalls. A balcony, which also holds a gazebo, overlooks the surrounding grounds which includes lakes and countryside. On the first level near the porte cochere, another perch overlooks the estate’s lake and front grounds. Oh yes, and can’t forget about the sand volleyball court in the back!

The 10,540 sq. foot main home was built in 1991 and has a total 6 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms. Each room is crafted and trimmed with wood trimmings creating a tranquil and ranch feel to the interior. A wood and red carpet staircase leads to the second story. An open dining room with marble pillars is situated just across from the main foyer. Other interior amenities include a large open living room, dining room with adjoining kitchen, an office with large windows and wood trimmings, game room, state of the art media theatre room with soda machine and bar, master bed and bath with 4 bedrooms located upstairs.

As a real estate enthusiast, I can honestly say I love everything about this home. I hope you do too!

Again, the address of this home is 50 Picadilly Park in Frisco, Texas. The listing price is $3,250,000. Your paradise awaits!

Another amazing listing in the Colleyville/Southlake area. This gated estate located at 5102 Montclair Drive in Colleyville, Texas is not only big, but it’s pricey as well. The French palatial home sits on a small country road surrounded by smaller homes (uncommon for the Colleyville type).

Undoubtedly, the home itself enjoys amenities only fit for the affluent. The price comes in at a whopping $8,950,000 which is a strong range compared to the Tarrant Appraisal District’s value. TAD lists the home at an appraised value of $3,517,200 and a size of 14,530 sq. feet; however, the home is listed for sale at the price listed above AND the listing has the approx. size at 19,256 sq. feet.

Regardless of price issues that will be dealt with later on, let’s get to the home itself.

The exterior of the home includes amenities such as a 6 car garage, tennis court, tennis house, large patio with pool, and a large circle drive.

The interior of the home includes luxurious accommodations on each of the 3 levels. The home includes a total of 6 bedrooms, 9 bathrooms/4 half, a dining room, game room, formal living room, and more.

The French beauty has one of the nicest verandas I have ever seen. One large, long veranda runs along the back side of the estate and surrounds the pool area/patio. I’d say one of the coolest amenities this home has is a tennis house. I have never heard of a tennis house! Sure most multi million dollar estates have pool houses, but a tennis house? Wow, cool!
