$1,195,000
Custom-built in 1985 for Donald & Linda Dismore, owners of Levine’s Department Stores, this nearly 7,000 SQ FT residence sits on three adjoining parcels totaling more than 6 acres—believed to be the largest estate in Frost Farms. A sweeping circular drive creates a grand arrival to this impressive property, opening to soaring ceilings, rich wood floors & a striking main staircase showcasing the scale & character of the home. Multiple living, dining AND entertaining spaces provide incredible flexibility, including a dramatic great room with a floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace & wall of windows, game room & bar, dedicated study, solarium & multiple bonus spaces. Chef’s kitchen features a wine fridge, dual sinks, double ovens, Wolf gas range, warming drawer, extensive storage & multi-purpose scullery equipped with another sink & utility shower. Oversized first-floor primary feels like its own private wing with a sitting area, fireplace, massive ensuite bath & dual dressing-room-style custom closets. A second primary suite upstairs is ideal for multigenerational living or extended-stay guests. Even the laundry setup reflects the scale of the home, with 3 separate sets of hookups—1 upstairs & 2 downstairs (in the scullery & primary suite’s secondary closet). More than $300K has been invested in improvements across the property, including 3 HVAC units replaced in 2023, newer bedroom windows + flooring, fully renovated baths, new interior doors + updated French doors, 2 NEW water heaters & extensive exterior improvements. Outside, the estate continues with a resurfaced heated saltwater pool + spa with updated tile, large patio space, mature trees, pasture, pond, new perimeter fence & dedicated dog kennel with a new roof. 4-car garage with workshop space, RV & boat parking, porte-cochere & walk-in cedar safe room add even more function. Convenient to Cedar Hill State Park, Joe Pool Lake, nearby shopping, dining, US-67 & I-20, with Downtown Dallas within easy reach.
