Set on an exceptional .573-acre lot in Melshire Estates, this expansive 6-bedroom, 4.1-bath home offers a thoughtfully designed floor plan with spaces for family, guests, multigenerational living, or working from home. The main level features an updated kitchen opening directly to the family room, along with formal living and dining rooms, a play room, laundry, and four bedrooms with two baths. Two of the downstairs bedrooms are privately positioned in a separate wing, that could be used as guest suite with its own bedroom, bath, and adjoining living space. Upstairs, the primary suite features a renovated bath, oversized closet, and sitting room with built-ins. An additional bedroom with updated ensuite bath and a second office with skylights and built-in bookcases complete the second level. A large bonus room, accessed by a separate staircase, provides even more flexibility as a home gym, playroom, hobby space, or generous storage. The oversized backyard is a defining feature of the property with pool, grassy yard, basketball court, patio, built-in grill, and pergola-covered entertaining area. With abundant room to swim, play, entertain, or simply relax, the property offers a rare sense of space and privacy. The current owners have extensively refreshed the home, including renovations to the kitchen, primary bath, guest bath, powder bath, and laundry room; fresh interior paint; replaced carpet; a new cooktop and Sub-Zero refrigerator; and the addition of the sitting room adjoining the primary suite. Additional features include three newer HVAC systems, Lutron lighting, smart-home technology, and two interior fireplaces. The home offers convenient access to Cooper Aerobics, Preston Forest Village, shopping, dining, and many of the area’s most sought-after schools and amenities. With its unusually large lot, extensive updates, flexible living spaces, and exceptional backyard, this is a distinctive opportunity in one of North Dallas’ most established neighborhoods.
