Glen Abbey Modern Home
40 Braewood Place, Dallas, Texas
Contemporary Home in Glen Abbey Neighborhood
Zillow Estimate: $5,326,694 Value
DCAD Value: $4,751,960
Architect Graham Greene of Oglesby•Greene Architects, recipient of the Dallas Chapter AIA 2010 Firm of the Year Award, designed this award-winning home. This home at 40 Braewood Place also received the 2010 AIA Interior Architecture Design Award.
Here is a home that looks traditional as it almost disappears from the street, but then as you walk next to a gurgling stream, down along the stone entrance path, under the canopy of a trellis and approach the front door, the blended nature of this magnificent modern home and dramatic site is revealed.
Still outside the front door, you can look through a glass-walled corridor into a garden, sweeping lawn and mature trees and see the gurgling stream reappear from under the entrance corridor, past a Koi pond, and flowing down a natural rock formation in a waterfall on its way to White Rock Creek below the bluff.

Modernity Meets Midcentury
The home’s travertine floors in the living room, dining room and hall are laid in 24 inch squares. Doors and windows have been raised to ceiling height. The Pozzi doors have kick locks and the windows open from the bottom to enhance natural ventilation. A sleek, wide fireplace and recessed art lighting create a sensuous atmosphere. The walls of windows provide dramatic views of the garden, courtyards and pool from different angles and perspectives.
Bent Tree Modern Home
5629 Bent Tree Drive, Dallas, Texas
Architect Frank Welch Designed on 1.08 Acres – Sold by Douglas Newby
Frank Welch, FAIA, designed this modern home for the prominent family who developed Bent Tree. It is no wonder they chose this lot for their own modern estate home. Preston Trails golf course and a greenbelt wrap around this home, providing several acre views of green with a backdrop of forest in the distance.
An exterior of stacked white cubes creates a graceful composition of geometric shapes and an interior of voluminous spaces and an exterior of over 1,000 feet of wrap around verandahs, balconies, courtyards and elevated decks.
