4800 Preston Road was designed in 1910 and remained a landmark for 90 years. Not only was it one of the first homes built in Highland Park, but it was magnificent from either Preston Road or Lakeside Drive.

Since the 1920s until today, Dallas residents and visitors have driven around White Rock Lake and marveled at this imposing home looking over the lake. Built by H.L. Hunt at the time, one of the richest men in the world, who symbolized Texas.
