Lakewood is known for its picturesque landscape, proximity to nature, and peaceful ambiance. One of Dallas’s most iconic communities, this area exudes the kind of aesthetic only found in the most established neighborhoods. Rooted in the early 20th century, Lakewood is home to a collection of historic homes and inspired architecture. Here conservation districts display everything from Craftsman to Prairie school, to Mediterranean-style estates. However, in its modern era, Lakewood is also stacking up some of the most exquisite luxury listings in Texas.
For this week’s Inwood Home of the Week, sponsored by Inwood National Bank, we’re thrilled to uncover a brand-new build in the heart of this East Dallas enclave.
This five-bedroom, five-and-a-half bathroom, 4,452-square-foot gem embodies the level of excellence this area inspires. Let’s have a look.
Designed by Emerson James, this contemporary masterpiece exudes sophistication from every angle. From the curb, a modern transitional profile showcases large windows, pitched eaves, and multi-medium construction. Of course, the lawn is immaculate and adds to the allure of this new construction.
Upon crossing the custom glass pivot door, it’s apparent just how much thought went into this interior. From the herringbone oak floors to the floating staircase, every aspect makes an impression.
The floor plan is efficient and inviting, allowing you to experience the open concept with ease. However, each area brings unexpected surprises.
The main living room is immersed in the beauty of the surroundings. With enormous windows on each side, the contemporary motif blends seamlessly with natural light. The floor-to-ceiling slate hearth adds an element of contrast to this bright gathering space.
The chef’s kitchen transitions over an oversized waterfall island. Here, features like double ovens, two dishwashers, quartzite countertops, and a wraparound pantry make a paradise for any home chef. Also, with a coffee bar and wine fridge, the entertaining appeal is through the roof.
Then, the primary suite is as stylish as it is serene. With an expansive neighborhood view, high ceilings, and ample space, this room makes the perfect retreat.
The ensuite bathroom is the picture of luxury. Dual vanities, floating cabinetry, a stand-alone soaking tub, and a huge walk-in shower create pristine spa experiences to punctuate every morning.
Whether you’re entertaining or simply enjoying the extras inside this home, there is so much more to explore. An upstairs game room, front office space, and formal dining area check all the boxes in terms of next-level luxury. Of course, the glass wine encasement adds even more of a wow factor to this one-of-a-kind residence.
Finally, the backyard feels refreshing and organic. Custom-milled siding and a pine fence perfectly complement the manicured lawn and majesty of its Lakewood surroundings.
If you’re looking to get in on the luxurious renaissance of this iconic Dallas neighborhood, now is your chance.
