The Stonecroft by Catena Homes is a reimagined countryside retreat in the estate section of Preston Hollow, the Stonecroft pairs a German-smear brick façade with arched glass and a quiet confidence that doesn't need to announce itself. With architecture by Briggs Architecture and Design and interiors by Sees Design, the home is a study in restraint: every material, sightline, and proportion chosen with intention, not trend. Timeless architecture, honest materials, and rooms designed to be lived in for generations, not just photographed once. A two-story great room anchors the home, framed by a hand-laid marble fireplace, millwork-paneled walls rising to 23-foot ceilings, and oversized Kolbe windows and doors opening to the rear loggia. It is formal enough to entertain and warm enough to live in every day. The kitchen is built around a 78-inch L'Atelier Paris range, a full suite of riftsawn white oak cabinetry, and a book-matched marble island with generous seating. An adjoining banquette keeps the kitchen connected to the great room. The primary suite is a true retreat: a freestanding soaking tub set before a full-height marble steam shower framed in brass, dual vanities, heated floors and natural light on both sides. A dedicated wellness wing, with a home gym and built-in Salus sauna, brings a hospitality-grade recovery ritual into daily life, the kind more often found at five-star resorts than at home. A color-drenched library, finished in deep forest green from ceiling to millwork, offers a private escape with its own fireplace, custom bar, and floor-to-ceiling shelving. Outside, the covered loggia opens to a lounge-ready pool and mature landscaping, a backyard made for entertaining at any scale.

The heart of 4506 Isabella Lane lies under the sky. Enter through the main gate and a full Preston Hollow acre opens up — three structures drawn around a sweeping lawn the way chairs are pulled up to a fire. This is a compound with three front doors, and each was given a job. The Pool House does the entertaining. The Sanctuary — the main residence — is where daily life happens. The Cottage takes whoever else is staying, for a weekend or a year. Every other acre in Preston Hollow asks one building to do all three at once. This one never had to. The Pool House: a full kitchen, bar and lounge opening to covered, heated dining on two sides; below, a screening room with tiered seating and a game room with a pool table, shuffleboard, foosball and a bar. The sound system runs the length of the compound, inside and out. The 75-foot pool runs along one edge, and the heated spa is sized to swim in straight through the Dallas winter. A hundred people, and not one of them walks through your kitchen. The main residence’s 4,449 square feet were comprehensively renovated in 2022 — kitchen, baths, hardwoods, windows, appliances and mechanicals. Upstairs is entirely private: a primary suite, three additional bedrooms and a game room. Downstairs keeps its own hours. Across the green, a fire pit, an acre of open lawn and a vintage Airstream, permanently parked — a campground that switches on the moment the sun goes down. The Airstream stays with the house. The Cottage: two thousand square feet with a steam shower, wet bar and air-conditioned basement, taking four shapes — two ensuite bedrooms; a bedroom and a gym; two offices; or a guest suite on one side and an office on the other. For all its seclusion, Inwood Village, Dallas’ top private schools, Love Field and the Park Cities are minutes away.

A rare architectural offering, this extraordinary 1973 mid-century modern estate was designed by architect Mark Shekter, who later restored and expanded the residence himself. Set completely on one level across a double lot of more than one acre, the home preserves its original architectural character while bringing it forward for today. Shekter, whose award-winning firm designed thousands of residences nationwide, considered the spectacular great room among his favorite spaces he ever designed. Floor-to-ceiling windows, a dramatic marble fireplace and full-service bar define the great room, which flows to the wood-paneled study and elegant dining room. Original marble tile, refinished hardwoods and distinctive architectural details remain. An all-brick media room with projector, screen and integrated sound offers a dedicated space for entertainment. The light-filled kitchen features Wolf, Sub-Zero and Miele appliances, extensive cabinetry, two pantries and a large skylight. The private primary suite offers a serene retreat with original stone fireplace, custom molding and automatic shades, along with dual bathrooms and closets. Three additional bedroom suites include one with a charming hidden room, while the fifth bedroom suite is privately positioned in a separate wing. The remarkable grounds, reimagined by famed landscape architects Naud Burnett, Lamberts Landscape Company & Harold Leidner, offer two distinct outdoor environments. A shaded pool creates a private retreat, while a regulation north-south tennis court with lighting, putting green, sports court, play yard, pavilion and rock pond create an extraordinary setting. An oversized three-car garage, double carport and exceptional storage complete the property. Ideally located near Dallas’ premier private schools, this is a singular opportunity to own an important piece of Dallas architectural history, meticulously preserved and thoughtfully evolved for today.
