‘Downton Abbey’-like estate for sale proves that everything really is bigger in Texas
Looking for a dramatic home that infuses English elegance with some Lone Star flair? Yes, it does exist and is listed for $6.75 million.
The five-bedroom, seven-bathroom estate is in the posh suburban neighborhood of Colleyville, Texas, a ritzy area within the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex, and has a “Downton Abbey” meets “Dallas” sort of vibe, a news release says.
“Inspired by the classic homes of the Hudson River Valley, 6300 Pool Road transports you to Hyde Park, NY via this Larry Boerder Architectural masterpiece,” the listing on Compass says. “This sophisticated, elegant estate home combines a pleasing balance of symmetry and proportions, perfected through engineering, quality materials and attention to detail.”
The prestigious estate is stacked with unique features both in and around its 10,421-square-footage, including:
Views
Grand stair hall
Library bar
Stone fireplaces
Pond
Chef’s kitchen
Floor-to-ceiling windows
Media room
Elevator shaft
Utility room
Yoga studio
Perhaps one of the most interesting features is the bell board to ring each bedroom. Look familiar?
“Homeowners or staff can ring to each of the bedrooms via the custom designed bell board fitted with sweet sounding English bells made by the same craftsman who created the famous bell board for the PBS show, Downtown Abbey,” the release says.
There’s even a working bee apiary on the property “that qualifies for agricultural exemption,” the release notes.
The listing is held by Lauren Moore.
