Nestled within a 7.7-acre gated estate, Chateau Lumier in McKinney has hit the market at just under $10 million.
The picturesque abode is located at 1201 Gray Branch Rd in a city boasting some of the region’s hottest ZIP codes for home price appreciation, according to the Dallas Business Journal.
Judging by current demand, a potential buyer should expect to pay 98% of the $9,995,000 asking price, with listings staying an average of 13 days on the market.
Cindy O’Gorman of Dallas-based Ebby Halliday Realtors is the home’s listing agent, and if an in-person tour with her cannot be arranged, there is a virtual option.
The wooded estate promises to be the epitome of exclusivity for those yearning for a secluded luxury sanctuary. For an additional $2.1 million, an adjoining lot of over 8 acres is available for purchase. The property includes a pond and a country bridge.
Built in 2009, the home features meticulous architectural nuances, such as gold leaf touches, French doors, and a marble staircase with iron rails conjoining the two stories.
The mansion sprawls over 14,665 square feet, offering eight bedrooms and three baths.
A grand foyer stands just behind the double-iron doors. Beyond lies a formal dining space, bedecked with gold inlay wall coverings and handmade Bordeaux flooring.
The great room has soaring ceilings with wood arched beams and doors opening to an outdoor patio.
Not far off, a grand kitchen awaits, boasting JP Weaver appliqués and an assortment of high-end appliances. Architectural flourishes abound with maple cabinets, hand-painted backsplash tiles, and a coffered ceiling.
The unique china and silver room is right next door, accentuated by Carrera marble countertops and herringbone wood flooring.
The property also contains a wet bar set in Italian Breche De Vendome marble, a wine room with a 1,000-bottle capacity, and an expansive media room with a 123-inch digital projection system.
Yet the estate also offers privacy with a touch of lavishness, such as a master suite complete with a marble fireplace, dual walk-in closets, and a private study.
Upscale offerings such as this currently abound in North Texas.
Another multimillion-dollar listing in Rockwall County will go on auction later this week, as previously covered by The Dallas Express. While originally listed at $5 million, the bidding for the 14-acre estate will open at $1.5 million. The home is equipped with its own personal Brunswick bowling alley and offers an array of luxurious finishes from Westchester Custom Homes.
