You hear an address like 4531 Park Lane, and you might assume it’s situated along a bustling stretch of four-lane roadway. But this Park Lane is not that Park Lane. No, this graceful, nearly one-acre estate is located on a stretch of residential road canopied by trees that’s an anachronistic look at Old Preston Hollow.

Here on this narrow, barely two-lane stretch of Park Lane — past the modern 1950s architecture of NorthPark Center, past Preston Road where the curbs and sidewalks recede into front lawns, and near the deep, estate-sized home setbacks of Inwood — you’ll find this eight-bedroom, six-bath home with 7,408 square feet. This home, listed for sale by Kevin Curran of Redfin, is nestled in the charming neighborhood of Maywood Estates.

“We’ve loved the neighborhood in Old Preston Hollow,” says seller Robin Looper who with her husband are relocating for business. “It’s like living in the country but right in the heart of the city with all of the city convenience.”

The sprawling estate, nestled on .97 idyllic acres, has towering seventy-year-old trees, mature landscaping, and a gorgeous rock and natural stone fountain in the front yard. It feels like a home you’d find far out of the city, but this Hill Country-esque domicile is walking distance to Ursuline Academy, a couple of miles from Episcopal School of Dallas and Christ the King, and minutes from everything via Northwest Highway and Dallas North Tollway.

The previous owners took the home down to the studs to remodel and expand the square footage. They added an eight-car temperature-controlled tandem garage with four garage doors. If you’ve got a large family, a multigenerational household, or a cherished collection of cars, this is your house.

With that major 200 remodel, it’s clear they paid attention to the home’s flow, making sure each room made sense in relation to the room adjacent to it. That flowing floor plan made entertaining easy for the Loopers and their four children.

“We hosted a lot of school parties and get-togethers over the years,” Looper says. “The house is great for entertaining because the rooms flow together and create big open spaces for entertaining. The backyard is wonderful too with multiple settings for conversations and fun together.”

The primary kitchen features granite counters, high-end stainless steel appliances, a whisper-quiet Bosch dishwasher, and a built-in banquette.

There are five living spaces in total, including one upstairs with the secondary bedrooms. “That was perfect when the kids were teenagers because we didn’t hear them at night from our room,” Looper says.

Upstairs there are four bedrooms with two Jack-and-Jill baths and four bedrooms downstairs, including the primary. The downstairs bedrooms can also double as a gym, office space, or bonus room. The tranquil primary suite has unique separate his-and-hers baths each with attached custom walk-in closets, and a fireplace. The primary suite also features an attached living area with an indoor dry sauna, a kitchenette with a wine cooler, a second Bosch dishwasher, a fireplace, and direct access to the pool area.

Fun little bonus: the home features a hidden safe behind the bookshelf in the family room.

Enjoy the gorgeous, lush private backyard from the expansive covered outdoor living area, shaded open patio areas, and custom outdoor kitchen. It overlooks the sparkling blue 10-foot-deep diving pool with a waterfall feature.
