A $27.5 million estate in Southlake has hit the market, and it might be a music producer’s dream.

Sure, the photos show it. It’s got all the things you’d expect to find in a sprawling North Texas mansion and then some. There are eight bedrooms, eight full bathrooms and three partial baths.

The home at 1469 Sunshine Lane sits on a more than 3.5-acre lot near Grapevine Lake. The three-level home was custom built in 2016.

But the biggest draw to the 31,234-square-foot mansion might be a state-of-the-art studio unlike most others.

Many a Dallas residential real estate listing will claim to “have it all,” but for my money, few rarely deliver. A recent exception to this rule, however, is 8404 Swananoah Road. The 7,600-square-foot beauty in Bluffview has fit nearly every possible modern amenity onto its .5-acre lot. Things like Lutron lighting, phantom screens, and top-of-the-line appliances in the chef’s kitchen seem standard by comparison. (Though this home has those too, naturally.)

A custom design by top Dallas architect David Stocker, the new build by Faulkner Perrin is a labyrinth (with a great flow) of luxe finishes. Tucked behind a striking privacy wall, a glass-walled entryway opens onto an expansive living and kitchen area with gleaming floors of polished concrete. Hocker’s design is as thoughtful as always (revisit his timeless Highland Park hacienda that was featured in our pages last year), but the real differentiator at this Bluffview home is its staggering list of amenities.

It’s an interesting time in the Dallas-Fort Worth housing market.

As the region topped an estimated 8 million in population, developers have erected more homes and apartments at an unrivaled pace. But various organizations say there’s still a shortage of units.

Higher prices and interest rates have led developers to adjust recently, coming up with their own solutions in an effort to deliver a cheaper home.

A jump in the supply of single-family homes has brought prices down slightly. But buyers haven’t flooded the market just yet.

Calling all Midcentury Modern house lovers! You can now add Sunset Acres to your real estate shopping map.

Sunset Acres you ask? Sounds like a retirement community in Arizona. I hadn’t heard of it either till Lisa Logan, League Real Estate agent and neighbor brought it to my attention. Sunset Acres is obviously not in Arizona, but, in fact, situated in a desirable and appreciating Westside location off Burton Hill, bordered by Westover Hills, Crestline Neighborhood, and the West Fork of the Trinity River. Think of it as an adjunct of the more familiar Burton Hill Trinity Trails.

Fixer uppers here can be had for much less than houses in other Midcentury Modern neighborhoods like Ridglea Hills. Our focus this week is an absolutely move-in ready, updated 2,167-square-foot Ranch at 5425 Santa Marie Ave. The exterior has lots of curb appeal with southwest-themed landscaping and saffron-colored brick complimented by soft sage trim. Attention extends to the custom semi-circular guttering.

Even as home prices hit new highs, experts say there are signs that the housing market is becoming better for buyers in some locations.

The median cost of an existing, single-family home in the U.S. was $426,900 in June, a new all-time high, according to the National Association of Realtors. About 3.89 million homes were sold in June, a 5.4% decrease from May, NAR found.

While mortgage rates have declined from their May peak, borrowing costs remain expensive for buyers. The average 30-year fixed rate mortgage in the U.S. nudged up to 6.78% from 6.77% on Thursday, according to Freddie Mac data via the Federal Reserve.
