Large Home Near Merriman Park School
Don’t miss this rare find, as upgraded homes of this size with 5 bedrooms don’t become available very often. Close to the award-winning Merriman Park Elementary, the 5-bedroom, 3½-bath home with a 2-car garage, pool and spa, is located at 7334 Craigshire Avenue in Dallas. This Colonial-style brick home is offered for $575,000 by April Keeton Cope, an independent sales associate affiliated with the Lakewood/NE Dallas office of Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage.
“This home has been extensively updated, offers a casual elegance and is family- and pet-friendly,” said Cope. “The clean floor plan offers generous spaces, and large windows bring in abundant natural light while showcasing views of the sparkling pool and mature trees.”
The 4,222-square-foot home is nestled within a canopy of towering trees on a nearly quarter-acre corner lot. The large backyard is surrounded by a wooden fence and lush trees, and features a walk-in diving pool, with space for enjoying the outdoors with friends and family. The garage has an enormous storage room, plus a full bath and door to the pool.
The open floor plan is great for entertaining, and features exceptional architectural details, including wood-grained tile floors throughout the lower level, 3 fireplaces, exposed wooden beams and built-in storage. The second-floor is accessed by a wooden staircase. A first-floor study would make an ideal library or home office. The home also has high ceilings, large bay windows, decorative lighting and paneling, crown molding, skylights and a wet bar.
The chef’s gourmet kitchen is highlighted by wood-grained tile flooring, stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, an island with second sink, breakfast bar, double ovens, and gas range with an arched brick accent wall. The adjacent breakfast room has convenient double doors to the backyard for easy access to the pool and outdoor entertaining space. The spacious living and dining rooms are perfect for hosting parties and family gatherings, with large windows that showcase the views. The family room is open to the kitchen, with a dramatic beamed ceiling and pass-through window from the wet bar/butler’s pantry. An inviting brick fireplace and bay windows with seating welcome family and friends to linger. A guest bedroom is also situated on the first floor.
The upper-level master suite has a romantic fireplace, walk-in closets and luxurious bath offering a garden tub, dual vanities and separate shower. Three guest rooms are situated in a split floor plan for privacy.
