Greico Homes Don’t Come Up Often. Two Just Did in Midway Hollow

Some houses check boxes. Tom Greico’s set the bar.

This week, two of the late Dallas builder’s properties hit the market. And while they offer a rare opportunity for buyers, they also put something else on full display: just how singular Tom’s work still feels. For anyone who knows his work, that’s worth paying attention to.

Full disclosure—this story hits close to home. I shared life with Tom for more than a decade—and live in a Greico—so I had a front-row seat to how he thought, designed, and worked with the clients who trusted him to build for them.

What he created wasn’t just architecture. It was instinct.

It was joy. And a very real understanding that a house should reflect the people inside it — not the other way around.

Tom never set out to build big houses. Homeowner Jenny Anchondo, who is selling the 4,981-square-foot showpiece at 9360 Lakemont Drive, recalls him saying, “The more money people spend, the more particular they tend to get about…well, everything.”

And yet Lakemont evolved, ultimately becoming his most expansive work.

Listed for $2.89 million, the five-bedroom home is a masterclass in everything Tom did best: clean lines with warmth, spaces that unfold naturally, and Midcentury Modern details that only get better the longer you live with them.

The kitchen opens seamlessly into soaring living spaces, where walls of glass disappear, and the backyard carries the same level of thought as the interiors.

Jenny — who hosts Inside DFW on the CW — describes the experience as collaborative, intuitive, and fully engaged from start to finish.

“When is your builder the first person to know you’re having a baby?” she laughed. “Suddenly our plans were changing midstream.”

That was Tom — designing around real life, as it was happening.

He paid attention in ways most homebuilders don’t — like the small nook inside her closet. Jenny calls it her “serenity space.” Not something you’d notice right away. Just exactly what she needed.

Unknowingly, that home became his last.

According to Douglas Newby, who reports on architecturally significant properties, Lakemont is “a rare opportunity to own a significant piece of Dallas architectural history.”

Another of his properties, the 3,678-square-foot four-bedroom at 4135 Valley Ridge, tells a different story. The lot itself, once owned by Tom, includes two of his builds, creating what feels like a Greico corner — two homes, one point of view.

While the residence has been fully renovated, the vision is unmistakable: an open plan defined by proportion and flow, floor-to-ceiling glass that brings in natural light, and the kind of seamless indoor-outdoor connection he handled so effortlessly.

Sliding pocket doors open completely to the private courtyard, an extension of the living space designed as much for daily life as it is for entertaining.

If Lakemont shows how far he could take an idea, Valley Ridge is a reminder of how consistently he hit the mark.

CandysDirt.com publisher Candy Evans wrote that Tom was a “pioneer in modern architecture,” who “brought light to every room he entered.” It wasn’t just about personality — it was embedded in his work.

Clients didn’t just respect Tom — they genuinely enjoyed working with him.

“We were so grateful for the partnership,” says Jenny. “Tom was talented, fun, creative — and doing exactly what he loved.”

In a market that often leans cookie-cutter, Greico homes are entirely their own.

When Tom passed unexpectedly in 2019, his work was hitting an extraordinary stride. But walk through any of his homes and it’s clear: He didn’t miss his moment. He built it.

Emily Hill of Compass RE Texas has listed 9360 Lakemont Drive for $2.899 million.

Ashley Moss of Moss Residential has listed 4135 Valley Ridge for $1.599 million.
