Candy Sale of the Week: Architecturally Signifiant Stunner on Shorecrest — I Am SO In LOVE! — Dallas Real Estate News

Oh. My. God. This stunning Bluffview architectural gem at 4214 Shorecrest probably won’t last through the weekend. In fact, I predict it will be gone by Friday. The property actually rests upon a Bluffview bluff on .97 acres. So unlike almost any other neighborhood in Dallas, with the exception of Kessler, you get a view. Built in 1939, Victor Sidy, Dean of the Frank Lloyd Wright School of Architecture, planned and oversaw the remodel. The size is perfect — not too large, not too small, and the home does not swallow the whole dang lot like so many of these behemoths. I think this would make a perfect empty nester home, and I know for a fact that Bluffview is where many empty nesters are heading. You get 3407 square feet, three bedrooms, study, three full baths and a stunning pool. Floors are concrete, marble and wood. The owners are well know Dallas journalist and attorney Courtney Dreslin Sinelli and her darling husband, Jeff Sinelli, founder, CEO and CVO (that’s Chief Vibe Officer) of Which Wich. So in a way, this is a home that “sand-wishes” built. Courtney tells me her home boasts the best patio in Dallas and treetop views from every single window. I say buy it with the furnishings and work some big fat gift certificates to Which Wich. The home is gorgeous and only asking $1, 849,000 with Sandy Petruska at Briggs Freeman…

Monday Morning Millionaire: Life on Beverly Drive is Beautiful with Designer James McInroe

Oh I have a treat for you this beautiful Monday morning. It’s called 4641 Beverly Drive and this home is smoother than your morning latte. You know who could live here? Tory Burch. Stop whatever you are doing and look at these interiors. I’m supposed to keep this package around a million, I confess the home is listed at $1,225,000. But when you see it, I swear you will just go sell a child for the extra $225,000.

Which reminds me: I talked to an old friend yesterday who told me that if she had it to do all over again, she would NOT have had children. Shocking.

Why Are These Dallas Homes Selling? What’s the Secret Sauce? Dallas Real Estate News

So I was having lunch with two Realtors last week and I said, tell me the truth, the market really sucks, right? Here’s what they said: yes, it’s slow and not at all like it was in the boom.

Todd Fiscus and Robert Dailey’s San Miguel Splendor Hits the Market: $995,000

We can only imagine how Todd is putting his feet up in this home after pulling off yet another Schlegel family wedding. Bring on the Hush Puppy slippers! No sooner than he gets comfortable, David Griffin is calling and bringing someone over for a showing. David just listed this Kessler Park treasure along with Jeff Mitchell. I also heard the home was leased out for Super Bowl week to a major celeb. Definite San Miguel de Allende feel in the hills of East Kessler, this home has been photographed and featured in so many shelter pubs you have to ask for an autograph!
