Now is your chance to live in a home built for Dallas royalty, if you have millions lying around. Stephen Jones, COO of the Dallas Cowboys and son of Jerry Jones, and his wife, Karen, have put their Highland Park home on the market for a whopping $11.5 million.
The 10,543-square-foot Georgian-style home was built in 1996, but it has been continuously updated by the couple throughout the years. With its floor-to-ceiling windows, unique light fixtures, and beautiful parquet wood floors, 3900 Miramar Ave. is the ideal of contemporary meets classic. Allie Beth Allman herself has the listing.
All the features of the Highland Park home of your dreams are here: six beautiful bedrooms, four living spaces, and a pool. Oh, and a pub. The office comes equipped with not only floor-to-ceiling bookcases and luscious dark mahogany wood, but also a built-in bar.
A spacious walk-in closet — the kind that inspires major wardrobe envy — is attached the master bedroom, which is upstairs with four other bedrooms. Another living room on the second floor can also double as a playroom for the kids or serve as an upstairs den.
As for outside, the home is equipped with an outdoor fireplace right next to the pool, built-in grill, loggia, and pergola.
Listed at $11.5 million, the price-per-square-foot is $1,091, the highest for the neighborhood, according to Candy's Dirt.
The Rollin R Ranch in North Texas is on the market for $21.5 million.
A North Texas ranch with ties to the White House is on the market for $21.5 million.
Dallas oil and gas executive Tony Roosevelt, the grandson of President Franklin Roosevelt, is selling his 1,300-acre Rolling R Ranch in Cooke County, which is along the Texas-Oklahoma border. Blake Hortenstine, Cash McWhorter, and Jonathan James, all of Hortenstine Ranch Co., have the listing.
Roosevelt bought the ranch in 1999. He and his wife, JoAnne Roosevelt, had used the property as a weekend retreat, The Wall Street Journal reported.
The ranch, about 75 miles north of Dallas-Fort Worth, features rolling terrain dotted with hardwood forests, native grasslands, and mature pecan groves. The property sits along more than 2.5 miles of Clear Creek.
“For Tony Roosevelt, Rolling R Ranch represented the realization of a lifelong vision. His appreciation for ranching began during his youth at his family’s original Rolling R Ranch in Colorado,” Hortenstine Ranch Co. says in a news release.
“Those experiences shaped his belief that land should be experienced, cared for and shared across generations. Rather than recreating the Colorado property, he spent decades thoughtfully assembling adjoining acreage in Cooke County and shaping a ranch uniquely suited to the North Texas landscape.”
Over time, the Roosevelts’ children and grandchildren would go horseback riding, hiking, camping, or fishing when they visited Rolling R. The property lies near the historic Chisholm and Butterfield Overland National Historic trails.
“What makes Rolling R Ranch truly special isn’t simply its size or location,” Blake Hortenstine says. “It’s the intentional way it was created. Every trail, overlook, and improvement reflects decades of thoughtful stewardship. Opportunities to acquire a property with this level of natural beauty, privacy and history are exceptionally rare.”
According to the listing firm, Tony Roosevelt delayed construction of the ranch’s hilltop lodge until he bought enough nearby property to protect unobstructed views.
Improvements at the ranch included establishing a seven-mile trail system, installing owl boxes and bluebird houses, and setting up wildlife sanctuary areas. Deer, turkey, waterfowl, native birds, wild hogs, coyotes, bobcats, and other wildlife populate the ranch.
While the outdoor amenities and wildlife are impressive, so are the buildings at the ranch.
The 3,716-square-foot main house, built in 2014, offers four bedrooms and four-and-a-half bathrooms. The open-concept great room features a stone fireplace with stone flooring that extends to the main living areas.
The kitchen includes granite countertops, custom cabinetry, a large center island, and a butler’s pantry. A wet bar is next to the main living area. Just off the kitchen is a screened-in porch overlooking the landscaped and irrigated grounds, along with a swimming pool and hot tub.
A 2,800-square-foot barndominium does double duty as the ranch’s headquarters and lodging for visitors.
The barndominium’s upper level includes four bedrooms, two bathrooms, a full kitchen, an open living area, and a screened-in balcony overlooking the surrounding wildlife sanctuary. The lower level features a climate-controlled workshop with a full bathroom. Adjacent to the workshop is a four-stall horse barn, one of four barns on the property.
“Whether envisioned as a legacy family retreat, a premier recreational ranch, or a long-term investment in one of North Texas’ most desirable ranching regions, Rolling R Ranch stands among the finest offerings to come to market in recent years and represents an opportunity that discerning buyers may not see again for decades,” Blake Hortenstine says.
