    Luxe listing

    Magnificent $39 million Park Cities mansion is the priciest home for sale in Texas

    Magnificent $39 million Park Cities mansion is the priciest home for sale in Texas
    play icon

    A massive University Park estate that went on the market in 2016 at $39 million is for sale again — at the same price.

     

    Realtor.com reports that the 2.86-acre estate, at 6767 Hunters Glen Rd., is the most expensive home currently for sale in Texas. The listing agent, Alex Perry of Allie Beth Allman & Associates, declined to comment.

     

    In case you were wondering, real estate marketplace Zillow estimates the monthly mortgage payment for this grand residence would be $217,411. (We’re guessing whomever buys this property could easily afford the mortgage.)

     

    Allie Beth Allman’s listing calls the estate an “iconic property.” Built in 1946, the two-story home in the exclusive Volk Estates enclave features 12,664 square feet of interior space with six bedrooms, five full bathrooms, and three partial bathrooms.

     

    "They're redoing the inside, so it will all be brand new and will be finished in just a couple of months," the agents say on a marketing video recently posted to YouTube.

     

    The current owners are wealth manager John Tolleson — a former trustee of Southern Methodist University — and his wife, Debbie. The Tollesons bought the estate in 1991. Two years later, they purchased the property next door and incorporated it into a home makeover that was already underway. Cole Smith oversaw the renovation.

     

    "Just the land alone, 2.85 acres in this spot, could command upwards of close to $30 million," the agents say in the video.

     

    Highlights of the property include:

     
       
    • Private gated community.
    •  
    • 670-square-foot guesthouse.
    •  
    • 220-square-foot greenhouse.
    •  
    • Two spas.
    •  
    • Tennis and volleyball courts.
    •  
    • Putting green.
    •  
    • English garden and solarium with retractable cover.
    •  
     

    "Best of all, there is a 2,594-square-foot, stone-floored party pavilion (think ballroom) anchored by fireplaces at each end," CultureMap wrote in a 2016 feature on the home. "The wine cellar and commercial-grade kitchen under the party pavilion ensure that the next party you throw — like a fundraiser to, say, build a presidential library like George W. Bush’s (yes, this is where that happened) — will undoubtedly go down as a success."

     

    One-of-a-kind aspects of the estate include an antique hand-forged chandelier that actor Errol Flynn swung from in the 1935 film The Three Musketeers; three main-house staircases with custom balustrades; and antique millwork by a protégé of 17th-century Dutch-British sculptor Grinling Gibbons, whose work can be found in England's Windsor Castle.

    The solarium is off of the breakfast area and features a retractable roof (one of two in the home).

    Dallas ranks as 2nd most pet-friendly place to rent in 2024

    Rentals in Dallas that allowed pets leased three days sooner than units that didn't allow pets.

    A new market trend report from Zillow has confirmed that pet-friendly rentals are leasing much faster than non-pet-friendly units, and Dallas' rental market had the second most pet-friendly rental listings on Zillow in 2024.

    The report, called "Saying Yes to Pets Helps Landlords Find a Tenant Faster," analyzed more than 11 million rental listings that appeared on Zillow last year to discover the share of pet-friendly rental listings in the biggest U.S. metros. The report also calculated the median number of days it took for pet-friendly units to find a tenant faster than those that did not allow pets.

    The Lone Star State led the nation with the most pet-friendly rental listings on Zillow out of all 50 states last year. Nationally, only 57 percent of rental listings in the U.S. allowed pets, which is a disappointing amount when compared to the major Texas cities.

    The data revealed Dallas has a deep appreciation for pets, with 79 percent of rental listings in the city allowing tenants to have furry best friends.

    Dallas fell second only to Austin, where pet-friendly rentals accounted for 80 percent of all citywide listings on Zillow in 2024. San Antonio ranked right behind Dallas with the third highest share of rentals that allowed pets, at 78 percent. Don't mess with Texas pets, y'all.

    Surprisingly, Houston appeared at the bottom of the list as the U.S. metro with the smallest share of rental listings that allowed pets, at just 38 percent.

    The report additionally found that pet-friendly rentals in Dallas were leased three days faster than units that don't allow pets. For comparison, it took about eight days for the median U.S. pet-friendly rental to lease sooner than its non-pet-friendly counterpart.

    In a separate survey of the "typical American renter," Zillow discovered more than half of renters declined to lease a certain property because it didn't allow pets.

    "Renters have more leverage than in quite some time after last year's multifamily construction boom, and the data show allowing pets can make a difference in leasing out a unit quickly," the report said. "The median renter is getting older, and more renters now have a pet. Nearly six in 10 renters are pet owners, up from 46 percent before the pandemic."

    In Austin, rentals that allow pets lease 10 days sooner than non-pet-friendly units, and that number slows down to six days sooner in San and just one day faster in Houston.
