    Sky-Rise Living

    Dallas dweller finds ideal urban oasis at city's most eagerly awaited high-rise

    CultureMap Create
    Feb 12, 2015 | 1:22 pm

    Lifelong Dallasite Shawn Terry is about to have a new home address. This month, the investment banker and co-founder of MHT Midspan became the latest owner of a new Bleu Ciel condominium.

    Situated within the 18-city block district of HARWOOD, the 33-story condominium tower is being developed by Harwood International. The property will offer the location and amenities that today’s discriminating homebuyers demand.

    “I was looking into moving from my home in Kessler Park into the city, but there were very few options that offered the quality of design and amenities I wanted,” Terry says. “Harwood International’s high-rises far exceeded any other developer.”

    Just 10 years ago, the Dallas urban living scene looked decidedly different, with few opportunities for upscale in-city living. However, the desire for work-live-play communities, local retail and a diverse yet close-knit neighborhood have fueled the development of mixed-use areas such as the district of HARWOOD.

    Now, as Dallas has earned an international reputation as a cosmopolitan city — thanks in part to a world-renowned arts district, multiple sporting venues, and a long list of lauded retail and dining establishments — it has transformed in to what Terry calls an “urban oasis.” Affluent professionals like Terry want to live in areas that facilitate their active lifestyles, offer a breadth of culinary experiences and provide convenience. The fact that Bleu Ciel is adjacent to the fitness-friendly Katy Trail and within walking distance to his place of work are two other reasons why Terry chose to move.

    Beauty inside and out
    Inside the community, Bleu Ciel has it all: a world-class spa, innovative fitness center, two Olympic-sized pools, private garages, valet and concierge services, private dog park, private wine tasting room, and a social room with kitchen and cinema. Terry and the other residents will also enjoy select retail on the ground floor, including a gourmet grocery market offering resident delivery, bike shop, juice bar and additional dining establishments.

    And then there are the views. Residents will have floor-to-ceiling windows and sweeping terraces that afford 360-degree panoramic views of downtown, Park Cities and the Margaret Hunt Hill Bridge.

    A prominent location, grand amenities and pristine finishes are many of the reasons why affluent professionals of all ages are moving to Bleu Ciel.

    Bleu Ciel is poised to redefine luxury Sky-rise Living. Discover all that Bleu Ciel has to offer with a visit to the sales center at 3008 N. Harwood St., or call 214-965-1099. Please also visit us online and on Facebook.

    A sprawling, 13-acre waterfront estate about two hours south of Dallas is hitting the auction block. Bidding on the Oxbow Overlook estate, just outside the Central Texas town of Belton, is scheduled to start February 13 on the Sotheby’s Concierge Auctions website.

    The sale process will conclude February 28 when the estate is featured at ModaMiami, a luxury event hosted by South Florida’s Biltmore Miami-Coral Gables.

    The property, at 8536 Armstrong Rd., is co-listed at $5.95 million by Debbie Stevenson of Kuper Sotheby’s International Realty. Bidding will start at $2 million to $2.5 million.

    “This incomparable offering perfectly captures the essence of refined Hill Country living,” Stevenson says. “From its serene creekside setting and acres of privacy to its remarkable architectural details, Oxbow Overlook delivers a level of craftsmanship and lifestyle that is rarely available.”

    Built in 2001 of native limestone and stone, the French Provincial-inspired main house boasts a 24-foot entry wall made of iron and glass, and a grand foyer crowned by a 31-foot copper dome ceiling. The ceiling hovers above an oak staircase with copper accents.

    Other highlights of Oxbow Overlook’s nearly 7,000-square-foot main house include:

    • Six bedrooms
    • Five full bathrooms and two half-bathrooms
    • Seven fireplaces
    • Three laundry rooms
    • Wet bar
    • Eat-in kitchen
    • Elevator access to second story
    • Home office
    • Game room
    • Exercise pool with swim jets and spa
    • Outdoor kitchen
    • Covered and open patios
    • Coffered and beamed ceilings
    • Crown molding
    • Indoor and outdoor fireplaces
    • Generac backup generator

    The property includes a separate 3,118-square-foot carriage house.

    Oxbow Overlook is close to Belton Lake, Stillhouse Hollow Lake, Salado, and Temple.

    “Designed to embrace its natural surroundings, creekside walls, and outdoor living spaces conform to the bluff’s natural curve, offering spectacular views across the property and showcasing thoughtful conveniences at every turn,” Sotheby’s Concierge Auctions says.
