There’s a French Transitional spec house in Preston Hollow that adheres to the rule of threes: three wine refrigerators in the bar area, three wall ovens in the kitchen, and third-generation builder Colby Craig to finish it all out.

Craig, of the firm Created by CASON, is a big reason why 6019 Prestonshire Ln. is so stunning. Local real estate expert Candy Evans has invited us inside for a video home tour of the five-bedroom, seven-bathroom home, which is listed by Kay Weeks and Danielle Brasher with Ebby Halliday Realtors for $2,495,000.

Evans and Craig recently took a spin around the 7,596-square-foot new build, which was designed by Richard Drummond Davis, to ooh and ahh at the sleek and elegant spaces, not to mention the to-die-for bathrooms and one of the prettiest closets this side of a high-end boutique.

As the pair points out the exquisite materials and finishes — all professional kitchen appliances come from Pirch, for example, and the giant Calcutta marble island was honed to reduce some of its typical shininess — it's easy to forget that this luxurious abode is also in an extremely coveted location near Walnut Hill Lane and Preston Road.

Hardwoods in herringbone patterns and cascading crystal chandeliers amp up the French glamour, while loads of built-ins mean you might actually have to go buy more stuff. Just make sure it’s all as pretty as the home it’s going into.

Grand Prairie expands to the south with new master-planned community

Goodland Grand Prairie

The City of Grand Prairie is growing fast and expanding to make way for a new master-planned development south of US Highway 287 and along Tollway 360, in Ellis and Johnson counties.

The community development, called Goodland, is the result of Grand Prairie’s recent 1,500-acre annexation extending its southern border toward Mansfield. Overall, with the added land, Goodland will be a 5,000-acre site featuring 15,000 residences including townhomes, custom homes, and gated communities for 50,000 residents.

According to a release, it will be a “city within a city” and a 45-minute drive from Dallas-Fort Worth. Beyond housing, there will be shops, restaurants, schools, public and private event venues, regional sports fields and complexes, dance halls, churches, trail systems, city parks, ponds, and preserved green spaces.

“This is a significant step in our city’s development,” says Grand Prairie Mayor Ron Jensen in a statement. “Unlike many of our neighboring cities, we have the unique advantage of new development opportunities to our south that will drive the growth and prosperity of our city. We recognized the opportunity and took decisive action.”

Leading the development is Provident, a Dallas-based real estate firm that has created other master-planned communities across Dallas-Fort Worth, such as Preston Hollow Village and Hillstead in Collin County. Provident has plans to work nature into the space design with more than 1,600 acres of creek corridors and floodplain land.

Plans are ongoing for a centralized mixed-use walkable Town Center, complete with civic buildings and other commercial development. Further south on the property near Highway 67, light industrial uses and other private employment campuses are already underway, projects that will contribute vital tax dollars for city growth and future expansions.

“This level of placemaking is quite rare, and certainly not easy to execute, especially in a brand-new community," says Provident Managing Director Rylan Yowell in a statement. "We are committed to a long-term vision with a desire to be good stewards of the land."

A new four-lane road called Goodland Parkway will link Goodland to Grand Prairie at Tollway 360 and US Highway 287. It's set to open by December 2025.
