    Urban excitement meets suburban ease at these luxury Richardson apartments

    Looking for the convenience of city living with the calm of a suburban dwelling? The Alexan Central apartments in Richardson strike the perfect balance, with close proximity to Dallas plus the perks of Richardson.

    Located in CityLine, that oh-so-hot new development of shops, restaurants, and offices, the community boasts luxury apartments outfitted with stainless steel appliances, concrete and hardwood floors, and wine racks (practical). Up in the breathtaking Sky Lounge, you can host guests or just enjoy the fresh air. The gym is stocked with Matrix Bluetooth equipment, and you'll find not one but two pools: one for mingling and another fitted with a volleyball net.

    There’s also a sand volleyball recreation area, so if there’s already a game going in the pool, try out the sport on sandy land. Want to throw something for a four-legged friend? The enclosed Pet Park is where Fido can run free while you mingle with other pet owners in the building.

    If your little ones are less on the furry side, keep in mind that the building is in the Plano Independent School District — the premier district for education. The University of Texas — Dallas' Comet Cruiser stops right in front of the Alexan Central on Pipeline Drive, so college students have an easy route to class. There’s also convenient access to the DART, which can take employees to work at businesses such as State Farm, Cisco, Raytheon, Texas Instruments, Texas Health Resources, and Children’s Medical.

    Outside the apartments themselves, CityLine shows no signs of slowing down. The area offers lots of events and gatherings for residents, from a live music series with local artists every Friday and Saturday to Reef Point Yoga's free Saturday morning classes in the CityLine plaza. After you namaste, you can make your way to the farmers market off Belt Line that is open every Saturday, or swing by Whole Foods Market and CVS to pick up groceries and necessities.

    For an active afternoon, hike or bike along the nature trail that connects to the 40-mile Spring Creek Trail. Check out a VBike, located right outside the leasing office, for a sweet ride on two wheels.

    Have guests in town for an event? The newly opened Aloft hotel is walking distance from the Alexan Central, and its XYZ bar is yet another great place to meet up with friends for a drink. But if you're looking for more substantial dining options, there are countless exciting restaurants right nearby: Good Union Urban BBQ, Tom + Chee, Jasper’s, Super Chix, Modern Market, Coal Vines, Edoko Sushi, Pho is for Lovers, Taco Diner. Of course, there are also the staples: Starbucks and Chick-Fil-A.

    Find your new home in this booming area, where you’re certain to find your stride. For more information about the Alexan Central, call 844-841-4452 or visit here.

    Luxe touches abound in each unit.

    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.
