    Extraordinary modern ranch in Grapevine trots onto market for $7.2 million

    Amber Heckler
    Dec 16, 2024 | 11:39 am

    A stunning, 10-acre North Texas property that's fit for a modern cowboy has just hit the market for $7.2 million: Called the Willow Wood Horse Farm, the equestrian paradise is located on West Kimball Avenue in Grapevine, about 30 miles northwest of downtown Dallas.

    The ranch is a combination of elegant and thoughtful modern design paired with all of the practicality required of a fully functioning farm.

    According to the listing, which is held by Burgher-Ray Ranch Group and managed by David Burgher and Harlan Ray, the ranch includes several fenced pastures, an enclosed and insulated shop storage building with concrete flooring, and a seven-stall horse barn.

    A covered and irrigated riding arena is attached to the barn, every stall has its own turnout, and six of the stalls are 12 feet by 12 feet wide, and the seventh is designated as a foaling stall. An additional turnout for grazing is located adjacent to the barn, as well as a training pen.

    But the focal point of the entire estate is the 4,353-square-foot, three-story primary residence that sits at the highest point of the gently sloped property. The home was custom-designed and completed in 2022, featuring an exterior made of metal cladding, concrete, durable ipe hardwood, and glass.

    From the front door, guests will see views that lead through the home's living areas and into the 3,000-square-foot back deck, past the 80-foot-long saltwater swimming pool, and out toward the pastures.

    The chef's kitchen is outfitted with luxurious Gaggenau appliances, such as a steam convection oven, a conventional convection oven, a coffee machine, stove, dishwasher, a separate paneled refrigerator and freezer, and a warming drawer. A half bathroom and full butler's pantry is located to the side of the kitchen, which is equipped with a prep space and a dishwasher.

    Additional features of the home include:

    • Koi ponds located on either side of the main door that welcome guests to the home
    • An open concept living space that contains the living room, kitchen, and dining rooms
    • A primary suite with a spacious walk-in closet and en-suite bathroom
    • Two additional bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms
    • Soft opening/closing doors in all main bedrooms
    • Dynaudio speakers installed throughout the home
    • Geo-thermal heating/cooling system
    A custom-built metal spiraling staircase connects all three levels of the home. The second floor includes a viewing area with floor-to-ceiling windows and access to the covered porch and rooftop deck. The lower level leads to an "acoustically balanced" underground home theater featuring eight-foot concert walls, Dynaudio speakers, an Ember Audio sound system, a 250-bottle wine cooler, and a powder bathroom. The listing notes that this area could be converted into a storm cellar.

    A detached three-car garage is located next to the home, and has one EV charging station and two additional outlets for charging. Discreetly designed solar panels are hidden on top of the garage, which are capable of powering the entire residence.
    The horse barn, irrigation system, and stock pond all run off of a water well located on the property, while the primary residence uses city water with a filtration system.
    "Situated in the heart of the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex, just minutes from Lake Grapevine, Southlake, and an easy commute to DFW International Airport, this property affords someone the ability to have all the comforts of the city, while living just slightly removed from it all," the listing says.

    The kitchen is equipped with Gaggenau appliances.

    Southern Dallas complex wins free underground tunnel from Elon Musk

    A Southern Dallas development is in line to get a tunnel from Elon Musk: The University Hills Development, a billion-dollar housing project at the northwest corner of I-20 and Lancaster Road, has been awarded an innovative mile-long tunnel to be built by Musk’s The Boring Company, which will connect the development to a nearby DART station.

    According to a release, University Hills was among 16 finalists out of a total of 487 submissions vying to get a tunnel in a contest that The Boring Company launched in January — soliciting proposals from individuals, companies, and governments that would demonstrate the potential for tunnels to solve problems.

    Musk founded The Boring Company in 2016 as a subsidiary of SpaceX to improve tunnel boring speeds and reduce urban traffic. Now an independent entity, the company creates underground transportation tunnels with a goal of reducing traffic and enabling rapid point-to-point transportation.

    University Hills was one of three finalists in the U.S., along with NOLA Loop in New Orleans, and Ravens Loop in Baltimore. Before any tunneling begins, there'll be a diligence process which includes meetings with elected officials, regulators, community leaders, and business leaders, plus experimental borings and an investigation into the impact on utility and subsurface infrastructure. Only then will it be determined whether the tunneling ensues.

    University Hills is a 280-acre, $1 billion development in Southern Dallas by Hoque Global, which will include 580 homes with a town center at its core. If the project gets the go-ahead, that town center could now be connected by tunnel to the nearby DART Station at the University of North Texas Dallas.

    Hoque Global founder and CEO Mike Hoque calls it "an honor to be recognized with the City of Dallas as the winning project for The Boring Company’s Tunnel Vision Challenge."

    “University Hills is innovative in all of its features to bring connectivity and growth, and this recognition highlights the development’s landmark work for Dallas and Southern Dallas, and shows how emerging infrastructure solutions can strengthen access to transit, jobs, and opportunity for the surrounding community," Hoque says.

    Dr. Warren von Eschenbach, the president of the University of North Texas at Dallas, says the project will strengthen connection with the community.

    “UNT Dallas is pleased this innovative tunnel will increase access to and from our campus and the region,” Eschenbach says. “It symbolizes the continued growth of Southern Dallas through technology, collaboration and forward-thinking and will strengthen the community surrounding the University."

    Groundbreaking and timing for the project to be announced, based on planning and permitting with The Boring Company and City of Dallas.
