A modern architectural gem, located at 11345 W. Ricks Circle in Dallas’ prestigious Preston Hollow neighborhood, is now on the market. Known for its sleek minimalist design and harmonious integration with nature, this glass-encased estate is listed for $8.9 million by Eric Narosov of Allie Beth Allman and Associates. The 6,325-square-foot residence, completed in 2017 by the acclaimed Hocker Design Group, rests on a 1.33-acre lot adorned with mature trees and a sculptural black granite pool, offering a unique blend of artistic elegance and natural beauty.
Drawing inspiration from the iconic Farnsworth House by Mies van der Rohe, the home mirrors the dramatic modernist vibe of the famous glass house from Ferris Bueller’s Day Off. The estate encompasses three bedrooms and four bathrooms, with floor-to-ceiling glass walls, over 60 tons of steel, and 40 slabs of Calacatta marble used in its construction. Its cantilevered structure, featuring custom acoustic ceilings and a four-car garage, adds to the allure, providing both architectural ingenuity and luxurious living space.
Preston Hollow itself is a neighborhood synonymous with affluence and exclusivity, home to prominent figures such as former President George W. Bush, entrepreneur Mark Cuban, and Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones. Located minutes from Downtown Dallas, the area boasts gated estates and elite private schools, consistently ranking as one of the most desirable residential locales in Texas. Currently, four properties in the area exceed $20 million, highlighting the neighborhood’s status, with the Crespi Estate setting the market high at $64 million.
As office and commercial property markets experience fluctuations, the demand for luxury homes in Dallas’ elite neighborhoods like Preston Hollow remains robust, particularly for properties that are not only residences but also works of art. For discerning buyers, 11345 W. Ricks Circle presents an extraordinary opportunity to own a piece of architectural brilliance in one of Texas’ most coveted locations.
