Nestled near the storied enclaves of Swiss Avenue and Munger Place, 5422 Gaston Avenue is one of two Georgian "Two Sisters" homes built a block apart, designed by the noted architect Bertram Hill of the Adolphus Hotel, Dallas Country Club, and the Swiss Avenue and Highland Park residential fame.
Lovely formal rooms, each with a fireplace, flank an expansive foyer with the original oak staircase as the centerpiece. Beyond the living room is an exceptional Rookwood-tiled sunroom with fountain. The butler's pantry, featuring built-in cabinetry, provides entry to the back stairway. Adjacent, the kitchen showcases striking marble counters, a commercial Wolf range, Miele appliances and a center island. Also on the main floor is a sunlit breakfast room, a utility room, and the original tiled powder room.
Upstairs, the generous primary suite boasts a fireplace, a large California Closet, an additional cedar closet, and a beautifully updated marble bathroom with an oversized shower. Two additional light-filled bedrooms share a connected bath. A wine cellar in the basement, along with both basement and attic storage, add to the home's thoughtful design.
Set on an expansive, beautifully landscaped property, the home also features a recently renovated pool and spa, a garage with an income-producing 649-square-foot Carriage House, a raised herb garden, and a turfed play area.
Thoughtfully constructed in every detail, this stately home--now celebrating its Centennial year--has been extensively renovated, ensuring its historic charm is seamlessly paired with modern functionality for the next generation.
