"La Maison des Fontaines" (House of Fountains), 2712 Mark Twain Court exhibits the French Moderne style, classic architecture with a European sensibility, a timeless interior design and décor with art deco characteristics. Completed in 2002 and designed by Don Wheaton, AIA and built by Mr. Mike Wood of Providence Homes. The current owners worked with award winning interior designer Gayla Jett Shannon, ASID to achieve the resort-like ambiance and feel prevalent throughout the home and grounds. Over 45 paint colors were used throughout the home to achieve the ultimate custom designs in every room. Featured in the May 2004 edition of Dallas Home and Design, and winning accolades from architects and designers throughout Texas, it was given the ‘Legacy of Design Award' for the State of Texas by ASID in 2003. French Classic exterior with a soft modern edge interior reminiscent of a French architecture from the early to mid 1900's.

It is one of the finest entertainment friendly homes in the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex and centrally located. Just under 15 minutes to any gate at DFW International airport, 25 minute drive to either downtown Dallas or Fort Worth and a short 5 minutes from the new Dallas Cowboy Stadium and Texas Rangers Ballpark in Arlington. This highly secured property is equipped with state of the art systems to ensure both comfort, privacy and peace of mind.

Stunning drive-up appeal reveals impeccable, professional landscaping with exterior lighting throughout the property. It's carefully scaled exterior façade provides a warm welcome with a mixture of stone, a water feature and custom wood and glass doors which reflect the detail found in the numerous dormers of light that filter into the home. For this estate, low maintenance yet lush and eye pleasing landscaping was a consideration, including remote control sprinkler systems. And the acreage around the private lake setting is maintained by the Hampden Woods Homeowner's Association. Outside patios can comfortably accommodate an intimate party or a formal gala for several hundred.

As spectacular as the outside environment, moving through this estate of quality craftsmanship, you'll find no detail forgotten. From the extensive architectural designed lighting by 2C Lighting of Dallas, Formal Dining Room Frescos by Dallas's Richard Holton of Holton Arts, chandeliers, fine flooring, intricate moldings and custom paints and frescos, the estate simply is the definition of understated elegance. Custom cabinetry and draperies fill the home by the same craftsmen that have worked on Michael Dell's home in Austin, former President Gerald Ford's home in Colorado and President George Bush's ranch home in Crawford as well as the Presidential Retreat at Camp David. This estate property was professionally molded into a European French design so rarely seen in today's estate homes.

With four bedrooms, six full bathrooms and two half baths, two kitchens, a study, a library, a game room and media room, two laundry/utility rooms, and exercise room, two indoor fireplaces, one formal and one informal dining room, balconies, a first level spacious master suite, this property also boasts a four car oversized garage and a climate controlled designer/holiday closet.

Selling Your Luxury Real Estate in Dallas Fort Worth By Auction

Stop dropping your price! If you own luxury real estate in Highland Park, Dallas, Fort Worth, Southlake, Colleyville, Frisco, Plano or any other area of DFW that is currently for sale at a price of $2 million or more, consider selling it through the auction services of Grand Estates Auction Company. We can generate a sale usually within 60 to 90 days.

With so many homes on the market, buyers can afford to sit back and wait.  They might like your property, but will be content to sit back and watch the price drop---there is no hurry with the traditional methods of selling real estate.  Auction creates a sense of urgency when a firm date is set to sell the house.  That in turn creates a competitive bidding arena for prospective buyers resulting in the highest possible price for your property.  We make it happen now, not in a year or two which eliminates thousands of dollars spent in carrying costs.  In addition, many of our properties sell for far more than anticipated.  Repeatedly, we obtain record high prices per square foot for a given location, because during auction the lure of a low price creates the reality of a high price.

Grand Estates Auction Company® specializes in the marketing and sale by auction of luxury real estate throughout North America and the Caribbean. Our company stands out in this highly specialized industry due to our proven success coupled with our state of the art and proprietary methods of obtaining a closed sale, which is why we are considered the leading authority in luxury real estate.

Our focus is to serve our clients one auction at a time, which is why we are highly selective about the properties we choose to represent. By offering only the finest luxury properties at auction we can create a more concentrated marketing effort to maximize interest and expedite the selling cycle, allowing for both buyers and sellers to take part in a swift and seamless real estate auction transaction.

• Brokers representing Buyers: Licensed real estate brokers may earn up to 3% of the selling price if their properly registered client purchases property from Grand Estates Auction Company.

• Brokers Representing Sellers: Licensed real estate brokers may earn a percentage of the selling price for offering their clients the opportunity to auction through Grand Estates Auction Company and participation in the selling of their property through the auction process.
