Spread over 48,000 square feet, this self-effacing little chalet sitting on 140 acres is 15 minutes away from the north of Dallas Airport, Texas. Taking inspiration from numerous buildings, almost four-long years were invested constructing it. It features an indoor pool, an L-shaped outdoor pool that’s bordered by courtyard of uneven flagstones, shade trees and vast stretch of turf. An entry into this villa would make you realize the level of profligacy done on this two-story master clandestine and ballroom is evocative of Versailles.

The media room imitates the Paris Opera, equipped with theater boxes. Its 78-foot-high rotunda is pinnacled by a crows nest offering distant views. Other striking highlights of the estate include hand-carved moldings, custom-made Italian chandeliers, imported fabrics, carpets and much more. How can I forget to mention that it has no less than nine fireplaces, six bedding and 6.8 baths?
