Preston Hollow Acreage
5230 Yolanda Lane, Dallas, Texas - Torn Down

Original Home, 1.21 Acres, 200 Feet Wide  Sold by Douglas Newby

The most desirable Preston Hollow lots are on quiet streets and often in the middle of a block of other wide estate lots. A site like this provides privacy and a sweeping drive through an allée of Live Oak trees that conveys the original natural elegance of Preston Hollow. A tornado swept through Lobello Estates removing these live oaks and creating a blank slate for a new architect designed Dallas modern home.

Wide Preston Hollow Lot

What is the point of living in the estate area of Preston Hollow with curbless tree-lined streets if your home is on a narrow, deep lot and next to large houses stacked side by side, reminiscent of a townhouse neighborhood? The continuous sweeping lawns on Yolanda Lane convey the relaxed atmosphere of Preston Hollow versus the frenetic and crowded urbanity that has taken over so many neighborhoods in the Park Cities and Dallas.


A Delightful Home is Added Attraction and Value

There are very few lots as perfect as this one for a new architect-designed home, but there is no rush. The current home is also delightful for a family. The living spaces are open with high ceilings and large windows, with wonderful informal family spaces. An updated kitchen and redone master bathroom contribute to this livable and enjoyable home.

Where Prominent Pediatricians Chose to Raise Their Three Children

Here is a home that will continue to be a magnet for school parties and a home that both children and parents will enjoy. A midcentury style and contemporary warmth permeates this comfortable home.

Gently Rolling Land

The rear garden is an open expanse of gently rolling land with the swimming pool tucked close to the house, allowing massive amounts of land on which to run or play.

Property Framed by Trees

Toweringtrees surround this Preston Hollow lot, framing a green canvas for outdoor games and adventures.

Architects Create Value

Even when the value of this Preston Hollow property is in the land, the quality and livability of the current home is enhanced by the original architect and subsequent architects like Ted Larson, AIA, and Paul Pedigo, AIA.

A Modern Home Across the Street

The homes on Yolanda are predominantly spacious one-story homes that keep the architectural continuity of the neighborhood. Across the street a modern home reflects the architectural direction of the neighborhood. A nice blend of architect-designed modern and period homes keep the Preston Hollow neighborhood feel and shows the positive evolution of the neighborhood.

Preston Hollow Opportunity

The location, land and lot are what propels the value and long term attractiveness of this site and property. What a great opportunity to have this investment and a lovely 5,500 square foot four-bedroom home to live and enjoy before you sell the land or build a new architect-designed home.
