a Nearly 10 years ago, Dallas-based W2 Studio began renovating a classic 1952 home in Lakewood proper in a way that reflected the principles of midcentury modern design. The 3,696-square-foot property features strong Frank Lloyd Wright influences, as well as modern accents like Noguchi-inspired bubble pendants and dramatic slat walls that provide both aesthetic appeal and privacy.
The Dallas-based architect lovingly renovated the site of this 1950s home to take advantage of the towering mature trees and zen backyard. David Rolstondesigned a lush, low-maintenance, drought-tolerant retreat where the second-floor main suite features a private patio overlooking the pool, and the spacious rooftop deck is perfect for yoga or entertaining.
Shiny custom wood accents are luxurious, stone walls are striking, and flawless terrazzo tile is used liberally. But what completely captivated us about 7151 Wildgrove was the newly built 870-square-foot guesthouse, which looks like it was plucked from a five-star auberge. The dreamy poolside retreat features walls of glass, a full bathroom, and a sleek chef’s kitchen with views across Rolleston’s sophisticated outdoor oasis. This is truly a midcentury modern complex, perfectly shaded, and in a prime location near Tokalong Park and White Rock Lake.
7151 Wildgrove Avenue is priced at $2,450,000 and Clifton Kessler of Allie Beth Allman & AssociatesIt has six bedrooms, five bathrooms and is just under 3,700 sq ft. An open house will be held on Saturday, May 11th from 2-4pm.
