On a more serious note, I wanted to shine the spotlight on a Builder-Client of mine. MPL Homes (Modern Place Living) has been building Modern homes around the Dallas area for the past 10 years. I have had the privelege of working with Mei Lee, Owner/Builder/Architect of MPL. (Talk about wearing many hats). Mei and her team at MPL build Extremely high quality homes. The energy efficiency of their homes is amazing. I recently spoke to a new homeowner of a Spec that MPL built. A 3300 sq.ft., 2 story townhome in Oaklawn. Her electricity bill in May of this year, was $135.00. In this Texas heat, with the A/C on pretty much all day.. $135.00!!! That is jaw dropping. Here are a few homes that our ModernDFW division is currently listing for sale, and coming soon on the market:

5916 Preston Haven Dr. $1,199,000. In the heart of N. Dallas. Preston Hollow Modern Home. 4 Bedrooms + Media Room + Study. 5000 Sq.ft.

Coming Soon- 3700 W. Beverly. 3 Bedroom in West Highland Park. 3500 sq.ft. Price not finalized yet.  

Coming Soon- 5615 La Foy Blvd. 3 Bedroom Townhome in West Highland Park. 3300 sq.ft. - List Price $525,000.

Hello there! Yeah Yeah, I know its been a while since we posted a topic on our blog. Things have been really busy here at G&A. New listings, new buyers, can't believe that in August, it will be our 1 year Anniversary! Anyways, I wanted to let you guys know about my buddy and fellow Real Estate Broker, Clay Stapp. Clay owns CLAY STAPP+CO., a Boutique Brokerage that specializes in in-town properties. You have probably seen Clay's catchy adevertisements on the Mckinney Trolley. Clay is a good friend of mine. I recently showed one of my Buyer Clients Clay's Listing on Brown St. in Oaklawn. A modern, 3 story townhome with amazing amenities. My favorite part of the house is the staircase and decorative wall design behind it, check it out:

Ladies and Gentlemen..Its Baaaaaaaaack.

After a little over a month of being off the Market, the Beautiful Cantoni House is back on the Market. This 4 Bedroom/ 5.5 Bathroom Modern masterpiece is located on Lakehurst St. in Preston Hollow. Cantoni Founder Michael Wilkov describes "Axis"-

"This is artful living. The concept for the Cantoni House was born from the desire to achieve a marriage of great modern architecture with the Cantoni Collection by utilizing all the resources of the Cantoni Design Studio. Today many homes are built without taking into consideration a design plan for the interiors of the home. We believe that, with the resources of the Cantoni Design Studio and our talented architectural and construction team, we have the perfect solution to building and designing fully furnished homes. This approach is unique in the Dallas area and we feel that we will be redefining the way modern homes are built and purchased in this market. Axis, our premier Cantoni House is located in the exclusive Preston Hollow area. We have selected the very best partners for our projects and our vision is to build and furnish homes of the highest quality and design."

This month's Modern Home of the Month is what we call a " Throwback". A gorgeous Mid-Century Modern Home in East Dallas. Built in 1960, this home has been amazingly updated. One of the Few Mid-Century "Smart" Homes in Dallas- Control Everything from the Security System, HVAC, Music, and T.V's from one of the many touchscreen monitors throughout this home. 3 Bedrooms, 3.5 Bathrooms, but nothing compares to the Unprecendented views of White Rock Lake and the Dallas Skyline from this Home.
