A Mediterranean mansion in Highland Park was purchased by the grandson of an oil magnate and his wife.
William Paul Getty — the grandson of oil billionaire J. Paul Getty — and his wife, Vanessa Getty, a philanthropist and socialite, purchased the Highland Park property in June, according to Dallas County documents.
The Highland Park home at 3515 Crescent Ave. was last listed for nearly $20 million and was one of Dallas-Fort Worth’s most expensive listings still on the market at the end of 2025.
The Gettys bought the home through a trust. Although sale price was not disclosed, the Gettys took out a loan of $11.5 million, according to county documents.
William Paul Getty’s grandfather, J. Paul Getty owned a controlling interest in Getty Oil Co. and was considered the richest man in the world at the time of his death.
J. Paul Getty founded the J. Paul Getty Trust, which operates the Getty, a museum complex in Los Angeles. The Getty name is also present in Getty Images, which was co-founded by Mark Getty, one of J. Paul Getty’s grandsons.
The Real Deal first reported the home had been purchased by the Gettys.
The mansion sits at the end of a stone pathway on a roughly half-acre lot in Highland Park.
Visitors will first see an arched entry and curved staircase as they enter the home. Built in 2009, the approximately 11,400-square-foot home has seven bedrooms, nine full bathrooms and one half bathroom.
The mansion has an owner’s suite with a spacious sitting area, a midnight kitchen and a spa-like bath. Outside, the property includes a pool, a cascading water feature and a fire pit.
The home also has a chef’s kitchen that connects to a wine cellar and bar, a media theater and a five-car garage, according to Architecturally Significant Homes. The home is within the Highland Park Independent School District.
It was first listed for $21 million in November 2025, according to Zillow. The listing was removed in May when the home was priced at nearly $20 million.
José Roberto Quiroz Mata and Rosa María Mata Torrallardona signed as sellers of the home. Both are board members for Grupo Bimbo, a food company that owns brands like Takis and Little Bites.
Pogir Pogir of Briggs Freeman Sotheby’s International Realty represented the seller and declined to comment. Meanwhile, Douglas Newby of Douglas Newby & Associates represented the buyer, according to Architecturally Significant Homes. Newby didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.
The home was valued at $12 million by the Dallas Central Appraisal District for tax purposes.
