The Lone Star state<\/a> has a shiny new real estate star in the form of a spectacular Dallas<\/a> castle that is rising in prominence after returning to the market for just under $7 million. <\/p>\n

Deep in one of the city\u2019s most exclusive gated suburbs, the grand lakeside estate looks like a modern-day fairy tale palace, having been built to mirror the historic castles of old\u2014albeit with a much more luxurious, forward-thinking spin. <\/p>\n

The more than 10,000-square-foot residence at 2105 Bayshore Drive<\/a> is now being offered for $6.99 million, down from its $8.75 million listing price in August 2025.<\/p>\n

And while the home is less than 25 minutes from downtown Dallas, it certainly doesn\u2019t feel like it. Set on roughly two private acres backing directly onto protected Corps of Engineers land near Grapevine Lake, the estate offers a level of seclusion that\u2019s increasingly difficult to find in North Texas<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s incredibly rare to find approximately two private acres backing to protected property within a gated luxury community,\u201d says listing agent Kim Bedwell<\/a> of Briggs Freeman Sotheby’s International Realty. <\/p>\n

\u201cThe combination of privacy, scale, natural beauty, and proximity to the city makes this a truly exceptional offering.\u201d<\/p>\n

Originally built as a luxury multigenerational retreat in 2001, the six-bedroom residence balances grand architecture with surprisingly warm, livable interiors. And from the moment you step inside, the scale is unmistakable.<\/p>\n

An extraordinary wooden spiral staircase greets visitors as they step through the front door, while an enormous double-height great room, complete with its own dining area, creates a dramatic introduction to the dwelling. <\/p>\n

\u201cFeatures like vaulted ceilings, extensive millwork, multiple living spaces, and large windows overlooking the surrounding trees give the home a very refined yet comfortable atmosphere,\u201d says Bedwell.<\/p>\n

A seamless blend of old-world style and new-world luxury can be found throughout every living space in the property, with modern amenities designed to ensure a truly luxurious living experience, while top-of-the-line design details harken back to a bygone era. <\/p>\n

The estate includes four fireplaces, a dedicated home theater, guest quarters, and an expansive six-car garage. <\/p>\n

The kitchen is outfitted with commercial-grade appliances, while smart-home features throughout the residence include electric shades, integrated sound system wiring, and thoughtfully designed spaces built for entertaining.<\/p>\n

Sprinkled among this modern luxuries are exposed wooden beams, vaulted ceilings, exposed stone walls, and carved mantels, all of which provide that regal feel that the estate has become known for. <\/p>\n

Several areas have also been updated in recent years, including the primary bathroom, closets, and the finishes surrounding the living room fireplace.<\/p>\n

But according to Bedwell, it\u2019s ultimately the home\u2019s indoor-outdoor lifestyle, combined with its proximity to the city, that will resonate most with buyers. <\/p>\n

\u201cThe location offers a rare balance of privacy and convenience,\u201d Bedwell says. \u201cResidents enjoy gated lake-community living with a resort-style pool, spa, covered patios, and protected greenbelt views, while still being close to everything.\u201d<\/p>\n

Residents are just minutes from shopping, golf courses, hiking trails, and the DFW Airport.<\/p>\n

“Located within one of Flower Mounds most prestigious gated communities and just minutes from shopping, dining, and major thoroughfares, this estate represents a rare opportunity to enjoy refined lakeside living in an exceptional setting,” the listing notes. <\/p>\n

For buyers seeking something beyond the typical modern mansion, this castle-like estate offers the chance to own a bit of lakeside storybook magic just outside Dallas.<\/p>\n
