Step into one of Dallas’ most inspiring homes. Designed by Architect, David Webster George, this distinctive home showcases George’s strong sense of design. A protégé of famed Architect, Frank Lloyd Wright, George shared Wright’s belief that an architect is to help people understand how to make life more beautiful, which is evident in his design of 5501 Northaven. Hidden from the street, the grounds are a lush compound of greenery & the home weaves around the property as seamlessly as the creek bed that runs through it. Cantilevered edges, bridges, skylights, cedar beamed ceilings, concrete floors & large windows summon the outdoors in, creating the perfect juxtaposition of contemporary styling with the variations of nature. Museum finished walls create the perfect canvas for an art collection & a 632sf guest quarters forms the perfect space for an office or studio. Complete with a three-car garage, gated drive & single level living, David George beckons us to enhance the way we live.
