4656 Christopher PlaceDallas, TX 75204Price: $1,350,000

A private gate. A tree-lined drive sloping toward Turtle Creek. And behind it - one of only 25 townhomes in Christopher Place, a gated enclave so quiet most of Dallas doesn't know it exists. This European-inspired residence delivers the drama the moment you walk in - soaring double-height ceilings in the main living area, multiple skylights pouring natural light through every level, and crystal chandeliers and wrought-iron railings that thread old-world elegance through a thoroughly modern renovation. The remodeled kitchen features marble countertops, a patterned tile backsplash, a professional-grade gas range, and a built-in refrigerator with custom cabinetry panels. A walk-in pantry with its own countertop for small appliances keeps the workspace clean. The formal dining room offers wainscoting, glass-front cabinetry, and its own chandelier - sized for entertaining. Upstairs, the primary suite occupies its own wing with hardwood floors, a generous sitting area, French doors to a private balcony, and a fully remodeled bath with freestanding soaking tub, dual marble vanities, and an oversized glass-enclosed shower. A second ensuite bedroom and an open loft overlooking the living room below complete the upper level. Outside, a private flagstone courtyard is framed by stone walls, a carved fountain, and bamboo screening - an outdoor room that feels lifted from the Mediterranean. A wrought-iron balcony above connects the indoor and outdoor living. Christopher Place sits along Turtle Creek Park, with an HOA-maintained section providing a private creekside retreat for residents. The Katy Trail is moments away, Highland Park borders the community to the north, and the best of Uptown and Oak Lawn are just beyond the gate.
