magine a home that's as bold and majestic as a mountain peak, with solid foundations, elegant lines, and breathtaking views at every level. This architectural masterpiece at 25 Balmoral in Richardson's Hills of Breckinridge neighborhood is carved into the landscape like a modern fortress, blending art and engineering seamlessly.
Set within a quiet, gated community surrounded by over 400 acres of parkland, this four-bedroom, five-bathroom home on 0.57 acres feels like a private retreat. The exterior façade is a harmonious blend of natural stone, smooth stucco, and sharp metal rooflines, while the interior boasts 6,297 square feet of opulent living space.
Inside, soaring 20-foot ceilings, hickory floors, and exposed steel beams create a dramatic atmosphere, while floor-to-ceiling windows invite the outdoors in. A brick wall rises through the home, grounding the space with texture and history. The result is a Richardson residence that's both rugged and refined – a true masterpiece.
Functionality matches the design, with an elevator connecting the main floor to lofted bedroom suites above and a 3,145-square-foot epoxy-coated garage hidden in the hillside. This secret hideaway can accommodate over eight vehicles or a prized collection of "grown-up toys."
"The sellers had a remarkable vision – blending brick, warm wood, and modern steel beams to create a home that's as stylish as it is functional," notes agent Brian Shuey. The outdoor loggia is the perfect spot to watch college football, while the kitchen is a culinary base camp with a stunning natural wood island, quartz countertops, and designer fixtures.
A 16-foot scullery keeps everything prep-ready, and the wet bar is equipped for year-round gatherings. The backyard features a sleek pool, spa, stone fire pit, and epic loggia – complete with TVs, steel shutters, and a fireplace.
"This is one of the most talked-about homes in the neighborhood – truly a standout in a quiet, gated pocket of a custom community," says Tracey Shuey. Come explore the peak of Richardson residential perfection at 25 Balmoral, listed for $2.75 million with Shuey Group at Ebby Halliday Real Estate.
