Somewhere, someone just purchased their Texas dream. For a cool $16 million, this newly constructed equestrian estate spent all of three days on the market before someone snapped it up (a Dallas-Fort Worth real estate record for the price range). Situated on 72 acres along Rockgate Road in Bartonville (near DFW Airport), the estate includes an 8,000-square-foot-plus modern home, a custom-built barn, and world-class equestrian facilities.
The Home
Constructed in 2020 by Noble Custom Homes and F+W Architects Southlake, the four bedroom, 4.1 bathroom dwelling defies any ranch house stereotypes. With a sophisticated style and modern Texan sensibility, the thoughtfully designed home features a 500-bottle wine cellar, his-and-her offices, and a media room. Soaring ceilings and ample steel-frame windows allow occupants to take in the stunning property, which includes an outdoor patio and manicured pool.
The Barn
An equestrian lover’s paradise, the custom-built barn — designed by C4 Architecture— is the standout of the sprawling property. All 24 oversized stalls feature electrical access, individual fan controls, fly control, and rear-facing windows, with a center aisle capable of accommodating vehicles dropping off feed. Staff apartments, a large feed room, laundry room, locker room, and lounge complete a space suitable for even the most elite equestrian.
The Grounds
Even with sweeping views from the house and the barn’s lounge, it would be impossible to take in all 72 acres of this notable Texas property. Beyond the barn, the grounds encompass four individual acre turnouts, as well as covered and outdoor arenas equipped with durable GGT-Footing.
