This home in Dallas, Texas has a quiet charm. The white manor style home has three levels of living space and there is also a two-story guest house/cabana, an outdoor cooking, dining and living space and a lagoon pool and spa that are all connected to the house. The home is full of luxury appointments but the scale of the home is very intimate with smaller rooms rather than large echoing spaces. The round dining room has an oversized wood-burning fireplace with marble surround and a domed ceiling with coved lighting. The living room has very attractive bookcases and cabinets and there is also a mahogany-paneled library with French doors leading to a covered terrace. The sunroom has a bead-board ceiling, stained concrete floors, flat-screen television and French doors opening onto covered terraces. The kitchen includes a vegetable sink with disposal, built-in cutting board, icemaker, Miele dishwasher, two refrigerator drawers and a breakfast bar. A butler's pantry has a Viking warming drawer, wine refrigerator, trough sink and a china and silver closet. A bar area is equipped with a copper sink, refrigerator and icemaker. The master suite has a cast-stone fireplace with flat-screen television above, a private covered terrace, and a marble bathroom with an infinity-edge spa tub and a dual head shower plus rain head, The suite also has a coffee bar with sink and refrigerator. The lower level has a media room with adjacent kitchen area, exercise room, wine cellar with capacity for approximately 2,500 bottles, a very nice guest room, and full bath. The outdoor living room has a stacked stone fireplace and a 48" Wolf grill with two side burners, refrigerator and icemaker. The guest house/cabana has a living room, kitchen and a full bath on the first floor and a guest room and full bath on the second. The pool area seems a bit crowded but otherwise this is a very gracious home. Other details include a slate roof with copper gutters, an Elan central audio/video computerized system with touch panels and speakers in most rooms and an emergency power generator running on a natural gas line. It is listed at $5.295 million. After the jump, dining in the round.

Well of course the wine celler is great. But other than that it doesn't seem to have great personality or any unique charm.

Did this home come with any land? It seemed like it was on a regular lot.
