DALLAS, TX — Ever wondered what $64 million can buy you in Dallas, Texas? (Hint: It’s not just a home—it’s a kingdom.) This jaw-dropping estate in Dallas is one of the most iconic in the country. It’s got everything from a library shipped in from France to a heliport out back. Florida may be flashy, but this Texas titan has its own kind of old-world sparkle. Let’s take a look inside…
A Real-Life Chateau, Right in Dallas
Built in 1938 for Italian count Pio Crespi, this 27,000+ square foot palace was designed by Swiss architect Maurice Fatio. Think French elegance meets Southern scale. Every inch of this estate feels like it’s from another time—yet it’s decked out with every modern luxury you could want.
You’ve got 10 bedrooms, 17 bathrooms, and not one but two wine cellars. Hosting? You could invite the whole town and still have space to spare.
The Features That Make You Say, “Wait…WHAT?”
Inside, the estate is packed with jaw-dropping features. There’s a 3,000-square-foot primary suite—larger than most full homes—alongside a library imported from France, a grand ballroom, and a glamorous Art Deco bar.
You’ll also find a media room, a 19-seat private theater, a conservatory, multiple kitchens, 11 fireplaces, and even an elevator.
Step outside and the luxury continues. A 4,800-square-foot entertainment pavilion anchors the grounds, joined by a guesthouse, greenhouses, tennis and bocce courts, a swimming pool, spa, cabana, and lush gardens winding around a creek.
And yes, there’s a heliport. All of this spans nearly 16 acres—an incredibly rare stretch of land in Dallas.
A Peek Into the Past—and the Future
This estate has hosted some big names over the decades—presidents, royalty, even Coco Chanel. With its stone walls, slate roof, and traditional French design, it looks like it was plucked from the countryside of Europe. But behind the classical design is top-of-the-line everything: energy-efficient systems, smart home wiring, and serious security.
Plus, it’s been enhanced by renowned architect Peter Marino, known for luxury that speaks volumes without shouting.
