Architect-designed by acclaimed architect Bill Booziotis in the late 1970s, this distinctive residence blends timeless modern design, exceptional craftsmanship, and gallery-style living within a private Dallas enclave. Thoughtfully created for art collectors and sophisticated entertaining, the home features museum-quality lighting, expansive display walls, and dramatic floor-to-ceiling windows throughout the living, dining, and gallery spaces. A custom sculptural iron fence by renowned artist George Tobolowsky adds privacy and architectural character.
The serene central courtyard serves as an outdoor living retreat with in-ground water features, gas lanterns, and café lighting that create a warm ambiance for entertaining or relaxing evenings at home.
The spacious floor plan offers four upstairs bedrooms, including a luxurious primary suite with dual baths and balcony access overlooking the courtyard. A secondary bedroom also opens to a private balcony. The richly appointed den includes custom built-ins and a wet bar, while the kitchen features recently replaced appliances and opens to a light-filled breakfast room ideal for flexible living, office, studio, or library use, with an adjacent full bath.
Additional features include a heated and cooled gym, three-car garage with EV charging outlet, 60 kW whole-home generator, and architectural lighting throughout. Residents enjoy access to a community pool and tennis court within this limited-access neighborhood.
Ideally located near the Dallas North Tollway, Love Field Airport, premier shopping, dining, private schools, and major business corridors, 12 Royal Way offers a rare opportunity to own an architecturally significant home combining privacy, artistic living, and enduring design in the heart of Dallas.
