Just a 20-minute ride outside of Dallas rests a home for sale in Roanoke, Texas. This isn’t your everyday cookie cutter suburban home. Quite the contrary… It’s a classic car themed dream home!
For only $7,999,000 you can be the proud owner of a 7,419sqft 5 bedroom, 5.5+ bathroom property that sits on 10 acres. The coolest part about the house is the car/garage themed design. Every part of the house is designed and constructed to give the impression you are standing in a classic car service garage.
Beyond the five bedrooms and other rooms of the main house, this sprawling car haven is full of both fun and functionality. There are car lifts, a paint application booth, a tire changer, and antique memorabilia galore to get your fast and furious fix followed by fun around the fire pit and in the oversized tiered pool. This of course, doesn’t even include the actual garage that can hold up to ten cars.
In an interview with The Dallas Morning News, listing agent Christy Berry calls this 10-acre Roanoke property an “auto camp.” This property was originally designed as an “innovation center” for the Westlake-based automotive software firm Solera, Berry said. She said it was designed so that employees could come and think creatively while submerged in what is truly a world made for car lovers.
This property is so large it actually has two addresses. The main portion of the home has a primary suite, an additional bedroom, two bathrooms, one half-bathroom, a living room, a kitchen and a two-car garage.
The adjoining “entertaining house” has four bedrooms, a living room, a great room, a media room, a commercial-style bathroom and an additional half-bathroom. The entertaining house also has a two-car garage with wheel alignment machines and hydraulic lifts.
The estate has a massive garage with room for 10 cars, two lifts, a paint-mixing room and paint system. There is also a beautiful fireplace, a full bar to entertain and of course a full bathroom.
There is also an outdoor wet bar with plenty of seating and a full bathroom. Nearby is a tiered pool with a swim-up bar and a covered cooking area, along with four dog runs. The listing agent calls it “the ultimate in automotive escape.”
