A rare architectural offering, 5747 Charlestown is a one-of-a-kind residence inspired by the Asian vernacular and crafted with precision, texture, and legacy in mind. Drawing from the colonial homes of Sri Lanka, India, and Singapore—filtered through the lens of celebrated architects like Geoffrey Bawa and Ed Tuttle—this home balances global influence with modern Texas sensibility. In collaboration with AIA architects Tommy Upchurch, Todd Hamilton, and D'Jelma C. Perkinson, Scott Marek, with interiors by Shawna Kuykendall, every detail feels considered and timeless.
The home forms a “village” of asymmetrical structures around a private courtyard with landscape design by renowned architect Christa McCall from Paper Kites, plunge pool, spa, and a temple-like loggia anchored by a wood-burning fireplace. Inside: soaring cathedral ceilings, exposed brick, floating steel stairs, steel and wood trusses, and rich finishes like Santos Rosewood, opal stone, and Arabescato marble. The gourmet kitchen features Sub-Zero, Wolf, and Asko appliances and a mahogany + Etimoe island. The primary suite is a spa-like retreat with heated floors, backlit stone walls, a private courtyard, and boutique-level closets.
An extraordinary home offering owners an extraordinary daily experience. And for guests and visiting family, a sensational place to enjoy and remember.
Located in the heart of Melshire Estates. Truly unlike anything else in Dallas.
