A contemporary French Provincial style home in the premium gated community of Avadene at Las Colinas with 73 homesites across 22 peaceful acres. Its thoughtful amenities include walking paths, pickleball courts and a convenient mail center. At the corner of Las Colinas Boulevard and La Villita Boulevard, Avadene at Las Colinas is remarkably close to all area airports, Interstate 635, state highways 114 and 161 and a wide range of pursuits, including the Water Street development, the Toyota Music Factory area, the Las Colinas Country Club, the Nelson Golf & Sports Club and the master-planned Campion Trails greenbelt. Avadene at Las Colinas is the creation of Mark Alexander, president of Alexander Hunt Distinct Homes and Alexander Homes Development Company. Each custom home is a generous 4,000 to 6,000 square feet, with energy-efficient features, floor-to-ceiling windows, elegant treatments, custom cabinetry, a gourmet kitchen with Thermador appliances, luxurious outdoor living and a range of features that may include a main-floor primary suite, temperature-controlled wine room and upstairs entertaining lounge with fireplace and wet bar. Each offers four or five spacious bedrooms with private baths. The architecture of each home is refreshingly unique -- a sleek, clean-lined take on one of several desirable global styles, from historic to contemporary, including Modern Tudor, Spanish Modern, French Provincial and Santa Barbara Modern. The rich materials used in the homes range from limestone, stucco and hand-cut stone to roofs of slate, tile and standing-seam metal.
