8 North Texas homes are among the state’s priciest listings for May

Buyers looking to spend more than $10 million on a home or as much as $60 million have plenty of options to choose from in North Texas.

Eight homes in the region ranked among the most expensive new real estate listings in the state in May, according to a monthly list compiled by the Houston Association of Realtors.

The most expensive listing in the state to hit the market last month was in North Dallas, the $60 million Crespi Estate. The landmark home was once owned by Tom Hicks, a Dallas investor and former owner of the Texas Rangers and Dallas Stars.

The priciest listings in North Texas this month were scattered throughout the region, from Uptown Dallas and University Park to the Athens area and Decatur. Two were condo units near downtown Dallas.

CRESPI ESTATE

Built in the 1930s by Italian-born cotton baron Pio Crespi, the French chateau-inspired house is covered in Indiana limestone and decorative ironwork.

The estate includes a 3,347-square-foot guesthouse and a 4,836-square-foot pool house on landscaped grounds near the northwest corner of Walnut Hill and the Dallas North Tollway.

The estate was last listed for sale at $38 million before being acquired by representatives of the Charlee Lochridge Cox Dynasty Trust. The trust was founded by Dallas’ prominent Edwin L. Cox family.
